Man, honestly you couldn't have explained that whole car functions better, this is hands down the best review i've seen on youtube my g, this is my dream car!
@willmotivation Prefer my 911 Carerra 4 GTS as daily driver over my RS3 as never have rear passengers or do Home Depot runs...haha...but a few convenience things you might find handy... - Long press door handle indent if your hands are full and you notice an open window or moonroof and it'll automatically close them and lock vehicle. Same dealio on key fob. Long press unlock button or indent to open all windows and tip up moonroof for car to cool down if activated in MMI. - Parking brake doesn't auto-disengage on throttle unless seatbelt is fastened. - Always need to leave side mirror adjustment knob to right if reverse mirror dip feature to activate. You need to adjust mirror tilt down while vehicle is in reverse. Driving and reverse tilt mirror positions and also steeriing wheel position (if you have powered steering column adjustment) is saved with seat memory button and key fob. - If you hold the ESP (Traction Control) button for around 10-15 seconds it should stay off till ignition is shut off and Launch Control will engage at a higher RPMS range instead. - If you have Matrix LED headlights option there should be a start-up and lock animation. - If you hit climate control button immediately after you shut off vehicle the climate controls will stay on for 15 mins or so even with vehicle off - Hold wiper stalk down for a few seconds after shutting off car to put into service mode for cleaning or for lifting off windshield when parked in snowy conditions.
@@WillMotivation Haha. Just discover over time with consistent Audi/Porsche ownership. Have never even opened up any manual in my life. ECU or TCU Stage 2 tunes aside...This is probably an uncommon opinion but my best mod for the RS3...or any of my whips for that matter...will always be mobile remote start system with a smartphone module... Of course parking your whip in a garage overnight helps but getting that whip cooled down or warmed up and/or windows defrosted long before I ever get into it when out and about town is a must. Nothing worse than stepping into a scorching vehicle or having to scrape your frozen windshield. It's the first thing I get installed every time the vehicle rolls out of the dealership. That and I always hide a de-chirped Apple AirTag somewhere in the vehicle. Lol.
This looks so good! The red interior seats are fire, kemora grey is boominn. You have this specd out so nice it’s the best looking rs3 I’ve seen that’s OEM
I just put a IE carbon intake on my '23 RS3 and man did it change the tone. Nice and throaty and you can hear the DV woosh and hear the turbo spool a little more.
401 on the hp. Most of these are putting down 380-400whp, so they are underrated.layer? I just got an allocation for a '24. I'll probably get it early next year. Can't wait!
The trunk thing is both annoying and great at the same time. If you get it right then it closes, no prints on your trunk lid. But if not you try again or just put fingerprints on the trunk. When it closes its so satisfying. Curious about the mirror dip. Do you still need to have it selected on the right mirror for it to work? PS the steering won't jerk back if you use your signal to change lanes. But lane keep can be good but sucks when the lines are faded etc
The parking brake one, all my Audis had from 2016, just had to have your seatbelt on, but they do update software so my 2017 q2 now also has it, just hit the gas and the e brake releases
Nice man! I have the 24 S3 and legit use my adaptive cruise control every day. It is the best feature in the world haha. Took a while to trust but once when you do, you won’t go back.
I was under the impression that when you flick the little shifter down, you don't go into full sport mode, but you put the transmission into sport mode, which makes the shifts more aggressive, and holds the revs longer. Correct me if I'm wrong please
@@WillMotivation yeah I just picked it up today. Driving home I was playing with it and so if you flick the little shifter down while you're in third gear let's say it'll say S3. Which is sport transmission. If you flick it again, it'll say D3. Which is a less aggressive setting for the transmission. Also if you're sitting in park and the car is idling and it's in D, and you flick it down, you'll hear the valves open and the exhaust and engine will get a lot louder, and then it'll say S.
Very informative. I recently picked up an S3. In Daytona grey. I have an R8 in the same color. Loved the color so much I just had to do it. Looks almost Matt in certain light. They make the best cars.
I can't get over just how baller this 2023 looks. Quite the improvement over the last gen it seems and that RS front grill is the bomb. When I test drove the 2019 RS3 back in June (I was this close to buying it) I noticed it took the corners very well and drove quite nicely in Comfort mode. It sounded great and hugged me in my seat really well. Car was quick and the cockpit was amazing. What I did notice was that the car had to be in Sport mode to feel fast though. I got it to go from a really well but had to really drill the throttle pretty hard. On the freeway I noticed it sat high and caught wind pretty easy which I was surprised about. I think the latest gen might sit lower then...
Thanks a lot for this review Mr Will, you so good at what you do I’m enjoying the review I haven’t even fished the video yet 😁 i have been the biggest fan of Audi since primary school
The steering isn’t “auto drive” even though it will do it, it’s a lane departure warning. Leave your hand off the steering wheel and it will give you a warning. It even popped up on your screen.
I just picked my 2024 glacier white up today. One thing I noticed is the folding mirrors will fold when you lock the car with the key fob. However when you unlock the car with the key fob they don't unfold. The only way for them to unfold is once you get in the car and start the car. Then they unfold. I went into the infotainment and tried to see if there was a way to change that but couldn't find a way. I know other cars mirrors unfold when your walking to the car and you unlock the doors with the key fob. Then they just automatically unfold. Since you own the car, do you know if there is a way to do it that way, or do you have to just get in and start the car for the mirrors to unfold. PS... I know there's a little switch inside of the door that you can turn to unfold and fold the mirrors at will. But besides that, it doesn't seem like there's a way to have the mirrors unfold from outside the car by using the unlock button on the key fob. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Sorry for the long post. Great video by the way!
How about a tutorial on how to get the car to my house? PS need auto start and get that air conditioner going before you get in. I always dream about the Rs6 but that car is very nice too. I believe if you turn on your blinker, the wheel lets go of auto
I’ve never seen the magma red seats in these… I’ve only seen the black, the taupe/grey with red stitching, the black with red contrast stitching, and the latest one I’ve seen has these red accents on the shoulders. I’ve never seen the solid red magma red interior that you see in other Audis like the SQ5/S5 etc. that interior is popular and I look at these nationwide all the time, I’ve never seen red seats…
@@carlotlife5013m340 is a monster definitely a better car than rs3 and has more build potential only issue is rs3 hold value way better and looks way better
You got me thinking about switching my order from turbo blue to kemora gray before it freezes. What you think about the RS design package? I selected that as an option as well
I have the same warning light in my dash in my S3. Its an issue with the front radar. Let me know when and if you get it fixed what it cost please. I was going to fix mine myself but havent had the time.
Yessir Will!!! Lord have mercy 😮Beautiful paint!!!! Love it more than Nardo! Mashallah is all I can say, I don’t make much so I just drive a old 2006 Camry but hopefully one I can enjoy a German car, my dream car would be a RS3 or even just a S3 🙏🙏🙏 💪👌💯👌. What’s our boy Hamza up to? I bet he killin that Beamer!!! Love when y’all collab bro! Hope all is well. Your bro J from MN!
What's up with the sunroof, select option based on area? Can't seem to find it in any spec for the 2024. And no 360 camera option is a letdown for a $70k 2024. Plus them getting rid of the flat steering wheel.
I think anyone who buys this cars doesn't need the absolute basic unless they're four years old ffs just do a walk around & play background beats dude, i mean really
Ive watched some many reviews of this car and this was probably the best one, well done.
Thank you
Man, honestly you couldn't have explained that whole car functions better, this is hands down the best review i've seen on youtube my g, this is my dream car!

How much do they cost?
They're having a sale so it was 1,039.99USD, installed myself@@WillMotivation
Beautiful car and color . A lot of people underestimate it base on size , but it’s nothing to play with

I noticed a yellow light on the mirror when a car was approaching on the left, pretty cool.😎
Yep that’s the blind spot monitoring

In two years, I’m either getting this or the RS5. 🙏
Unfortunately no more coupe rs5. Now it's sedan or avant hybrid
Thanks a lot for this review Mr Will, you so good at what you do I’m enjoying the review I haven’t even fished the video yet 😁 i have been the biggest fan of Audi since primary school
I'm waiting for the APR exhaust, decided against the AWE switchpath
IROZ worth a mention? I've been researching parts - Eventuri intake for the win. Seems to be the best.
Just got myself a 24 glacier White. And that front splitter looks perfect. Is it ECS or maxton v2 if I may ask?
Maxton bro and congrats ! I’ve got a python yellow coming soon

@@WillMotivation thanks for the reply
Bru I actually own this car and still learned stuff. Super indepth video my dude.
haha glad it was useful!
The park gas release works on my 2016 PFL
you can also hold the paddle shifters to go back into auto mode

My 2019 rs3 the parking brake releases when you press the accelerator
Finally! 2024 RS3 on order!
Ordered mine 2 months ago. They said like 6-8 months and I cant wait
This is the 1st 8y rs3 I’ve seen with the normal dials on VC
Glad I got the 2022 with the central homelink. Can add more devices and longer range.
Longer range?
@@WillMotivation it has an amp and antennas. Works about a block away if I need to where the mirror when I had it only worked a few houses down.
Great video ! I am in love with that car.
Btw, how did you put Floyd M. at the end ?? 😮
Thanks!! As for Floyd he did it for me because I donated to a charity he supports
@@WillMotivation wow ! It was amazing and I surprising as well !! Fantastic ! 😃

Hehehe. Yes it’s a one of one. ☝🏽
@@WillMotivation did you get those custom or from the factory u got it
Do you know how to check the engine oil level from the MMI, if there is such a function? Thanks
Hope to get this car one day
Man the back seat though no leg room
Which other performance Audi or car would you recommend if you need a little more space in the back
M340i better in every way
Rs5 four door
@@1lastacedefinitely not lol
@@carlotlife5013m340 is a monster definitely a better car than rs3 and has more build potential only issue is rs3 hold value way better and looks way better
Did they remove the “drift” mode in the drive selection?
It’s still there called rs rear and it’s super hard to get the rest end loose
What are you lowered on?
Their MMI and lights. The innovators.
Facts
That rs3 2024 have hand off sensing and vibrating function on steering wheel?
Yes.
You got me thinking about switching my order from turbo blue to kemora gray before it freezes. What you think about the RS design package? I selected that as an option as well
Both colors are dope. And yea I’m the es design package since there are not many options you might as well add it for reseale
I have the same warning light in my dash in my S3. Its an issue with the front radar. Let me know when and if you get it fixed what it cost please. I was going to fix mine myself but havent had the time.
It comes on and off depending on how dirty the front of the car is.
hey bro good video, good to see this car overseas
Hey, thanks! Appreciate the view and comment!
How did you get red interior?! Was that an option?
I run an auto customization business called Motivo. I can get you done if you want just email me
I will get one of these one day😍
Did you cross shop this car with any other model out there?
What happened to the M4? Need more content
Coming soon. New m4 replacement coming?
I noticed the coil overs in the trunk. Are they for the RS3?
Aventador sv springs
Not many differences between 8V and 8Y my 2020 RS3 has many of the options besides the touch screen Stage1 tune and DSG it would rip new RS3
Awesome
Haha you fucked up you wish you bought the new one 😂😂😂

Did they stop making full red seats?
It was customized by my shop Motivation Studios.
@@WillMotivationhow much?
Did Audi get rid of the red seats for 2024? I do not see this option on the 2024s. 🤔
It was a custom setup that I did myself after I got the car.
Great video bro
Appreciate it
voy a ver este video de como manejar el rs3 cuando lo tenga
How the hell do you have red seats 😂. My green 24 didn’t come like that
It was custom done by my business Motivo spec
That is a nice neighborhood
💪🏾 WILL 😎 MOTIVATION 💯
When you say 425 you talking about wheel horsepower ? Cause crank they 500
I support you
Thanks
When u goin stage 2 bro
Yo did it just tell you "police reported ahead"?
Yep
What's up with the sunroof, select option based on area? Can't seem to find it in any spec for the 2024. And no 360 camera option is a letdown for a $70k 2024. Plus them getting rid of the flat steering wheel.
Can't wait to see the finish house investment project's WILL 💪🏾💯
Almost ready
You the man for this!
How u got the red interior???
I got connects at Audi ….
Just kidding. I had it done at an interior shop in chicago. Was very expensive but it looks factory
@@WillMotivation thiso r that seat cover
Take off the emo chains
What’s that?
where's the shift knob?
Right
If you are spending a significant amount of time letting your Audi RS3 drive itself, you're doing it wrong. LOL! 😂🤣😆
i love your video.
