    My S3 is being detailed... [Photos]

    Car does look good but surely after a few washes the swirls will be back again (even with the 2 bucket and mitt method) and a detail required again?

    503.00 or 503.01 for A3 3.2 V6?

    Thanks to all who have replied to ths thread and given me advice :) I have now had the oil replaced by the main dealer and they have confirmed no damage would have been done due to the oil being within its 12 month life (only managed todo 1500 miles in the 4 months) :). SLX 2 is what I now...

    Guess what I've been doing at the dealers?

    Will be interesting hearing how different to a 3.2 the S3 really is, mind you the compare will be a DSG and a manual.

    Might be a better post in the 8L S3 forum, but maybe someone does know on here as there a few 8L S3 > 8P converts ?

    Symphony II » RNS-E sat nav Retrofit

    Thats a great write up Ben, I've also go the symph 2 and would like to move to an RNS-E. However I have already got the cd-sat nav. Can the 2 work together or would the cd-sat nav become redundant? Also can you buy the tv module reasonably cheap also?

    Athrancite alloys on an Avus A3?

    Has anyone got a pic or could do me a photoshop of a 3-door A3 (pre-facelift) in Avus with athrancite alloys on it? I quite like the B5 RS4 or the ones I have C6 RS6 reps. Cheers in advance.

    Brake Fluid Service ?

    Ok, cheers for that Neil.c. I really just wanted to know whether other people who have had their brake fluid service done by a maindealer, but not done as part of a main service have had their service book stamped or updated anywhere? Anyone add any more?

    Quattro transmission fluid change?

    Do they mean haldex? if so its done on mileage (20k or 40k dependant on age of your car from what I have read, newer cars are 40k). Maybe they have bugged your car and know the without even speaking to you?

    Fitting 20" Wheels On Audi A3

    Seen 20's on a TT1, way to big inho. I would have thought the handling would be screwed with 20's on an A3 as you would really have to go for a non OEM ET and the rubber's profile would be minute. Plus i thing you will need to be good with a grinder too if you want to lower the car?

    503.00 or 503.01 for A3 3.2 V6?

    Cheers guys, 504.00 seems to be dealers choice, IIRC ths is the replacement for 503.00, 503.01 and others? Brighton Audi are still only going to swap the oil for LongLife 2 which if i remember is now not even available to buy privately ?...so now they are swapping the wrong oil with right but...

    Coolant Usage - Oh My God!!!

    Why should you, the coolant system is a closed one and the average person would just see a coolant light reappearing on the dash causing you you to buy coolant and top up and then arrange another visit. IMHO they should have road tested it, let the car cool down then give you the keys back when...
