Just joined the A3 family.. got some questions :)
Hi guys, I picked up a quattro premium 2.0 A3 last Thursday in Meteor Grey.. I absolutely love the car since it came out!
I do have a few questions/concerns that I realized after driving it for a couple days.. I do apologize in advance if I am a noob.. I did drive a yaris before this one
1) Start up from stand still is a bit "slow".. maybe this is due to the DSG upshifting to 2nd when 1st gear hit 1500 RPM..
2) The famous engine noise that i hear when the car is between 2200-2500 RPM.. This was actually mentioned in another thread as well
3) Audi concert - MIX CD for mp3 doesn't work. Meaning I have multiple folders for my mp3s, mix folder works, but I thought MIX cd should just disregard all folders and play all music
4) Bluetooth sync address book with blackberry - was unable to sync with my bb address book for a couple days, I then found the solution, which is to clear your call logs.. and that worked after
All in all, love the car.. any tips in caring for it in the winter time? especially interior care for leather. thanks everyone!

I can't help with 2-4, but for #1, if you really mean to launch, stomp on it and it won't upshift immediately. Or, move it to manual control. A turbo motor at 1500rpm is simply not making much torque.
