    A3 Auto 'box

    A friend of mine is looking to swap a broken auto box from an A3 1.8T Sport over to a manual. Physically I'm confident that it's achievable, but he's questioning if the autobox "talks" to the engine ECU and whether it's removal will cause the engine to go into limp mode. Can anyone shed some...

    Convienience Indicators

    Found 46. It's the "Central Convienience". So really, the only question I need answering is, what do I need to change the value in channel 12 to? Cheers

    Convienience Indicators

    You know what I mean - When you flick the indicator stalk and they flash three times then turn off. How do I turn these on for a 2001 S3? I have done a bit of research on here and have found this: "Its under 46 adaptation channel 12." What/where is 46? Is it the same for my car? And what I...

    Setting MPH2

    Once I'd cracked the whole "not having the ignition on" bit, then that worked a treat! Cheers

    Setting MPH2

    Cheers Ash! Where is the test button for the auto-check feature though? Aky - I'd love to "just press the button" LOL!! But, cos I'm not running ABS in my car, it just constantly flashes a big exclamation mark at me and doesn't seem to acknowledge anything I do with the DIS. Next job on the...

    Setting MPH2

    How do guys. I've checked this forum using the search and even googled it, but I can't find out how to set, or more accurately, turn off the MPH2 warning. Mines currently set for about 65mph, which means driving cross country I am contantly bombarded with that annoying beep. I know it...

    How do you remove the facia around the HU and heaters?

    You'll need to remove the stereo and the ashtray. There will be torx head srews behind these. There are also two clip at the top, above the buttons, but the facia pulls out from them easily enough. Might have to go and get myself one of them for £23. Mines seen better days too. Good luck.

    A3 has Been Pimped !!

    You've gotta admit - It has been pretty well done. Not my taste, but it could have been WAY more OTT. Dash is clever, but again, not my thing.

    Spark Plugs

    Where do you guys with S3s buy your spark plugs from? I'm just about to service my MkII Golf/S3 and I've got everything else I need but Sparky Ps. Been to G&S and Halfords (sic) - they both list em but don't stock them. Don't really wanna go to a dealership cos I'll get stung big time. Any...

    Mileage Correction Software????

    I was told by my audi dealer that you can't adjust the odometer reading after it's passed 100 miles. The clocks lock and there is nothing you can do - Even Audi can't change it! They had my Golf online to Germany to recode the immo and they couldn't do that! So swapping to second hand clocks...

    S3 - Dodgy part upgrades

    Ahhh, right. I'll bear that in mind. Yeah, has a few funky functions on the Apexi thing. The boost limit thing would be handy. I'll be running it on Emerald management which has traction, so that will help too.

    S3 - Dodgy part upgrades

    I know the early engines in the S3s suffered with certain components failing/not being up to the job. AFAIK they are: - Coil packs - MAF sensors - Recirculation valves - N75 valves Are there any others? And does anyone know the latest part numbers and suffixes? And where is the best place...
