    Facelift Eibach Pro problems.....

    Mate, I had the exact same issue, I tried both versions of the Eibach springs on the FL RS3 and both were exactly the same. The garage couldn't work out what the issue was either. In the end I caved in and got KW V3's!

    Engine Oil For 8V RS3

    Just wanted to check, I've been buying Castrol Edge Professional 5w 30, as that was what was recommended when I put my reg no into the Castrol website. What's the difference between that and 0w 30? And am I ok with using 5w 30 instead?

    2015 RS3 CLUNKY GEAR BOX/CHANGE

    I have a FL 2017 which has stage 1 APR map, I've also got a clunky change from 2nd to 1st and quite jerky in auto coming to a stop, I think it's worse with the remap on than it was as standard, currently at 14k miles. I just saw that Awesome GTI now offer a TVS TCU map with a few different...

    Saloon Apr Stage2

    The pops and bangs are spot on, not too over the top like some I've heard. Does it have the crackle map on or is it just louder because of the downpipe?

    Facelift Rear wheel arch 'fins'

    Has anyone managed to remove the black plastic fin things that stick out of the rear wheel arches? I'm running about 20mm lower and with 5mm spacer and find that I get a fair bit of rubbing when driving fast over bumpy country lanes and it's rather annoying. I'm sure that the tyres are rubbing...

    Coolant issue

    Right then folks, to say this escalated quickly is an understatement! To update you all, I've now got my car back from Audi after they had it for a full 9 weeks.... and they fitted a brand new engine!! When they first took a look at it they pressure tested it overnight, and could see that there...

    Fl vs prefl vs TTRS...

    How does a TTRS vs RS3 (FL) compare in the handling stakes? Is the steering any sharper/more direct in the TT? I drove an R8 last week and was amazed at how sharp the steering was, so just hoping the TTRS might be similar?

    Saloon APR stock turbo qtr mile record

    Surprised the quickest quarter mile for MRC stage 2 is 11.1 seconds, that's the exact time I got in my RS3 on Dragy with just an APR stage 1 and some VWR R360 wheels and Pilot Sport 4S tyres, no other mods.

    Coolant issue

    Bit of an update on my issue (I did post in someone else's thread but thought I'd stick with my own). I had the APR map taken off and all was fine for two weeks, drove the car hard on a few occasions and the coolant level didn't drop. But after another week, the issue started again so I booked...
