Hi, Just wondered if anyone here owns or knows the owner of a 2001 Facelifted Silver S3 with the above reg? It also has a big turbo kit and brembo brakes fitted. I was a previous owner, and have some bits for the car if the owner wants them. Please PM me if you are the owner, or know of who...

Hi chaps, Still got this lying around but no car to use it on. Any ideas what they fetch? Couldn't find any on ebay to gauge it on. Cheers, Glen:icon_thumright:

Hi chaps, My big turbo S3 has finally gone. I will miss it very much indeed.:bye: Just want to say that I have found this forum excellent for all source of Audi knowledge. There have been some really helpful and informed guys on here that have given me invaluable advice. Unfortunately...

Hi, Does anyone know if it is possible to install a RNS-E sat nav into an old 2001 (Face-lifted) 8L? I see a lot of places that do the "retro-fit", only list it for 8L 2003 onwards. Thanks, Glen

Hi All, I have finally come to the difficult decision of selling my big turbo S3. It seems all I do is leave it sitting in the garage most of the time, while paying insurance, tax & mot on it every year. As some of you already know, I have spent a substantial amount on the car with the big...

Saw a black S3 with plate **FLX in Cambridge the other day. I've seen this car before, and it has MTM badge on the back. Looks really nice. Be interested to meet up if you're on here. cheers, Glen

Fitted a set of Eibach pro-kit springs to the car about 7 years ago. Recently it failed the mot due to the rear suspension springs being damaged. Bought a new set, and had the rears replaced. But this was what the old Eibach springs looked like. The other bits are the parts from the top and...

Spotted on Milton Road, Cambridge this afternoon. Nice looking car. Has MTM badge on the back I think.

On the way to work this morning, the ABS/ESP light came on, and stayed on. This happened while I was braking. Also, my brakes are squeeking, and have been doing so for about 2 months now. Anyone have this problem before? Cheers, Glen

I am about to fit a sub to a custom made enclosure, and was wondering what people's thoughts are on fitting acoustic wadding material to the insides of the box? I heard that putting wadding in has the affect of making the box appear larger to the speaker. But at the same time can weaken the...

Hi, I gathering some bits together for installing a subwoofer, to replace my badly distorting Bose sub. I am going to install a 10" sub, but having looked at some of the specs for them, the seem to weigh a ton. Typically 5 - 6 kg just for the driver, and then another 5 kg for the box...

Hi, I have a couple of annoying rattles in the car. One is coming from behind the rear quarter on the side the Bose sub sits. And the other behind the panel that is under the steering wheel. Anyone know how I can remove the rear quarter panel, and panel under the steering wheel? The...

I am about to install a 10" subwoofer in my car, and have narrowed the list down to the following: Alpine SWS-1023D ~ £85 JL Audio 10w3v3 ~ £130 Anyone with experience of these subwoofers care to comment on the best choice? I know the JL's will probably be better, but how much better...

Anyone tried removing the Bose subwoofer for an 8L A3, and installing an amplifier there instead? The space looks pretty tight, so I'd be grateful if anyone has any advice. Thanks, Glen

Hi, Anyone know of a good mono/dual channel amplifier I can use to power a 10" sub, which will also fit neatly in the place where the Bose sub currently occupies? Also, while on the topic, which is better: a Mono amp, or a 2 channel sub in bridged mode? Cheers, Glen

Hi, I seem to have some distortion coming from my sub when playing certain kinds of low frequency music. But to distinguish whether it is a design flaw or a defect with my subwoofer drivers, I need to listen to someone elses. Anyone in the Cambridge area with Bose, kind enough to let me...

Just like some of your honest opinions on a situation. Assume you paid a tuner to do a complete big turbo conversion on your car, and also specified that you wanted a FMIC fitted. Would one expect the tuner to have replaced the rubber top hoses going from the turbo pipe (which is part of...

Here is a short clip of a rolling session done after fitting the Backdraft kit. Maha roller I believe. Thought I'd share with everyone. Rolling road Cheers, Glen

Hey, So where do all you folks take your big turbo'd S3/A3's for your servicing?
