The two US spec TDIs I've seen at local dealers both had heater cables, stored in a clearly visible pocket in the cargo area. They were both identically equipped including the Premium Plus & cold weather packages, so the heater may be part of an option package.Is this a A3 TDI? Can you also look in the glove compartment and see if there is a cable heater in the Audi A3? Someone emailed me and said that their Audi A3 TDI US spec (located in Chicago) had a cable for a heater. I would like to confirm this.
I didn't inquire as to where they plug into the car, as I'd probably forget before I take delivery on mine (just slipped 3 weeks to early February, due to parts shortages).
