Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- Your usual group fits within 5 seats, including the driver. Check passenger space and any child-seat fit in person.
- You regularly make longer journeys: diesel may fit that pattern better than a routine of mostly short trips. Compare actual running costs.
- You would prefer less gear changing in traffic: the recorded automatic transmission may suit. Try how this exact gearbox behaves on a test drive.
Think twice if…
- You need to carry more than 5 people together: the advert records 5 seats, including the driver.
- Most journeys are short school runs or local trips: check whether this diesel has a particulate filter and what longer runs its handbook requires.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
Most 2019 A3 diesels use the 1.6 or 2.0 TDI engines paired to Audi’s S tronic (DSG) automatic — the gearbox needs its scheduled oil/service intervals. Diesels of this age commonly have a DPF and, on some 2.0 TDI versions, AdBlue/SCR kit; short urban use can cause DPF/EGR issues, so check for evidence of long-run use. As a premium compact, parts and dealer servicing cost more than mainstream hatchbacks, and diesel demand has softened so resale falls a bit faster than non-premium rivals.
- S tronic (DSG) service history — confirm gearbox oil/ filter changes and drive for any rough/hesitant shifts or warning lights
- DPF condition — ask if it’s been used on long motorway runs; look for persistent soot smoke, limp-mode or frequent regeneration warnings
- EGR and turbo behaviour — check for loss of power, rattles, excessive smoke or oil leaks around turbo/intercooler
- AdBlue system (if fitted) — check tank level history and for warning messages or injector faults
- suspension and brake wear — listen for knocks from front bushes and check brake discs/pads for age-related wear
