A little update on the car front, The rear beam bushes were really worn, I bought a new pair and read some reviews and guides on how to change them, looked like a right pain to do without ramps and the right tools, Managed to convince a mechanic to do them for me got £35 a side, Has made a...

some strange problems you have going on there, not sure on a cure but it is definatly worth getting your car fault code checked to see what is going on, vag-com or vcds should do the trick. it may give you an insite into what is going on

iv been on many test flights in the a3 now, we are now clearing speed bumps however i still avoid straddling them where possible, what is the lowest part of the underside, is it the sump??? still have to get the timing belt changed, have the kit in the boot inc water pump. just waiting for a...

mine was just off a stage 2, all that was holding it back was a free flowing exhaust and slightly larger fmic pipes. you could upgrade to a K03s turbo, i think the AGU had a k03, not sure what gains you can get between the two though

tiny update, rear beam bushes are well on their way out, knocking and banging away over evey little bump and lump in the road, thats on my immediate to do list once i have figured out how to make a tool to remove and replace the bushes. i dont really fancy paying £60 for the tool when i have...
