    S3 Engine Cover

    OK, confession time....I have managed to crack my engine cover whilst attempting to remove it to fit the panel filter :banghead: A few questions for you: 1. Is the black cover the same on all 2.0 TFSi engines? 2. Assuming that it is, is it possible to remove and swap over the silver/grey panel...

    RR Chart Comparison

    As promised on the Bluefin thread, here's a few RR graphs from the recent Prosport RR Day plotted on the same axes so that you can get a direct comparison. Hopefully phantom, Iggu and QucikNick won't mind me using their cars, but they seemed to be the most representative for a comparison of...

    Emission Warning Light

    Finally managed to fit my BMC panel filter today, and now have a new problem :crying:. I fitted the engine cover and all of the pipework back on afterwards, but forgot the MAF connector before going out for a drive. Now the emission light is on (despite having reconnected the MAF) :sadlike...

    S3 Wheels

    Not sure if it's OK to post a wanted request in this section directly :think:, but as it's S3 (8P) specific, hopefully it will be OK :eyebrows:. I'm looking for a pair of S3 (8P) wheels to buy from someone to go with the two that I already have. I may consider a full set, if someone doesn't...

    Air Filter Replacement

    Right, I've taken delivery of a BMC panel filter today and had a quick attempt at fitting it, but with no luck :sorry:. I understand that you need to remove the engine cover, but is there a particular knack required to do this? I've removed the intake trunking, the exit pipe and the electrical...

    Electric Window Queries

    A couple of questions about electric windows for you: Should the passenger side be one-touch up and down? Mine isn't, but am interested if others are the same. My drivers side had a funny turn yesterday and wouldn't stay up :huh:. It went up completely and then dropped back down by a couple of...

    FBMFSW Question

    I have the FBMFSW fitted on my new S3 without a phone pack and the 'Mode' button on the wheel doesn't seem to do anything :mad: . According to the manual it should allow me to switch between CD/Radio/Phone, so I assume that without the phone pack it should still work for CD/Radio. Can anyone...
