[Carrg]

Do yours fold in remotely from the keyfob when holding close?

Can't get mine to work?

Garry,

Not tried that to be honest, but I've always used the door card switch.

Hows the rattles...gone?

[Carrg]

Cheers Wayne,

All other VAG's I've had the mirrors fold in on holding the close button??

Er no the door card is now ill fitting and fouls door surround. Window even creaks could cry!!
Have a meeting with them today

Hows you finding yours??

[Moschop5]

Yeah okay, washed it myself this weekend and waxed it...it looks great parked outside. Will PM you later. but busy at work at the mo...

Hi.

Some Audis can do this - but the car would need to have the folding mirror option AND be an Audi with MMI dashboard equipment. This narrows it down to A6 C6, A4 and A5 B8, Q7s, Q5, A6 C7, A7, some later model A8 D3s and new model A8 D4.

Sadly the RS3 doesn't have this and I'm not sure it can be retro - hacked to do it… CraigyB might know a way?

When I had Hazydayz retro fit cruise to my RS3 I asked them to try and code the mirrors to fold when the car is locked. No such luck as apparently its not available on the A3.

Only tweak they could find was to make the car emit a small beep when you lock it which is surprisingly useful when walking away from the car....

folding mirrors are an option on the RS3 £455

i don't like it, freaks me the fook out every time you get in and they fold back, i catch it out the corner of my eye and thinks someone's trying to car jack me ...

You're correct, although It's only £125 if you don't want the auto dimming feature.

[Carrg]

So I have the £125 elec folding mirror option but no way off operating from the key fob.
Liked it on the cupra ideal as you walk away knowing its locked.

+ 1

Do the window go up and down via the key fob like the Cupra?

Also how you finding it compared to the Cupra, sold mine last Thursday so just waiting now.. Was running Stage 2 so how's the power etc

[Carrg]

Hi Mate,

Yes the windows work from fob once you have ticked the option in the screen menu.

Its grips unlike the cupra but a stg2+ 2.0TFSI is very aggresive and fun. Guess cannot compared mapped to std.
I'm still taking my time (900mls) but the speed at which you can pull off is great. You are going faster than it feels also. Would like to get the 2.5 mapped!
I'd say to you fully check you are happy with build quality tho Mate as I've been having some major issues!
The cupra is real value for money. Little bits of the A3 are dissapointing.

[Adams RS]

900 miles, so still on the taking it easy stage. How's the running in going?

Yeah get what you mean mapped v standard, always hard to compare.

Ok thanks for the advise, I'll make sure I check
it all over but hope it will all be ok

[Carrg]

Er just out of the taking it easy stage. Impatient! I can feel the car getting faster and fuel eco is rising! Oh to 21mpg lol!

Hope it will be ok too.

Get what you wanted for the Cupra, sold private, miss it??

[Adams RS]

Haha, sure I will be the same! 21mpg... Hope it gets better!

Yeah didn't do too bad, went in Autotrader on the Tuesday and went by the Thursday, yeah do
miss it, done 60,000 miles in it over 5 years and was great

Can't wait for the RS though..

You going to Gti international or anything?

[Carrg]

Cheers and me!

Ah good glad for you. Miss mine now. Did 8,000 in 3yrs, second car but loved it to bits!

The issues with the RS have spoilt it somewhat...

Yeah prob was looking at Castle Combe on 28.04.12 just need to get out of a suit fitting on the same day now lol.
