What have you done with your fog lights?

That's exactly how the car's performing - as if it doesn't have a turbo!

Cheers. My car's therefore not in limp mode. Hopefully it's something nice and simple.

Hi folks, Seem to be experience a loss in performance in the S3, going to get it booked into my local specialist ASAP. Basically my question is .... How limp is limp mode? Cheers, G.

Haven't tried anything as yet, it just started yesterday and I have no idea why it is doing it!

Hoping someone might be able to shed some light on this. When I turn on my ignition my rev counter needle starts to vibrate really fast around 0 and this continues when I start the engine. About 10 seconds after I start the engine the needle sorts itself out and sits at normal idle. There is no...

:applaus:I couldn't have answered that question better myself, without dusting off the old "Principles of Flight" books from ground school!!! Nowadays I just do what the computer tells me!!! As for your other questions, I fly the Airbus A319 on domestic and short haul European routes and yes I...

They're not really that different to be honest. Both are in essence 3 door "hot hatches". The S3 has much more of a civilised cabin that's better to be in if your going to be covering larger mileage/longer journeys. That's the reason I changed from the CTR, I started doing a lot more miles and...

There's a very real chance that the 911 will be my next car. A couple of workmates have them and they are absolutely fantastic, one is a P-plate 993 carerra 2, one is a 996 carerra 4s and the other is a 997 carerra s. I can't help but look at the 993 everytime I walk past it in the car park but...

Previous to the S3 I had a Civic Type-R, and I had a shot in one of these "tegs" when I was looking at the Civic. In my opinion they are both massively fun cars to drive but I'm not sure that they are that cool!!!

Yup, gotta love the MKII. I've owned a couple, had a white F plate GTI 8V small bumper, and a Royal Blue H plate GTI 8V big bumper. Loved them both. Also had a MKI GTI, now that is a cool car, my one was a bit of a dog though!

I agree with Geordie Mike and 28V6, there is plenty of money to be made in the offshore industry in Aberdeen. Apart from the major Oil companies such as Shell, B.P. etc there are also loads of consultancies and specialists you could work for. Try companies such as Wood Group, Schlumberger...

I'm a First Officer (co-pilot) for the worlds favourite airline. Used to be a Structural Engineer in the oil industry designing bits for rusty old oil rigs in the North Sea but jacked it in about 2 years ago to train to become a pilot.

Anyone know if OEM chrome wing mirrors from a facelift S3 will fit straight onto a pre-facelift S3? If there are any modifications to be done, are they straight forward enough? Many Thanks, G.
