    Erratic / rough idle in 8P S3 - and how it was fixed

    Just thought I'd post this for the sake of anyone that gets these faults and decides to use the search function: I had rough idling - When pulling up to a stop, the revs wouldn't drop all the way down to ~800rpm, instead lingering around 1000rpm and then slowly rising to approx 1300rpm and...

    PROBLEM!!! with my s3 8p

    Still under warranty by any chance? Scan with VCDS (vagcom) for a proper error description, or take it to the dealers and ask them

    Emission Control Light

    Some faults are practically harmless for day to day driving whereas others need to be checked immediately. In the absence of any other dramatic message on the DIS, I'd say (in my non-mechanic's opinion) it's safe to get it to a workshop, but wouldn't want to do too much more without at least...

    Emission Control Light

    Find someone with VAGCOM / VCDS and see if it finds any codes. Apparently (and I'm going off what an Audi tech said to me), their VAS whatever systems don't report the same faults as VCDS, or require a higher frequency to appear as faults. My VCDS showed a logged fault (about idle control RPM...

    VCDS tweak for DRLs?

    VCDS tweak for DRLs?

    Thanks, this is partially the solution... With this, front indicators both come on and stay on when the main bixenon headlights are on (and on low-beam (or whatever it's called) too)

    VCDS tweak for DRLs?

    I have a DRL switch (well on/off spinning dial anyway), it's just that it controls the bulbs next to my bixenons, not the fogs/indicators

    VCDS tweak for DRLs?

    Maybe. And also probably in Australia too but I would like to know if it is possible...

    VCDS tweak for DRLs?

    Hello all, I have a pre-facelift 8P S3... Was wondering how this kind of behavior can be enabled using VCDS / Vagcom: http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i244/kciker337/DSC_0244.jpg Using fog lights and/or indicators as DRLs. Have had a look around module 09 at the long coding and I can't figure...
