Do you actually have to physically take the plates off the previous car - I can't do this as its been salvaged? Can the Reg be transferred straight on to someone else's car? (form V317?) What sort of timescale would it take for the transfer to go through?

Hi My car has (very) recently been written off (long story) but i noticed the insurance company give you the option of removing a private registration before they scrap the car. The only problem here is the plate (S3 VPR) is the original registration that was on the car so there is no other...

The problem is any costs involved (insurance etc) may be harder to recover than if I go down the hire car route? The problem with the insurance company is with when they are defining the period of repair. Even though the garage have been given approval to do the work, they are saying the...

Elephant are terrible - You can't get a decision about anything out of them. I was hoping to use my insurance company (who have ok'd the work to be carried out) as I'd only have to pay my excess then they would pursue the council for the rest. I was also thinking they would supply me for a...

I can't believe it either but i realised as soon as i drove it afterwards that something was wrong. I've had it at 2 garages and they have both said the subframe needs replaced. I have photos (of the scene) - I'll post them here tomorrow - There was no workmen around at the time as it...

I need some advice on a incident that happened last week. I was driving to work last week when I approached some roadworks - It was marked as a ramp except they had made the ramp out of sand which had been washed away with rain overnight. Unfortunately this sand had been covering an exposed...

Just across from the Ship Inn. Don't think I've seen your car - I'm sure i would remember it.

Called star performance and was quoted £136 for the service - can do Saturdays as well so I'm going to go there.

I'm in Musselburgh - Will try and post some pics up.

If time wasn't an issue Star Performance would be my choice but its easier for me if its somewhere local as I need to be able to get to work. I might not go to the main dealer - £210 just for the service seems a lot. If i need Haldex or brake fluid they are going to charge me plenty. The...

I bought my S3 about a year ago and it now needs its first service. The car is a 2000 model and has done about 98K miles. Edinburgh Audi quoted me £330 for servicing + £150 Haldex + £102 Brake Fluid Western Audi Service - £210 Brake Fluid - Depends if required Haldex - Depends if...

Its getting power as I can eject the magazine - the connection of the changer to the loom seems ok (if I'm looking at the same connection). It sounds as its working as when you load the cd's you can hear them being checked though the cd player is not selected by the mode button and no error...

Hi I recently purchased a S3 with a bose concert stereo and 6 disc multi-changer. When I was buying it the guy said there was a problem with the cd player though he didnt know what. The problem seems to be that the cd changer is connected to the head unit but when you press the mode...

Thanks for the response. I tried VAGparts though couldn't find what i was after. I'll contact them to see if they can get an hold of the parts. I assume for the likes of the fog light lenses these are parts are the same accross the range? Maybe I could get one for a TT or A2 or something...

Hi I purchased a 2000 plate S3 last weekend. I'm really impressed by the quality of the car and the performance (Its currently unmodified), though the car had a couple of little 'problems' that i hope someone could help me with : The drivers side mirror glass is broken. The guy i bought it...
