    Car gets extremely jerky when doing U-turns

    Well took to it Russell automotive centre on Saturday and they diagnosed yesterday that the problem is the Haldex Controller. Told me the full price to replace it with the oil and filter would be over £800. Heart missed a beat when he told me that. Funny enough when I was driving the car to him...

    Car gets extremely jerky when doing U-turns

    Took it my garage to have a look and the fools seemed to make the situation worse. I actually took it there for something else but asked them to have a check at the Haldex and the probs I was experiencing. When I picked up the car they had fixed the other issue and told me the car was jerking...

    De chromed front grill :-D

    That's damned fine looking car there mate. Brilliant job. Looking at it now if I did spray my one and the audi badge it would look pretty good ofset against the red. Then probably would have to get black alloys for the effect to be completed.

    Don't get me wrong, I like the S4 ones but maybe some deep dish alloys would look better.

    Battery Cover Problems

    Took my S3 to a body shop after a stupid woman with a death wish slightly scratched my rear bumper. Insurance job with top garage and they fixed it beautifully with a new one. Got it back and drove off and started to notice a squeaking type noise from the the left front. It sounded like it came...

    Joining the Lucky few

    Bought my 2000 S3 in December and loving every damned moment of it. The admiring glances, the questions at the petrol stations, the roar of the engine. Will post some pics soon. Going to get it chipped soon and been reading the good advice on the forum about that. Also might change the alloys...
