    Audi S3 2017 ESP light flashing when accelerating hard below 50

    You can confirm whether or not the haldex is working by putting the car up on the ramp, wheels off the ground and suspension fully extended and drive it - all 4 wheels should rotate - this is something i need to do soon as its doing my head in thinking the haldex has shiiit the bed

    Rear wiper delete, can it be re-added?

    Won't need coding - literally just plug it back in and connect the water tube - the stalk off the steering wheel activates the pump and motor which sucks water from the main tank at the front Or just enjoy the better look without it :P

    Rear wiper delete, can it be re-added?

    Can be reversed but the bung will be sealed in so just be careful removing - can use some heat and press from the outside

    Brake Cooling

    Any S3/RS3 owners have a better or improved solution for brake cooling other than the RS3 brake ducts? I have them installed on my S3 but wanting more cooling - there is the option of having the RS3 dust covers installed but half of me is considering removing the covers all together - what do...

    Caliper colour change - ideas needed

    Red was a factory optional extra so personally, I would keep them From my experience with painting callipers, its best to have them stripped from the car and done properly as it will last Here is my BBK from Racingline I got in black and changed to red to match my OEM rears

    2014 Glacier White Revo S3

    Following on from the track day, cooking my brakes and the fact that they need new discs and pads (last done in 2018 believe it or not) I have been looking at different brakes non stop since really. I kept looking at BBK's but in my head could not justify £2-3k on brakes. It does make sense...

    2014 Glacier White Revo S3

    In May 2023, I had another bad experience with dirty fuel, this time from Comber Solo which is documented on my local site. Been pretty good since I had the fuel filter replaced but hasn't been running 100% really but since a full service and fuel filter change, it behaved pretty well. Drag...

    Q5 8R 2011 Q5 - Water in boot around battery

    Did a quick search and no hits but seems common enough on other forums for the 8R Q5 (amongst other VAG cars) but most of the common faults are due to having a sunroof which mine doesn't Long story short, found water under the battery in the boot of our 2011 Q5 (no pan roof) Sucked it all...

    Front bumpers for 3 doors and 5

    The front's will fit - just make sure you get one that suits your car so if its PFL/FL or saloon. Not 100% sure on the rear though but I imagine so???

    BBK or What disc/pad combo stock calipers

    Pretty sure RS3 8V brakes will not fit my car without spacers which I cannot use due to the offset of my OEM wheels and lowering however, I have been told 8P RS3 "should" fit as they are 2mm narrower They are also on the current Cupra's as far as I know and possibly the same as the Aston Martin...
