    After my car had been remapped on Tuesday, Niki from R-Tech mentioned some error codes he'd seen. First I knew about it, because at that time no lights on the dash had reared their head. He had cleared them and we did the post remap drive test and all seemed well. About 4 miles en route home...

    Triple QX 5w 40 engine oil

    Ok folks, I've read a few of the what oil threads. And seen the sticky (which seems to be a bit WIP?) But can I bring a variation on a theme and seek not on which oil to use in terms of specification, but in terms of brand. So In respect of 5w 40 oil, Euro Car Parts have 5 litres for £12.50...

    Sound insulation

    I'm popping my A3 2.0TFSI in for some audio work (new speakers) and as part of the install they are putting in some door insulation. So it got me thinking about elsewhere. I don't want to do the whole car but less road noise in the car would be good. The boot for instance appears to have...

    Removal of Sun Visor

    Hi folks, wonder if someone can help and point to an easy guide showing the removal of the sun visor. Apologies if I've missed it; I did a search. I'm actually not with the car this week so it is difficult to assist my good lady from afar, without such a guide. I could only find an old A4...

    Build date to delivery..

    Currently waiting for the new arrival - ordered two weeks ago and got a build date of wk51 which isn't too bad at all. Its a A3 2.0TFSI Sline. Given we don't have the joy of picking up a car direct from the factory, I was just wondering what the timescales are, and what actually happens. My...

    Further CO2 improvements to A3 2.0TFSI

    Just perusing the October 2008 A3 catalogue and saw that the 2.0TFSI manual now has emissions of 164 and the s-tronic 166 – was well over 180 a year or so ago and 171 for the manual in the September catalogue – so it shifts 2 bands for company car tax purposes & becomes even more tempting...
