    For Sale Audi RS3, 2016, Sepang Blue, SS Seats, B&O, Dynamic Pack

    Thanks both, I did look at them actually but they want cars under 4 years I think and mine is about 3 weeks over. I'll give them a call tomorrow and see if there's any flexibility, the car is in very, very good condition so guess they might still consider it.

    Can you run different width (225 & 235) tyres on an A3 Quattro?

    Excellent, cheers for your help. A pair of 235/35s it is then!

    Can you run different width (225 & 235) tyres on an A3 Quattro?

    OK, thanks I appreciate your reply. So given the Haldex system is not like a full 4x4, would you say this is an acceptable difference or is it likely to cause problems? Ultimately I would like to change all tyres to 235/35/19s but at the moment two of the tyres have a good 5mm on so, so my...

    Going to view an S3 in the morning!

    I wouldn't personally be too worried about the seat, some decent leather restorer and polish will bring that up nicely. Regarding the cut in the arm rests, I'd probably use that a bargaining tool to get the price down - provided everything else on the car was ok. If you look on eBay the door...

    Can you run different width (225 & 235) tyres on an A3 Quattro?

    I'm running 19" 8.5J Alloys with 225/35 tyres all round on my A3 2.0T Quattro so there's a bit of stretch. However, I got a bad puncture the other day and need to replace two of the tyres. I wanted to take the opportunity of fitting a pair of 235/35s as I'm positive they'll fit (and will offer...

    If youre looking for an un-marked S3 then stay clear of this one, and Coulsdon Audi..

    I'd just like to say that I have always had really good service from Camberley Audi, both the service department and even the parts guys. The parts guys don't necessarrily have a great deal of knowledge when it comes to buying parts that were not originally specified on my car but they are...

    Help needed: Changed spark plugs now car won't start

    Got the car fixed this morning and somewhat embarrassingly it turned out to be a completly flat battery. No idea how it lost all its charge in the space of an hour or so but the guy that looked at thinks it probably needs replacing anyway - looks like the original battery so probably is due a...

    Help needed: Changed spark plugs now car won't start

    It looks almost impossible to mess up as the leads connecting to the coil pack are all fixed in place. However, I replaced one plug at a time to make sure I didn't mess anything up. That's why I really can't understand what has gone wrong. For the car not to fire up at all suggests i've done...

    Help needed: Changed spark plugs now car won't start

    Thanks for the quick response Guys... Glad you also think this is strange - I've changed a lot of spark plugs before and never had this! To answer Warren's questions first of all - questions 1-5, all yes. Q6, I don't know where my handbook is so can't easily check the fuses. And finally no, I...

    Help needed: Changed spark plugs now car won't start

    Guys I need some help please... I changed the spark plugs this morning, replacing them with identical OEM ones from TPS in Guildford. I connected everything back up and now the car will not start. There is a loud rapid fire clicking noise coming from the coil packs. I could only guess that...

    Flat Spots in Map (intermittent)

    Just seen your note Paddy - mine also runs fun without my map (Bluefin) but it has also run absolutely fine with my remap for 2.5 years. I'll give the iridium plugs a go and hope that resolves mine. Hope you fix yours ok.

    Flat Spots in Map (intermittent)

    Hey Cheese - Sorry to hear about your problems but glad you seem to be resolving them. I have this misfire/stuttering issue on my 2005 2.0T. The car was in Audi today to have the coil packs replaced under a recall and I really hoped that would fix the issue. After the coilpacks were fitted...
