Default Re: "long term" reports?

11440 miles on mine and other than the driver side door latch needing replaced (microswitch issue) and my sunroof needing adjustment, i havent had any complaints.

I have also been riding on 19" wheels and 35 series tires and coilovers for almost 2 months now and do not hear any excessive rattles, creaks, or squeaks that i can tell.

excellent car and the build quality is top notch.

Default Hmmmm. I had checked the tool tray, spare, and hook, but not the cargo net.

I'll have to check that. Thanks!

Let's see those 19s. If you've posted pics, I can't find them.

Default Re: What's this about deformed door seals? How do I tell if I've got one?

Default 13,000 miles. Open sky rattle when open, but that's it. Still love it...

I'm coming from an A4 and TT and the build quality as good on the A3. The TT had the console braces that everyone seems to complain about on the A3, but I never even notice them while driving.

My only problem so far is a rattle from the rear of the sunroof when it's open. It being winter now, I'll get it fixed when the warmer weather returns. Great car, nible and quick and not bad on gas -- I average about 29 mpg consistently. Nav+ is terrific, BTW.
