    Air condition problem?? 2007 Sline TDI

    My econ light didn't go off when the car had 6 years. I took to a specialist in AC and it was refilled, it had low gas. But the econ didn't go off. Then i took it to audi and they changed some AC sensor and it has been fine since then, two years have passed. My advice is to do the same, refill...

    S3 Coil Pack issue?

    I have this problem too. In my case it's not the clutch for sure. The car is stock S3 8P. It happens in high gears, when going full throttle from 2-4k rpm. Sometimes it dips 200-300rpm and then goes straigth to the red line normally, or the revs go up 200-300rpm then come down again 200-300rpm...

    Engine Noise and Clutch (S3)

    Hope nobody lost their sleep last night because of this. Yes, after starting the car, if I press the clutch in neutral, there is no click whatsoever but, that slight rattle disappear. That click in low gear, and noise between gear changes is normal, the haldex is engaging. Like you said, if the...

    Engine Noise and Clutch (S3)

    I always keep my ears open for new noises, and when starting the car in the garage and pressing the clutch for 1st gear noticed it a few weeks ago. Haldex has lot's of moving parts, it has that click when you acellerate and decellerate and when you change some gears and drop the clutch make some...

    Do the Adaptive Lights do this??

    Since we're talking about the xenon lights, I have had a lot of complaints from the other drivers, because the lights are too high. It's strange because the calibration is automatic and it should be allright. Can't we manually lower the lights a bit? I only notice the lights adjusting in the...

    RNS-E / GSM and Nokia N series phones

    I didn't delete the pairing like he asked, I told him to start importing immediately. Maybe that's it... Should give it a try, nothing to loose. You're right though, a load of money and just a few phones are compatible with this crap.

    RNS-E / GSM and Nokia N series phones

    Installed the Nokia 810 contacts download manager in my Nokia 6680 and now I can scroll trough the contacts in the DIS. Executed the program in the phone, he asked if I wanted to turn the BT on, said yes, connected to the car and started downloading the contacts. Should make this thread...

    S-Line 170 TDI or Sport 170 Quattro

    Had a few wild rides in a TDI140 DSG and it's great! Still good traction, nevertheless it can't put ALL the power down of course. I had to make the same choice myself early this year between the S3 and the TDI 170. If you're going to find lots of snow, and if you plan to drive really hard all...

    New Audi Diesel engines

    Same old discussion... Nobody buys a TFSI to make good mpg, although in my opinion, the S3 for instance, can do good mpg if you want to, considering the power output. That is good enough for me, a car that can achieve reasonable mpg when driven more smoothly. You can always say it's not good...

    S3 - Strange brake noise

    Yap, in reverse it happends all the time, when parking. But last friday, in traffic, it was making a some noise when I pressed the brake pedal less smoothly. That's not going to be admissable in a 50000 euro car...

    In terms of handling - S3 or GTI?

    Powerslides aren't for this car. Nevertheless it can be provoked to get the tail to slide a little. The haldex system is quite twitchy in the limit, maybe in part because it's not fully mechanical like the torsen, making it even more difficult and dangerous to powerslide. My brother S3 mk1...

    My Silver S3 With Spacer Pics

    LOL! Poor Pedro, if we would make a list of the number of days between the order and the delivery, surely he would be in the top places... I believe that it is worth the waiting:) Força pedro!

    My Silver S3 With Spacer Pics

    Looks sweet indeed! I don't understand why audi let the wheels stay in that position, the S3 mk1 seems to have the wheel arches better filled, thought they had learned the lesson. Silver is a good color, mine is just like yours, only difference is the opcional rims similar to RS4. Still waiting...

    S3 Races?

    My S3 still hasn't been delivered, so no "races" yet. Nevertheless, my brother still has a lot of drivers trying to test his S3 mk1. Last time, he was pretty sad, a bmw 535d gave him a lesson. It was in a straight, and that S3 had a few months of low revs, he had surgery... Totally different...

    Best Time To Order S3?

    price will go up by that... Local roads aren't the best that's true, but the rest is great:) Portuguese drivers are quite agressive... Especially in the northern part of the country, they won't beat you up, but aren't fond to be taken by megane estates;)
