Hi guys. Very long time since I've been on here as I sold my S3 about 6 years ago! I've currently got a BMW 330 Clubsport but have found myself looking at the C5 S6. I am starting to find having a coupe a bit of a pain in the **** (its a nightmare for the dog!) Have seen a few ads for the C5...

S3 Boost Issue Hi I'm having problems with my S3, basically its drives fine off boost but when i put my foot down in 5th/6th gear around 3K revs the car stutters a bit, the revs rise but the car doesn't go any faster for a second and then it goes again, but not quite as well as i expect it...

Hi I'm having problems with my S3, basically its drives fine off boost but when i put my foot down in 5th/6th gear around 3K revs the car stutters a bit, the revs rise but the car doesn't go any faster for a second and then it goes again, but not quite as well as i expect it too. Its fine in...

Hi All The battery on my S3 has died in the snow. I think its been on its way out since i bought the car as its gone flat before after being stood for a few weeks and had to be jump started. What battery do i need for it and where is a good place to order one from? I know i could look but im...

Hi all, This morning driving to work, all was fine. Went over a small pothole (could just be co-incidence) and after this the car wont boost and sounds like an impreza at low revs. No warning lights on the dash, no smoke at all and if i put my foot down a little and let off i can hear the...

I get a rattle coming from the front of the car whenever i shut a door, really getting annoying now, ive had the front bumper off and couldnt really see anything obvious (the car also looks straight as an arrow as well) Any ideas?

Ive put some 6000K xenon bulbs in my s3, now when i turn the lights on they flash once and go off, if i turn them off and restart they flash again. Any ideas? Are the old ballasts not powerfull enough for them or something?

Ive taken the bumper and undone the screws but cant get the headlight out, it seems that the ballast is getting stuck on the slam panel and i cant seem to get it out through wiggling. DO i need to take something else off?

In my S3's manual, it says to check oil once the car is warmed up? Is this right? Im only asking because with all my other cars ive always checked it about 5 mins after the engine or before i go anywhere in it so that all the oil is in the sump (which i assumed would give me a proper reading on...

Hi A friend of mine wants me to lower his 03 Reg Leon Cupra R. (imagine its the same as an S3) Ive done a few cars before but just wanted to know if you have to remove the driveshaft to get the old spring out. I did a MK4 Golf before and managed to get away with not removing it then, is it...

Hi I want to fit a set of wheels to my S3 however they are only availiable in 5x120 with and offset of 42. Is it possible to get these to fit my S3 with some spacer etc, or is the offset wrong. Cheers, Ben

Diagnostic Fault Code Reader Tool A3 S3 A2 A4 A6 Audi on eBay (end time 16-Oct-10 17:10:39 BST) is this what people are referring to when they say VAGCOM? If so for £15 i presume its a worthwhile investment?

Ive just driven my S3 in the dark and on dipped beam the lights seem very dim (much worse than the xenons on my astra GSI) I read a common problem is that the xenons point towards the ground and fear this may be the problem with mine. Im fitting new bulbs as one light is more yellow than...

Hi I bought an S3 at the weekend. Paid £3900 for a 1999 with only 64K on it and a full service history of a nice lady who had owned it for 6 years (she hardly drove it so its only seen about 5K between annual services) Its brilliant black with the blue interior. In pretty good condition...
