I noticed there isnt really a car community on Lemmy, but some of you guys must be driving cars....!

Im only asking because I just leased a new Volvo XC-40 and its amazing to drive. Really, really happy every time i get into it. Also because the music system is pretty damn good and I can play deezer songs and also music from usb stick. :)

Well, I do not know about current gen A3s, mine (8P with the older 2 liter diesel) currently only has the "higher idle" problem, where the ECU thinks that there is not enough voltage in the system while the engine's running (even though it is 13.8V). I believe it is due to the alternator's age, but I have to check.

Prior to that it had a coolant leak due to the EGR cooler and other problems stemming from the pre-owner's total neglect regarding maintenance, but nothing that hinders me from passing inspection... yet.
