During some work on my 2002 S3 AMK, the guy at the work shop discovered play in the turbo, according to him severe play. They advised me to get a "new" refurbished turbo and they come up with a price for the turbo of £1300 + labour. So I'm thinking, is there any other way to come about this...

Had my car on service last week, standard issue + haldex oil and brake fluid. Yesterday the engine light lit up (yellow) and today the ESP light is on permanently. Any clues to what's going on?

Currently silver, but started to fancy trying out a white wrap job. Nice or not:

My car has been running fine up until recently, when I have started to feel a vibration in the acceleration when giving it full throttle at about 3000 rpm and upwards. Mate of mine first had a theory that I needed new plugs, but I have swapped them without any result. have also been thinking it...

I noticed that my rear wheels are further out after fitting Forge Tie Arms in the upper position, and having wheel alignment. The wheels sat perfectly with 20mm spacer before, now it's almost outside the arch. Also it was not possible to get rid of the toe in on the rear, the adjustment of the...

Swapped my front springs recently and had a pack of new top bushes and bearings from previous owner. When about to install the new ones I realized that the new ones were about 15 mm taller than the old. I considered if it could be the old ones being compressed, but it didn't look like it, and...

Ok, so I've finally sorted out the basics of my 2002 AMK S3, see signature below, and some pics here: http://www.audi-sport.net/vb/a3-s3-forum-8l-chassis/145528-new-wheels-rate-them-if-you-like-2.html#post1552988 I will have some fun just driving it for now, not spending much until late...

Started by posting a question some weeks back about what actual lowering you get when buying lowering springs for the S3, because I didn't really want to go much lower than original but needed new springs. Original thread here...

Have had random knocking from my left rear wheel for a couple of days, and it started to get more frequent today, so I checked it and the spring is broken. So question is: can I drive the car for a few days while I'm getting new springs? Spring is broken at the very bottom, but obviously the...

I would like to improve the handling of my car, but I don't really want to lower it due to road conditions and snowy winters at my parts. So, what products should I go for? I've been looking at Koni FSD and Bilstein B6, though I've been somewhat put off the Bilsteins as there has been some...

I got rid of my RS4 II replicas with Nankangs yesterday, so now I'm joining the masses in the search for the ultimate wheels. So far I've been considering OZ Ultraleggera and some from Tenzo, but at the mo these 5-spoke TSW Spas are my favourite. Tell me what you think:

Anyone got an idea how to remove eye lids like these? Apparently they are mounted with glue or even some sort of Sikaflex. Will I break the headlights trying to remove them? Any experience appreciated.

To make a long story short: got a new OEM DV installed by a local audi specialist, as he was of the opinion that the aftermarket fitted when I bought the car 2 months back was leaking and that the OEM would work better anyway. This week I managed to track down the guy who mapped my car last...

I have a DV on my 2002 S3, and I'm wondering what make it is as I would like to get some parts for it. Anyone got an idea? Can it be an older Forge unit? DV S3 | Flickr - Photo Sharing!
