I’ve got one that I’ve had on and off for the last 10 years mines got most extras from full leather to parking aid . There’s not many of them left hence why I’m keeping mine there’s less of them now than the s3’s and they are going up I want one of them aswell now. I’ve never had any problems...

you can do rack in about hour and half i had to do mine on last s3 and have now got to do it on current one pretty easy straight forward job

A3 8p one is the same you need to check yours as theres a earlier type and later type depending on year of your car and yours is on cross over. i only say this as plug is different. Mine needs doing to but will do it when i do clutch in couple of weeks

Its common on them bearings in the rack go so you can move arms up and down. Wouldnt be as bad if they sorted the pot holes out wouldnt have these problems

Yeah i would to. Your running serious power mind

Ebay mate £100 upwards normally pretty good or if i remember rightly euros do them theres 2 types

Il go for spec then thanks. Are you using there aluminium flywheel aswell?

Was just looking at these clutches/flywheel they come up cheaper than the loba/sach kit im about to go stg 2+ with mine but clutch needs doing first as slipping under boost. so S3ALEX are spec a good all round clutch? As dont really fancy pulling box out again any time soon

Yeah your not wrong there just take plug out of quadlock connector or vag com on it and turn it off 2 sec job no messing about

Im 25 with 7 years no claims and my s3 comes in at £410 with admiral full comp protected no claims

Thought it was under passenger seat on 8p

Probably thermostat stuck open, or coolant temp sensor

From what i remember on mine you have to enable nav in gateway list. You just need vag com it doesnt require software its a pretty straight forward job

S3 on stage 1 good on stage 1, on stage 2+ normally sachs uprated pressure plate and disc with oe dual mass or solid flywheel conversion. Depends what power you are after

It acts as a engine management light on diesel turbo over boosting possibly or a misfire under load
