Question 3

What should I check when buying a used 2020 Audi A3 in NZ?

Accepted Answer

Most 2020 A3s in NZ are NZ-new 1.4 TFSI Sportback or sedan — imports exist but are the minority. Test the dual-clutch from cold and ask for S tronic fluid invoices. Pressure-test or at least inspect for coolant seepage at the pump/thermostat. On 1.4s, ask when the timing belt was last done. Request as much service history as possible - regular servicing matters more than promises from the seller. Run a PPSR check and review WOF history before buying. Compare condition and service records across listings - the best-value example is often the best-kept one not the cheapest.

Question 4

Is the 2020 Audi A3 a good used buy in New Zealand?

Accepted Answer

The 2020 A3 is the 8V facelift Audi NZ sold with the 1.4 TFSI 110kW as the volume Design car and a 2.0 TFSI Sport at 140kW. Virtual Cockpit became the cabin talking point. Sportback still outnumbers sedan.
