I've got a low mileage (51k) 3dr 55 plate 2.0tdi s-line quattro but I want the later smooth bumpers front and rear (rear needs parking sensor holes) Its not a bad spec car, but not brimming, Bose, Cruise Control, Parking Sensors, MFSW, Half Leather, centres are the type fabric, not alcantara.

I thought there would have been a few recommended breakers that people had used and have found helpful. Surprised nobody has found a good specialist breaker by now.

Hi guys and gals. I have a little shopping list of things id like for my A3, and what I was wondering was where is the best place to buy second hand parts from. Are the prices on Ebay for bits like S-Line bumpers inflated because they're on the bay or are they a realistic reflection of what I...

Me and a mate had a go about 6 weeks ago but could only get the indicators to come on with the side lights, I didn't want that so not sure if we did it wrong or that's just how it is

Hiya, just after some advise guy. The cambelt on my car came off last night, didn't snap. Looks like the tensioner hasn't been fitted properly or has collapsed because its out of alignment with the other pullys and you can see its not straight. 2 things, the belt was changed April 2013 at 37k...

I'm in Chesterfield, Derbyshire

Not forgot about doing this, got to find someone close to me with the right vagcom, tried it at work on vas but couldn't find the right channel number.

Not managed to get the car plugged in yet to a vagcom to try this out but as soon as I do I'll post weather it has been succesful

This looks promising :icon thumright:, thanks in advance

I've had a look in central electrics using a vas5051 but I think its going to be case of just knowing the channel number and altering it that way. Does anyone know the channel number to do that??

Cheers guys. Cruise lights rings a bell. What's VCDS Didn't know if it was in convenience (46) or central electrics (09)

I saw an 8P A3 on another forum, (Edition 38) where the owner had managed to get his indicators to light up and use then as marker lights. They weren't full brightness I think he said about 40%. Anyone else done this and is it just a case of altering a coding somewhere??

I've used Adrian Flux in the past for a number of years on a number of different cars but they really ****** me off last time so reluctant to give them my business again unfortunately. Sorry. Sky insurance sounds like they're worth a call. Green light is a name that I've heard of before but...

Hi guys. This is my first post. I recently bought an A3 8P 2.0tdi quattro S-Line right before my insurance policy is due for renewal. I was just wondering where the best place to go for insurance is. I'm 36 no points, had a minor bump this year but didn't claim but my present ins co (Hastings)...

Hello, Registered on here tonight. I'm on my third Audi but this is the first time I've been on here. I've used owners forums before and have met some decent people at shows and meets and people sharing information. Hopefully here will be no different. Looking forward to have a look through the...
