I also have the A3 8Y Edition One. Did Confusedcactus manage to assign the Drive Select to the * button on the steering wheel? I've checked my manual and the settings on the MMI but it appears that this option is not available on my model although I agreed that it was available on older models. I'd like to be able to change the Drive Select options whilst I'm driving but the button is to the left of the dashboard so I'd have to stretch over, which is not a safe way to do it. Great for all the left hand drive cars though!! Thanks

This is my first post! I Took delivery of my new A3 in June. My previous car was an A4 Sport and I successfully installed a Nextbase 512G dash cam without any problem (thanks to a helpful YouTube Video). Prior to sale I removed the dashcam from the A4 and have now tried to re-install it in the A3 . Whilst I did not encounter any real difficulty in installing the wiring and hiding the cable it just will not work!! It's properly earthed and have used the fuse box in the glove compartment to find a suitable fuse slot. I think the cable itself must be faulty but before I buy a new hardwire kit has anyone successfully installed and hardwired a dash cam in the latest A3 (8Y) in case the problem is with the car and not the dashcam. I previously used a 5amp fuse with the A4 but they are all 7.5amp or higher in the A3. Many thanks David
