Amazing quality and a lot of effort behind these videos!
Great video, Dino! It’s awesome to see you posting again.
I ended up buying the A35 AMG sedan over the RS3. I’ve driven it for ~25,000 km, and now I’m considering selling it and moving on. While I’ve really enjoyed the driving experience-the speed, handling, and daily usability-there have been some frustrating aspects. The biggest issues have been dealing with service, warranty repairs, and the overall interior craftsmanship, which has left a lot to be desired. Similar in some ways to what you have dealt with too.
That said, I’ve loved how the car drives. It’s quick, handles beautifully, and is surprisingly practical and comfortable for daily use.
It’s an interesting time in my life, and I’m curious to see where my car ownership journey will take me next.
Keep up the great work with the videos!

A35 amg isn't a rival compared to the rs3. The a45 is. Why didn't you buy that?
The exhaust and blow-off sound brutal!🔥
Funny to hear how Audi still hasn't managed to fix its overheating brake issue with the RS3 plattform over a decade now. I drive a RS3 8P and my brakes were cooked after a lap on the Nordschleife. Didn't get better after installing Endless carbon ceramic pads either. Get a brake cooling kit from Speed Engineering. It improves braking by alot and save you alot of money in the long run.
Well actually they have fixed it since you can run stock brakes on the ring for a couple of laps. I have not seen any other reports related to the discs so it might really have been a manufacturing issue. I can assure you I have pushed these brakes to their absolute limits with the factory delivered set without any problems.
odlicna analiza ja sam se javljao i ranije, imam iste probleme sa vetrobranom-soferkom od samog pocetka, za sada popravljam cipsove nisam je jos menjao, NA 16000km imam podrhtavanje pri kocenju sa vecih brzima na nize npr. sa 180km na 100km. znam da su u pitanju prednji diskovi ali ni skupi novi ne garantuju da ce trajati dugo, prosto diskovi su velikog precnika i skloni su deformaciji. ( dovoljno da se zaboravis i operes auto hladnom vodom nakon voznje ).Da li si osetio razliku sem u zvuku sa novim usisom? Koje letnje gume koristis, ja sam vrlo brzo potrosio Bridgestone koje su dosle sa novim autom.Pozdrav iz N.|Sada
Usis donosi +8 decibela registrovano u papirima. Lijetnje gume Michelin Pilot Sport 4s
@DinoDrives hvala na odgovoru
Nice vid! How did you manage to get the APR intake cleared with swiss authorities, i thought intakes were not homologated here? Also does that not affect your warranty on lots of engine parts failure?
If you buy it with the right paperwork you can get it cleared :D Nope they have to prove that the intake is responsible for a failliure legally. ;D
You put on silly miles bro! The engine tick is sketchy 😅
Daily driven across Europe multiple times a year in ALL conditions.
Got a rock chip 20km after picking the car up. On my 2nd windshield now after ~9000km. 2nd one also had a rock chip which has been fixed. Had it been on the drivers side I would have to replace it again
From the very beginning to 18000km I have had damage several times even from the smallest stone. I think it is a questionable quality of the windshield, replacement is expensive and is not a solution, do repairs as much as possible. We should wait for another manufacturer on the aftermarket, for example a cheaper Chinese replacement.
So frustrating the TCU is still fully locked…
And about the fog in the headlights, its not normal but happens to so much cars, not only vag.
Important when you wash your car, dont put the pressure washer directly on your lights.
This was just after some rain on the way home and it varies in amount of fog/wetness inside. So lets see how it goes.
Hey man, i was thinking isnt audi voiding your warranty with this apr intake ? What is the deal here ?
In switzerland it works like this that if an issue occurs and they void the warranty due to the intake. They have to prove the issue is because of the modification.
Example: my brakes fail and audi says you have an intake we wont help you. Legally not allowed. Unless they can prove the intake caused the faillure of the brakes.
The maximum an intake can do is cause more wear on the turbo thats it.
