Well think it’s time to replace disc and pads all round.
Just been on a weekend run in the highlands with a few car guys and I think I need a new setup. They held up ok but started to fade and now it feels like a disc is warped.
Discs are factory 6 years old so not too bothered having to...
Notice a new error when I was scamming car after a battery fault.
I get gsm antenna 2 open circuit on module 5F. Code B153313.
Previous scan always had the antenna for telephone bracket error, that’s been there since new and was told these cars had the wireless charger instead of the signal...
Hi folks,
Could be me or my devices but what’s happened to the forum?
Had a period of huge ads covering up 70-80% of the screen but that settled or some
Ad blocker kicked in.
I now have a completely new look to the forum when I view on my iPhone and iPad. With even worse ads than before. It’s...
Hi guys
Think old age is catching up with me and recently done my knee and shoulder in so struggling to clean the car.
Any recommendations on brushes with extension or similar to help clean the lower and higher parts of the cars? Struggling to crouch or stretch too high at the moment and the...
Is it me or has car prices just gone a little mad recently.
car is at dealers getting serviced and noticed a used 35tdi a3 for sale. This is going for £35k which is more than what I paid for a brand new s3 black edition with tech pack 4-5 years ago.
either everyone has had massive pay rises...
Right. I’ve been looking at this and struggling to find a definitive answer.
I’ve driven a few golf r7/7.5 and when blasting down the back roads it always feels and drives/corners more sure footed than my s3. It feels less twitchy and just goes well.
basically these 2 cars are more or less the...
Hi folks
I’m looking for a cheap android type head unit that supports CarPlay for my new project car (Mini) so after any recommendations or brands to look for. I’m after a single din with either a pop out screen or a fixed floating type screen.

Hi folks
anyone used Halfords batteries on their car before? Any issues ?
Anyone actually knows who makes them?
I’m needing a battery quickly and Halfords has stock and with my trade card it works out quite cheap for an agm battery.
my usual is use tayna batteries but I won’t get one till...
As title says can you show me your refurbed wheels in all the different colours and patterns.
winter wheels need refurbed so thinking something other than plain silver.
Just a quick question
The lining on the bonnet is a bit floppy and lost all rigidity in the bottom left corner.
can this be fixed?
If not, anyone got the part number and price for new one?
cheers
Hi folks
I recently got a genuine a3 rubber boot mat for my s3 as I’m carrying a lot of dirty/muddy stuff from doing outdoors stuff with my son. It fits well but it covers up the hooking points for the luggage net.
is this an s3 issue with the shallower boot or is there a different version of...
Since we talk about cars mainly here so thought something different for you guys.
Looking for recommendations for a washing machine as mine broke last week. Luckily I have 2 in my house but other one is small so can’t take big loads like bedding and stuff.
want one that has good life...
Is there a guide to get the exhaust tips off?
It’s awkward enough without a ramp but I’ve tried pulling, tapping with mallet and they don’t want to budge.
dealer wants £75 to remove them :wink:
trying to get them off to powder coat them as the chrome has pretty much all pitted and looks really...
Hi folks
I’m looking for recommendations for places to buy parts specifically discs and pads for my s3.
I know the usual ecp and autodoc but needing somewhere that will have quick delivery and choice of parts/brands including performance or oe equivalent.
my go to is normally AUTODOC but a...
Just gauging some thoughts from you guys/gals out there.
a couple of things going through my head at the moment.
Costs.
With current petrol and diesel prices going £2+ per litre by the summer is it time for a switch?
It’s costing around 30p a mile , roughly 30mpg, in petrol and around £100 to...
Hi folks
So I’ve decided to keep my s3 and pay off the balloon payment.
however I’ve been offered by Audi finance to extend the finance since they have no cars to sell. As part of the extended finance deal they have offered me 2 free services with it.
my question is if I take out the extended...
Hi folks
Looking for some opinions.
Thinking of servicing my s3 myself and doing the dsg and haldex service as well as the normal oil and filters since I have access to a ramp at my mates. Might need discs and pads all round as well.
My question is, is it worth doing myself? Or paying someone...
Here’s one for you guys.
I have a very good surround sound set up that I’m happy with but wanting to move it to another room.
problem in the new room is it’s huge and hard wood floors and I don’t want to trek 20-30m of cables around the room along the skirting boards.
is there a wireless unit...
I’m starting to look for a replacement for my facelift s3 black edition sportback pre-gpf model. I seem to have ran out of ideas what is a good replacement.
I was at the dealership today and a basic s3 with a couple of options is coming in at £100 more per month. Which wasn’t too bad but feels...
