Evening all - probably a strange question this but I have a A3 TDI 130 Sport - 3 door with T-Sport 16" alloys. Im needing to get something with 5 doors and a slightly softer suspension. I really fancy the same car but maybe SE instead of Sport but im concerned the suspension maybe like a...

Try a search for "faulty fuel gauge" and you will get various answers there. I think it can be a few things - mine doesnt go below the 1/4 mark but unfortunatly the fuel does:keule: I think someone that has one of the diagnostic machines that can read fault codes etc is the cheapest and...

Not many people would really consider and a3/s3 for a track car - the Chassis is hardly the worlds greatest. Of the people that I know who run cars on track regularly one has a MK2 16v Golf with leda suspension, turbo etc - one a RX7 - one a Westfield - the other a Impreza Sti Type RA. The S3/A3...

Mine appears to have corrosion on the bootlid - right where the bottom of the rear screen meets the metal - there is a rubber seal and there looks like corrosion against there. Frankly for a car thats not even 6 years old thats not really good enough - if it was a Ford id be pyshed off but an...

What a story! I agree on the legal advice - the lad that sold you the car could be telling porkies. While some theives are smart and some are not and the fact he didnt put his name on the V5....well I will leave that to your imagination! What a sickner - I hope you get it all sorted and get...

I remember a few lads tried various mods with their Clio Williams and found both drilled air boxes and induction kits lost them power due to the heat in the engine bay. The hose to the front bumper was the only one that had a very small power gain. But this was on a Clio and not an A3...

I had Toyo TS1s and Eagle GSD3s on my Clio Williams and found the Goodyears quieter and had more grip. The Toyos (very noisy) lasted longer and were great in the wet about the same as the Goodyears but not as good in the dry. Ive never had TR1s yet but had Eagles again on my Golf GT Tdi -...

I agree completely with this - when im looking for a car a full respray puts me off immediately. You want original - also maybe its down the to standard of resprays ive seen and ive just been unlucky but they have never been anywhere near as good as factory. Ive seen a few very well detailed...

Unless your cars worth under £10 and you really dont care about it steer clear.

Cheers all. They all look fine on 18s I thought maybe the 4x4 effect on standard suspension, before I got the car I had decided on old RS4s but now I have the A3 im not so sure - my budget is under £500 but I can pick what ever I fancy up normally quite cheaply through ebay etc. My mate...

I've been through the search option and there is hundreds of Alloy wheel posts so I shouldnt really need another! I have a A3 Tdi 130 Sport - im keeping the standard suspension on it as ive had enough messing about with suspension set ups. I fancy 18" RS4 reps but I think they may be too...

Try a few searches - I think the sender in the tank is the main suspect in most of the dodgy gauge readings. I did a search the other night as ive just bought a 01 Tdi 130 A3 and the fuel gauge stops at the 1/4 mark then the fuel light came on. Thankfully after a few runs I thought the gauge...

My last car was my first family car or first since starting a family! A MK4 Golf GT TDi 110 with Bilstein shocks and Eibach Springs to replace the shocking standard suspension. Just been replaced with a A3 TDI 130 Sport which is a lot softer but im getting older so some bigger alloys but...

The S3 looks excellent in white - ive had a few sporty white cars and aslong as they are bright white they look superb. Once they start going off and turning yellow/grey they dont look so hot. I remember buying a Fiesta RST years ago - only 16k on the clock and one woman owner and it was in...

Cracking thread:laugh: I dont agree with Speed cameras as they do not catch bad drivers just drivers going faster than the speed limit. As I live up North in the Highlands I see so many bad overtaking manouvers its unbelievable - there is no cameras designed to catch these and I would wager...
