thanks lads....s3dave, thanks mate, i may take you up on that..i've never used this vagcom thing, is it straight forward to do?

advice please guys... from reading the forum i've found it's a regular problem. tonight my ABS and ESP amber caution lights illuminated and remained on. i got home, had a read of the manual and forum etc and without jacking up the car and removing the wheels, i went to check the car for...

...er hmmmm....guess what, i am now hanging my head in shame. DaveA3..muppet mode had been engaged..it was ****** selected off!..i'll get me coat! my excuse: i thought when the light was on, it indicated the system was operating ie disconnecting drive to the wheels, but had stuck on..i now...

my car is 2001 a3 1.8 t sport fwd....yesterday, i got stuck on some ice. i had the esp selected on as normal but i turned it off to try at least get some wheel movement to get me out of the ice. i managed after some effort to get out of the ice and then turned the esp back on..the light is now...

hi, i've had a quick search through the forum and can't find much info on the correct standard wheel and hub specifications for my A3 1.8t sport. can anyone point me in the right direction as i want to buy a set of 18" RS4 alloys for my 2001 t sport. i want a direct fit with out use of...

yeah, i see your point 'doc'....think i'll try with some higher ron fuel and see if there's a difference. i've been using sainsbury's motion lotion for the nectar!..yeah i know..

westle..jojo....i'm a knobber!..can't believe i made the classic typo ****-up...tail between my legs.."i'll get me coat....." and yes, it is the FTO...of which i am still very attached, and still have parked in my garage.:rolleyes:

MAF seems to be okay? .. that's signified by sluggish acceleration isn't it?, so it can't be that because it accelerates too efficiently!..i'm really driving very sedately, so i've not got heavy foot syndrome. from what i'm reading it sounds the crap mpg is normal..just can't get my head round...

i think i put in 49-50 litres on my last fill?..i've not done the reset as you explained so i'll do that and see what i get next time i fill up.

hi jojo..yep..pretty crap. like i mentioned, i'm filling the tank up to max, which is supposed to be 55 litres? and the mileage i got was 280. this is the first time i've checked it as i've only had the car a few weeks. filled it up again and i'm currently counting the miles to see how it...

..yep, got the mpg on DIS. to aid mpg do you reckon it's best to have the average mpg or 'live' mpg displaying? i have been displaying average mpg...doesn't seem to be too accurate neither!...34-35mpg? i don't think so!

thanks for the replies so far fella's...well, it looks as though i'm about average mpg then?..i must admit i was hoping to get similar figure to 'sportquattro' to be honest. sorry if it's a dumb question, but i've never had a car with a turbo before. how can i tell if my car is running off boost...

having switched over from japanese coupe's, i'm loving my 2001 A3 1.8 T sport..apart from the fuel consumption!....out of a full tank (55 litres?),i've only managed to get 280 miles!..there must be something wrong?. my previous jap v6 coupe gave me 350 mpg. i've been driving very...

thanks for the reply 'byzan A4'....just after posting the thread i went out to have a closer look and luckily i found the problem..it was simply that the terminal block had pulled slighty away from the back of the switch body. the wiring loom has hardly any slack and is extremely tight behind...
