    Hatch open switch replacement

    Hi, the two switches to open the boot/hatch aren't working on the car. I've got a new one but can't see how to get at them. I'm assuming that I need to remove the inner lining but can't spot any screws? Any help appreciated. Thanks Mike

    battery drain on tt

    Thanks, possibly daft question but is there a fuse I can pull to take out the unit, if so which is it? I guess this would be the easiest way. Cheers

    Thanks for the info, I'll give that a try. Is it repairable if it is that or am I faced with a new unit? Cheers

    battery drain on tt

    OK thanks, I have a SatNav head unit, a Navigation Plus and the car has the Bose system as well. Still, only 20mA drain doesn't sound like enough to take the battery down over three days. The Auto Electrician checked it over several hours too, after the car went to sleep. It never changed...

    battery drain on tt

    Hi, I've got an '03 S3 and the same happens. If I park it on a Friday and don't use until a Monday, it's usually flat and I need to jump lead it. I had an auto electrician check it over and he said the same as above, 20mA drain when all switched off. This shouldn't be enough to drain a...

    S3 Detachable Tow Bar

    I just had one of these fitted this morning, well happy with it. When the bar's removed and the electric socket swung up it's barely noticable. I also ordered the Audi A3/S3 specific wiring kit for it too so there was not need to tap into the original wires etc. I've had it doen for a Thule...

    Audi Warranty

    Hi, just got a quote to extend the warranty on my '03 S3 (48k miles) it came in at almost £900. Is it worth it? Can I expect big problems from now on? Also, I need a headlight adjustment control, I think it's broken because it just doesn't adjust the focus (and it's pointing down...

    More Warranty work

    The car's gone in again today. I've had it about two months (it's an '03 S3) and the week after I got it the battery died. Today's visit back to Mr Audi is because the Traction Control and ABS lights are on permanently, the radio stopped working (may not be warranty) and when I close the...

    MOUNTAIN BIKE ROOF RACK

    I'd been putting the bikes on top of the Golf using Thule racks for a couple of years and I did end up with some slight damage to the roof. Sometimes carelessness putting them on and taking them off and the mud and dirt that dropped off wasn't good. I decided when I got the S3 that it was time...

    Digital Camera... recommendations?

    I bought a ZX-1000 as a Christmas present to myself and am well pleased with it. I use the Nikon D70 for proper pics but for a small, good quality compact I'm very pleased with the Casio. It has the aded bonus of being able to get an underwater housing for when I next go diving. I suppose...

    Digital Camera... recommendations?

    Olly_K, have you done the D70 to D70S upgrade? You can download the firmware and upgrade the camera, I think the bought D70S has a slightly larger screen but the upgrade gives the extra focus points and more menu options etc. I'll post details if you need ... and I can find them :think:

    Dr Dave...

    Dr Dave had slept with one of his patients & felt really guilty. no matter how much he tried, his sense of betrayal was overwhelming. But every once in a while he'd hear an internal reassuring voice say 'Dave don't worry about it. You aren't the first doctor to sleep with one of his patients...

    A couple of newbie questions

    Hi, I picked up my car ('03 S3) last week and love it. I have a couple of questions that are probably easily answered First, I listen to Five Live (MW) a lot on the radio (until I get the iPod kit fitted) and I find that whenever the signal's a bit weak, or it could be when I go under...

    Hi there

    Hi all, just collected an '03 S3 yesterday in Nogaro Blue. I've wanted an S3 for years and finally took the plunge. I'm really happy with it, as I knew I would be. Two things so far, in order to aviod the motorway queues we saw on the way down, I set the Navigation Plus to avoid motorways...
