    Dilema on fitting driving lights...

    Yes it's been a while since I posted, but I see I still have a healthy number of posts compared to most.... Anyway the dilemma is that I have got some Xenon/HID ancillary lights that I received free from one of my very generous suppliers along with the rest of the lighting accessories he sends...

    Things to do and not to do with your A3.....

    Well folks, it's been a while since I've started my own post, so what better way than with a whole host of issues I've had/got going on. A couple of weeks back I was replacing my top and bottom exhaust gaskets on the turbo, when I decided it would be a good idea to shear one of the exhaust...

    The facts about the K03 Turbo!

    As some will be aware following on from a discussion on one of the boards I decided to drop Borgwarner an e-mail asking them some simple questions regarding the K03 turbocharger and what some have called the K03S. The Question [ QUOTE ] I type this e-mail to you on behalf of many Audi...

    PDA version of VAG-Com....VAG-Check

    As the subject says... VAG-Check Vag-Com for the PDA, not developed by Vag-com, but is quite nice to use with limited functions.

    New wheels/tyres really make a difference.

    Exactly as expected but still chuffed at how much better my A3T now feels with some STD 17" S3 wheels on it. Corners that I used to take at 45-50 mph tyres squealing can now be taken 50-65 mph with no squeal, so I am well chuffed. A BIG thanks to Jaybee for doing me a great deal! Oh they...

    ******, another speeding ticket

    It would seem that I am trying to get a speeding ticket once a month at the moment....I am not chuffed with myself, and still don't think this latest one is legit, as I know where the cameras are on this road and always slow for them as they're at traffic lights anyway. So another 92 Euros down...

    Happy Birthday to me....

    Go on then say happy birthday to me you miserable g*ts! OK, so the posts a little late in the day, but what the hell 23 years old today, yes I am young and extremely proud of it, especially when I look what I've done with my life up to now, making me think that the next years should be a...

    What's it all about, it means nought to me, and why's me only half way along it?

    420bhp S3 from my dealer.

    The dealer is my local one and I saw the car but didn't realise it was quite that wild, until one of the guys across here mentioned it. Will find out whats been done to it and try and get a test drive in it. And if you don't believe me check out http://www.jedi.nl then click the second...

    New EBC brakes.

    Just thought I'd post a couple of pics of my new EBC brakes, greenstuff pads and Turbo discs all round (meaning front and back. I had the rears done the other day, so am still bedding them in, but the fronts were done about 1500 Km's ago, and I can safely say they are a good improvement...

    Chip tuning

    Well the time has come to get the old tin can chipped...but who to do it with...... Living in the Netherlands the choice is not so great as to which big name tuner you go with so choice is limited, but wouldn't mind some opinions. So to chip a '98 A3 1.8T NDBW Oettinger - €1203 - an hour and...

    €190 speeding ticket..............................

    So I'm just minding my own, when I see this dumbass Dutch policeman step out into the road with a glowworm in his hand and pull me over........Anyway they logged me doing 33 Km's over the 50Km/h speed limit, and because it's over 30 above it has to go to the district attorney, who will probably...

    Funny passenger side wing mirror.

    I have a German car in Holland and it has a funny small passenger wing mirror.........why? any ideas? I asked this question on another forum, and the only reply was that it was no longer present on cars after 2000, so I accepted that, until I started driving a 2002 VW Passat courtesy car which...

    TRIP, DIS, On board computer.

    Anyone know if this is as simple as just taking a cluster out of a scrap A3 and fitting it? I have climate control so don't think I'd need some of the sensors, for outside temp etc. Is the wiring already there for it? the ECU's don't change, which I guess is where the display gets it's info...

    Great Forum

    Well that's basically it, unfortunately I wasn't part of the old forum, but this one looks like it's going to be just as good. This one is far far superior to some of the others I have seen, especially compared to the stagnant over enthusiastic yanks on Audiw***d. Not sure of all that are...
