    Can you connect an android phone to the AMI??

    You need to buy a Bluetooth interface - this will allow you to stream music from your phone using A2DP via the AMI

    Sad Farewell

    Yes, but by buying my car privately you still have the protection of the manufacturer's 3-year warranty, you have the advantage of not having to deal with a grasping dealer who will fleece you, and I've already taken a large part of the initial depreciation hit ! :asskicking...

    Sad Farewell

    mmmmmmm......Tata Nano...........:hubbahubba: Seriously, the reason I'm selling is that I need a cheaper car for a few months due to a business venture. I'm still not sure that I've got the price right...... goes without saying that I'm happy to negotiate with anyone on the forum who wants...

    Sad Farewell

    I have sadly had to put my S3 up for sale :sorry: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/340498.htm I'm not sure whether I have pitched the price right though. Any constructive advice on this would be welcome, as I would like to find it a new home as soon as possible..... I can't bear long...

    Apology in advance - treason warning!

    RNS-E = good value as a retrofit for ~£500 off eBay. I can cope with its relatively few foibles at this price. However, it's a complete rip-off at £2000+ as a factory fit.

    New Audi models/facelifts

    I would view that document with great suspicion for a number of reasons, not least the fact that the typeface used in the page heading is not exactly OEM Audi......:think:

    For anyone who used to own an old style s3 and who owns a new style one now..

    Interesting comments about ride quality. It does seem that this varies from one car to another; quality issues with the OEM dampers perhaps? Even in Autocar's road test of the new S3, different testers said different things about the ride. I find my car's ride quality to be (as Autocar put it)...

    ByeBye S3, Hello TTS?

    ...plus you've got the option of an S-Tronic 'box as well! Makes it even more tempting for me.:)

    S3 side badges

    Don't think this is going to happen, is it Jamie? :sadlike:

    S3 side badges

    Is it just me, or does anyone else get the feeling that John might be quite keen to get his hands on some of these badges...... :) (OK, I'll admit it, I am too) Bet Jamie wishes he'd never started all this :scared2:

    Auto lights

    Just to really confuse you, the headlights on my S3 come on when it's raining without switching on the red illumination ....:nyah:

    S3 side badges

    Very much so. Just let me know how much and when, then you will be well on your way to earning my nomination for ASN Member of the Year :respekt:

    Recaro Approved Dealer

    I contacted Recaro UK to ask them if they could supply or recommend a suitable lumbar pad that could be fitted into my new S3 bucket seats to provide additional lumbar support. They put me in touch with the following, who are Recaro approved dealers: http://www.auto-trim.co.uk/motorsport.htm...

    S3 side badges

    Bump! Any progress on the chrome side badges yet, Jamie? Pretty-please? S.

    S3 side badges

    I'll second that. Chrome would be the ideal colour to make it look totally OEM. How about it, JamS3?:icon_thumright:

    S3 side badges

    That looks really good, the grey blends in very subtly. For me, the location is spot on - almost looks OEM. I can't believe you don't think they look right! Any chance you could let me have a set so I can try them out on my car?

    S3 side badges

    You're obviously earning far too much money :respekt:

    S3 side badges

    Yes, but nobody is going to mistake an S3 for an S-Line, with or without badges (ahem...). I still think you could be onto a winner with the appropriate sized badge on the rear quarter, and I'm sure I'm not alone in thinking this. I'd be willing to act as the "guinea pig". So go on, give it a...

    Audi TT vs Audi S3...which is a better buy?

    Wait for the TT-S early next year - S3 wrapped in TT clothes, best of both worlds?
