    Fuel pressure problem with S3, please help!!

    Glad you fixed it. These top sensors couldn't be sourced on their own for ages. Lately i've seen them on amazon. Since it's easily broken i'm surprised that only now replacement part is made and sold.

    Audi a3 Tfsi 8P tuning advise

    Cdl engine with k04 can't hit 400bhp. You'll need either turbo anti surge core (still rarely hits 400). Or you need a full hybrid turbo and other parts . Still, rods of either engine can't stand the torque hybrid turbos make in the long run.

    2012 S3 Manual - Boost is sometimes violent, other times pretty 'meh', and nearly stalling on hills today... Am I driving it 'wrong'?

    Hello, nice spec car you got. It's a 10+ year old car so plastics and hoses wear up with time. Does it feel the same apart from the induction/spooling noise when accelerating in first? The reason i ask is because aftermarket intake does sound different depending on ambient temperature (at least...

    Will s3 8p cdl auto engine fit manual?

    If you had shifting issues above 5k rpm, keep the bearing and get the input shaft mod (extension) done. When i did input shaft mod on manual gearbox i had to add pilot bearing from dsg to support the shaft on the other end.

    Oil consumption increase

    This. Compression test might give ok compression value but oil on sparkplugs would point to cylinder/piston/rod issue. In my case it was burned piston/broken rings on a cdl engine with 64k miles mostly done on stage 2+. I hope this is not the case with yours.
