Hey all! Well the time has come to sell the S3 sadly. It's up in the classifieds on here at the moment (link in the classifieds sticky or my signature for those that might be interested). Then I'm thinking Pistonheads later in the week if there's not much interest from here. 2014's a shake...

Sorry, yet another clutch thread! But after some advice as my symptoms seem a little different from the norm... Basically during the winter months of cold and wet weather my clutch would occasionally slip when under load. I.E. Accelerating fairly hard down a motorway slipway, or sitting at...

Twas a cold, snowy:cold: Sunday morning last weekend, when I was awoken from my slumber (mildly hungover perhaps) by a ring at the door (7:30am!). To be greeted by a grinning, raring to go, Nigel - NHN. (For those new to the forum and not in the know he's the endless tea swilling :laugh:, no...

Can anyone recommend a good place in Kent or South East for 4 Wheel Alignment and tracking adjustments please? Getting worn outer edge on nearside front tyre and would like to get it all checked out. TIA

Heheh forgive the thread title, couldn't resist! Recently changed the plugs and coilpacks myself and noticed that at some point, on one of it's services, the thieving dealers have not screwed down the connection bar for the coil packs. Now I'm sure this isn't likely to move around a lot, but...

After some forum advice on fixing a split in my drivers door armrest pad (see pic) :( Not sure what's caused it to crack and split like that, must have sharp elbows! Wondering if it's best to try and get repaired somewhere, try a wrap or something or just get a replacement from Audi? Anyone...

Can anyone recommend a garage or someone in the South East who could change over this lead on my May 2008 S3 for me? To cut a long story short, my local Audi dealer damaged this lead a while back. They decided to cut the existing lead along the brake sensor section and repaired it using crimp...

Just been to my local dealer for replacement front pads and was charged £227.66 £115 for labour, £75.45 for pads and £3.30 for some plastilube + vat Now looking at the Audi website I see that if my car was 6 months older (over 36 months old), this job would have a fixed price of £129. So I...

Hey guys, following a post from a forum member from Spain (thanks Jann :icon_thumright:), I'm trying to gauge interest in either having the following item made up to buy, or sourcing from the guy who made them in Spain if easier (Jonny Sportback on audisport-iberica). Maybe create a Group Buy...

Hi Guys, Audi sent me a flyer this week saying I should get the Quattro transmission fluid changed for my S3. Car's now done 16,000 miles (not that they know how much mileage it's done). Should this be changed after a certain length of time as well. Car's about 15 months old now. It's due...

Hi guys, Got my passenger side S3 chrome mirror cover whacked over the weekend whilst parked over night. Has a fairly big chunk of chrome missing, back to the plastic, and a nice scrape along it too :mad: Got a quote of £145.85 for a new cover, pre-facelift, ouch! Wondered if anyone has one...

Started up my S3 this morning and right from pull away it felt slow and awkward, no jerking, still smooth but lacking in power and unresponsive when trying to accelerate. Once on a main road I tried to put my foot down and it just slowly crept up in speed rather than it's normal "zooming off"...

Hi Guys, just wondered if anyone knew about how sensitive the alarm should be on the S3? I can give mine a full wash without setting it off. Is that normal?

Hi guys, Quick question (hopefully) with my S3 I can hear the turbo whistling away when accelerating and hissing when I lift my foot off. Especially noticeable when the windows are down. Didn't think anything of it, but a mate of mine was in the car yesterday and questioned it. I assume...

Just seen this link on msn car news.... http://cars.uk.msn.com/News/car_news_article.aspx?cp-documentid=8573084 280bhp and front wheel drive!?!? Are they mad!?!?! Surely that kind of power to the front's going to cause the kind of torque steer that will snap a few wrists. Can't believe...

Just a quick question. Has anyone been able to sync their TomTom SatNav up with the Audi Bluetooth to play it's audio via the car speakers? My TomTom Go720 has an option to output audio via a "bluetooth hifi". Had a quick attempt last night with no success. Will give it a proper go tonight...

Hi guys, Hope no one's posted this already. http://cars.uk.msn.com/Reviews/article.aspx?cp-documentid=8357199 Seems they quite likes the new revised S3 :thumbsup: though they do state at the bottom that it's a 2.2litre when it's obviously a 2.0:no:

Hi guys, Well after what seems like forever, I finally get to pick up my S3 first thing tomorrow from my local dealer. Can't wait! Big thanks to you all on the forum! I've learnt loads more about the car from all the posts. Looking forward to being able to contribute more on the site from an...
