whats the best to use any body try the powerflex ones and are the easy to fit ? ive fitted standard rear axel bushes on a golf and had to use the special tool would i need that to fit the poly ones? looking at these Audi S3 Quattro Mk1 (8L) 99-03 POWERFLEX REAR TRAILING ARM TO CHASSIS BUSHES |...

whers the best place to get them? cars wandering a bit at the rear and want to tighten it up.

since changing my stero im getting alternator noise through my speakers ive also change my alternator recently as well anything i shoulkd look for/do?

what sort of temp should i see at idle running temp?

after reading a fair bit on the net found that the 02 sensor pre cat lamba sensor can get lazy and responds slow to change causing lagging info to the ecu mine ran fine for the first 10 seconds after a start from warm then started bouncing from 720 760 rpm after unpluging sat perfect at 800 rpm...

unplug your pre cat lamba sensor see what happens then mine idle bounces around unpluged the lamba and smooth as anything just bought a new o2 gona fit tonight

opened it looked and shut itagain lol wont touch anything in there cleaned throttle body again revs still bouncing runs fine for first minute or so then starts its never straight away even when starting from hot took injectors out tonight checked o rings all good no leaks there. been radinga bit...

cool il have a look at that in the morning can any of the electronics on the throttle be changed behind the black plastic cover.

what rpm should idle normaly sit at on the s3 is it 900rpm have read somewhere else tonight to check injector o ring/seals. also how does the hockey puck part of the breather system work does that also have a valve in it?

forgot to mention ive cleaned throttle body and reset also cleaned maf but it acts the same as withe it pluged in

car is idleing between 740 780 rpm shown on vagcom can feel the car reving up and down. ive changed/checked all breather pipes under inlet manifold fitted new plugs fited new coilpack wireing loom changed thermostat new green water temp sensor ive got no fault codes anything else i can check...

ive got a copy of vagcom 311.2
