At the very bottom of the door, you can use a small wire to clear it. Here is some relevant information about the Audi A3: Exterior: In terms of appearance, the A3 inherits the style of the new generation of Audi products, redesigning the front end with a shield-shaped emblem and using lighting accents to provide a more dynamic style, making the A3 look very confident. The lines of the tailgate are also more rounded and simple, showcasing a balance between aerodynamics and aesthetic design, while also offering better headroom. Powertrain: The A3 comes with a variety of engine options, including 1.4L TDI, 1.9L TDI, 2.0L TDI, 1.6L inline-four, 2.0L FSI, and 3.2L V6 engines. To maximize the performance of the A3 3.2, the manufacturer not only equipped it with Audi's proud quattro all-wheel-drive system but also paired it with a DSG dual-clutch automatic transmission, typically found in top-performance vehicles, delivering extremely smooth and fast gear shifts.

As an amateur who often helps friends with car repairs, I've found that the Audi A3's drainage holes are mainly located in several key areas: the four corners of the sunroof are hidden at the top of the A-pillars and C-pillars, and a thin wire can be used to clear them from the top to drain water through the doors; crescent-shaped holes can be seen under the rubber strips at the bottom of the four doors; drainage holes in the rear panel are hidden under the rubber strips on both sides of the tailgate; the windshield drainage channels on both sides of the hood are prone to clogging by fallen leaves; and there's also the air conditioning drainage hole under the front passenger carpet. It's best to disassemble and clean these areas before the rainy season. Last week, my neighbor Lao Wang's A3 had its spare tire well turn into a small fish pond because the rear drainage holes were clogged.
