    Remap question

    Is a remap the same as buying a chip from ebay? If so, what should I look out for? Or do I have to take it to an Audi service centre where they have the software to hook up to my car and remap the ECU? In that case, what exactly do they do? I dont necesserally need more power, I would just...

    fuel stats for a full tank of 97RON fuel in remapped 1.8T Sport...

    thanks Darth but I had a look and I surely dont have any other buttons on the wiper stalk except the intermittent controls on top of the stalk. Could it be my car didn;t have that option turned on when purchased? But then why do I have the display there, just doesn't work. Maybe a fuse...

    a3 1.6

    can I ask how you got all that information in your display? Mine doesn't show anything at all in the middle, only the trip meter and total milage on the right hand side display. I have asked this on another post in this forum, no luck finding the answer yet. By the way, I am getting...

    Goodbye A3, Hello Datsun!

    some quick questions

    thanks, I looked for this but I dont seem to have a switch in the wiper stalk. Could it be my model doesn't have any display there? Or is the switch somewhere else? Remember it's a '98 A3 1.8 Turbo. I would love to see fuel usage, turbo boost, etc.

    Hi all, just got my '98 A3 1.8T 8L Audi, actually a downgrade from a V8 Holden Calais that was chewing up too much fuel everyday (I do 100kms / 65 miles per day driving). I also needed desperatelly to get back into a manual that actually likes going around corners. I chose the A3 based on my...

    Just purchased '98 A3 and need advise on stereo direction *newbie*
