Whilst its well specced I'd say no more than £8k. 3.2s have dropped like a stone in value (strangely, every since I bought one a couple years ago).

the correct tyre size for an A3 with 17s is either 205/50 17 (M+S) or 225/45 17. These 2 are within 3mm rolling diameter of 225/40 18, whereas 225/50 17 is 20mm out and 225/55 17 is 40mm out.

Hi Guys, Looking to change my clutch and DMF this winter and I was wondering if anyone has done it before and can pass on some words of wisdom. I don't think there are any service or repair manuals for the quattro models, is there an internal instruction on how to do it from audi that could be...

having just read everyone else's replies, I think I might be on the wrong forum, you all seem to be woefully uninformed on how a car actually works, so I'll sign off thanks.

19s will ruin the following: ride comfort (massive reduction in tyre side wall size will have a big affect) handling (bigger, heavier wheels stuck on the end of the suspension have a massive affect, and minor changes in contact patch centre line affects scrub radius, having a big affect on how...

sorry to join the party late but what are these CAN bus related issues? have you approached anyone with a CAN viewer to see if you have the correct messages present? I have worked a lot with CAN bus recently so like to think I might be able to help!

Going to try to get the car in at a local specialist tomorrow, just concerned that its going to be the dreaded ABS pump issue causing the ESP light to be on, but can't think why its got the really bad misfire without engine management or EPC light being on.

On the way home today (luckily, the end of my road) the ESP light came on on the dash, followed by the engine cutting out. Restarted the car, cut out again, restarted the car and used the throttle to keep the engine running. ESP light will not go out and if off throttle, the engine has a bad...

dont want to offend anyone but i find this thread really odd! never needed more than half an hour with the dealer to decide on a car. get in, drive along a fast A road/dual carriageway, drive slowly around a town, then give it an absolutely thrashing down a country road. keep an eye on the...

it takes probably 2 hours to do the job at a normal speed, so check the labour rate with the garage. if your concerned about the parts that are to be fitted then tell the garage you want original parts, and if they make a fuss about it, buy the parts yourself from euro car parts/gsf/audi and...

yellow stuff are described as a track day pad that is not safe for use on the public highway!! think you are thinking of green stuff! the only reason you should buy EBC pads is because they would match colour coded calipers. they coefficient of friction changes hugely with temperature, so the...

providing the tyres are the same size it wont matter. quattro owners manuals also say that the tyres dont need to have the same tread depth, just need to be the same size. the slight changes in width and rolling radius between different brand tyres of the same size will account for no more of a...

did the rad on my 3.2 and to be honest it was a bit of a nightmare, bumper, crash structure, cross member had to come off.

just for a bit of an experiment i disconnected the vacuum metering unit today (fitted inline between the inlet manifold and the vacuum canister, got some wiring loom coming off it) with the engine running and straight away got an engine management light on, but the car ran exactly the same...

strap was fine, where abouts is the vacuum point for the tail pipe valve? only a thought but would it be possible for say 5 people with similar symptoms and 5 people without to lend cars to audi for a week or so to find out what is different between the good and bad cars? Obviously in exchange...

hey guys just read most of this thread and im enthralled! 2005 plate done 54000 miles, been doing it since about 45000, had spark plugs done at 48000 (slight improvement) and fuel filter done at 52000 (as part of a full service, negligable improvement). i find that it judders when cruising at...
