To change an engine on an Audi with all the electronics and imobiliser stuff is a nightmare. You'd be far better off changing the car. If the car is sentimental and you're adamant to do it then the best option would be to buy another A3 that is ULEZ compliant and changing everything over including engine, gearbox, ECU, full wiring loom, instrument cluster, high pressure fuel pump etc.

Instrument cluster issues are well documented. I'd recommend getting an auto electrician to take a look at the power drain.

Where abouts is it leaking from? Leaking injector seals are common.

Glad you got sorted 🙂

I think it might be worth you speaking to Audi customer services as you'll need a build certificate from them. You might also need a certificate of conformity from them to confirm the vehicle emissions to help with correct taxation class.

I suspect it's in the boot either right or left side panel.

I had a towbar fitted to my ford Kuga daily by buzz towbars. They come to you to fit. Very knowledgeable and highly recommend.

What fault codes?

I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up

Fingers crossed it's the actuators

I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up as it could be a N issue with the sensor, wiring or module

I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up as it sounds like level is fine.

Facelift bumper will fit if you fit the facelift rings, bumper and headlights.

You can get the gearbox ECU remapped too. But if damage is done you might have to change megatronics unit
