Where is the tool kit located in the Audi A3?

The tool kit in the Audi A3 is located under the trunk lid or beneath the front passenger seat. Model Positioning: The Audi A3 is a compact sedan under the Audi brand, available in both sedan and hatchback versions. The A3 also has high-performance variants, namely the S3 and RS3. Powertrain Specifications: The 1.4-liter turbocharged engine in the Audi A3 delivers 150 horsepower and a maximum torque of 250 Nm. This engine achieves its peak power output between 5,000 and 6,000 rpm, with maximum torque available from 1,750 to 3,000 rpm. It features direct fuel injection technology and utilizes an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block.

Last week I was also looking for this. In the Audi A3, you can see the tool kit by lifting the trunk floor panel. I took it apart and found a jack, tow hook, and anti-theft wheel nut wrench inside. Some older models place the tool kit next to the spare tire, but the sedan version might hide it right above the spare tire. If you can't even find the spare tire, try feeling along the side walls of the trunk—some versions have built-in hidden compartments. Remember to clear out any clutter before use, or you might get the floor panel stuck. The tool bag is usually secured with Velcro, so don’t pull too hard when opening it. Once when I helped a neighbor change a tire, I found his tool bag deformed from being crushed under spare windshield washer fluid, so it’s important to organize storage with proper layering.

When I first got the car, I was confused too. Later I found the Audi A3 toolkit always rolling around in the trunk. In the hatchback version, just lift the floor panel to meet the tool kit, while the sedan version requires removing the spare tire first. I've carefully checked the tool bag - there are two wrenches (long and short), and the jack lever needs self-assembly. Once during a midnight tire change, I discovered the anti-theft wheel bolt adapter was missing. I recommend checking if everything's complete when idle. Newer models might place it in the side mesh pocket. If the trunk seems empty, try pressing the bottom mat's corners - hear any buckle clicks? Important note: Don't let the toolkit soak in water, plastic parts may become brittle and crack.

The toolkit for my 2018 Audi A3 lies directly beneath the trunk floor panel. Upon removing the black cover, you'll immediately spot the red tool pouch containing the warning triangle and jack stand. Remember the pouch opening is sealed with hook-and-loop fasteners—be careful not to snag the lining fabric when pulling it open. From my three-time experience: always tighten the crank handle into the jack's threaded socket, otherwise the force may cause thread stripping. If the short tow hook won't screw into the front bumper, consult the manual to locate hidden mounting points. Some models have zippered sidewall pockets in the trunk—those are only for first-aid kits, while the tool pouch remains in its original position.
