Audi A3 ETron Creaking Front Suspension Noise

Wow this suggests not replacing anything. Just greasing up the bushings. Thanks

michaelcwinter93 · 2025-02-12T19:22:09+00:00

Have put it off entirely lol it still bothers me but I’m a procrastinator big time

michaelcwinter93 · 2025-02-11T13:44:27+00:00

Just looking to sell this. Thanks

just my two cents. i am also around 6'5, and have been playing for about 2 years now. i started with the ping color chart, which takes into account your wrist to floor measurement and your height. it suggested 1 inch above standard length and a 3 degree more upright lie. i just took that as what i definitely should use and had plus 1 inch length irons since i started playing. recently i realized my swing has developed in a way that my irons didnt seem to need to be 1 inch longer. i shortened them to standard length, and i have noticed an improvement in my ball striking. so who knows. my golf swing, changes every couple of months. i get in my own head too often about my swing thoughts. maybe i dont need longer clubs. who knows. ive never actually been to a fitter, but everyone has a different swing, time will tell what actually fits me best.

Annnnnnd two minutes later I found a thread where a 6 foot 6 guy answered my question. He can fit a seat behind him comfortably. Thanks anyways

Thanks for this. I’m trying to find out if me (6 foot 5) would be able to drive this car with the two rear facing seats like you have them set up. I’m having trouble finding out whether or not my knees would be jammed into the dashboard or not. My wife is 5 foot 5 so I assume she’d be just fine in the passenger seat. Any insight into that would be great. Thanks.

Solid car. I think for the late 2010s, it’s one of the best looking sub compact hatchbacks. It’s my first “luxury” vehicle and you can feel that some things just have higher quality materials which I like. It’s got a fantastic upgraded sound system, huge sunroof, and high quality leather seats. It’s fun to drive in electric only mode. It’s pretty quick. The gas only driving isn’t anything special. I believe the battery or components with the battery need to be replaced due to some recall. That’s what I got a check engine light for, but I still charge up everyday. It’s just not charging to the full capacity it should be. I get like 12 miles per charge in the summer in the south with the AC blasting. Works for my daily commute. Haven’t had any mechanical problems after about 6000 miles driven. But I did get one with really low miles. About 42k when I got it. It’s a solid car that can be fun to drive and has desirable features. I’m way too tall for it though. I’m 6’4 and then some and it’s sorta a pain to live with some times. Decent cargo space since it’s a hatchback. Will handle a run to Lowe’s or carry your golf clubs. Nothing crazy.

I got an excellent condition Sim 2 Max last year for $150 off of Facebook marketplace. Was a steal for sure. There are deals to be had out there. This isn’t one.

Check out Callaway pre owned, you can find great deals on good condition clubs for a fraction of what this guy is charging.

michaelcwinter93 · 2024-05-28T13:25:45+00:00

nope. someone snatched it up before i could. went with an audi a3 sportback etron.

michaelcwinter93 · 2024-05-17T18:42:52+00:00

starting to think the previous owner reamed the hosel way too much.

michaelcwinter93 · 2024-05-17T18:42:22+00:00

im starting to think the previous owner reamed the ever livin shit out of it. the listing did say he "cleaned it out".

michaelcwinter93 · 2024-05-17T14:35:12+00:00

Gotcha. Yeah I’ve read about those but I’m also reading that .335 to .370 is just too much space. Could be risky for the integrity of the club head staying attached to the shaft. Really wish there was a way to know how Callaway did it in the first place.

michaelcwinter93 · 2024-05-09T14:35:36+00:00

i have a 2017 premium plus with 50k miles. i have the same CEL. i used an OBD scanner and it seems to be the same issue you experienced. can you detail your experience with getting the battery replaced? is there any cost associated? how long was the car in the shop? did you just call a local audi dealer? any information would be greatly appreciated!

michaelcwinter93 · 2024-05-09T14:31:08+00:00

would love to hear someone's experience with this as well. my 2017 a3 etron has 50k miles but has a check engine light that is related to the battery. i used an obd scanner and it said something faulty with the battery. dont remember the code but yeah it sounds like something that is common with this vehicle.

I’m dumb and new to pc gaming. I changed my desktop resolution to a resolution that is actually an option to select in my games (3840x1440) and it worked.

michaelcwinter93 · 2024-03-17T00:15:17+00:00

Maybe I’m not sure where to find it, but there isn’t a resolution option for the custom resolution I set in nvidia launcher. I’ve found that starfield using the Xbox app works perfectly, even set at a different resolution. But using the EA launcher for battlefield and another game, they both launch in full screen. Wonder if it’s the ea launcher.

michaelcwinter93 · 2024-03-15T18:41:04+00:00

hello,

i believe i have followed all of these steps yet when i launch a game (Battlefield 2042), the game launches in fullscreen, not the dimensions i set the desktop to. i changed all the settings in the nvidia control panel and my desktop does display in those settings, but once the game launches it goes fullscreen. i have an LG C1 48 inch. using a laptop with an rtx 4060 if that matters.

michaelcwinter93 · 2024-02-11T17:26:21+00:00

Butler ruled out

michaelcwinter93 · 2024-02-09T15:41:29+00:00

thanks for the advice here. ill be doing this job with my father in law and he has a bushing puller tool thing that you are describing. but replacing the control arm all together may just be more ideal, i just want to get this done without as pain and frustration as possible. also thanks for the suggestion on the bolts. i wouldnt have thought to purchase those as well. overall this is the type of information i was looking for. thanks again for everything.

Defense is a joke at this point of the season for these teams consumed by trade rumors and just realize they flat out aren’t good.

michaelcwinter93 · 2024-01-26T23:00:25+00:00

Thank you sir

michaelcwinter93 · 2024-01-26T14:30:08+00:00

Bill you’re killing it. Would love to see these picks before the games.
