Yeh pretty sure its the head. Now i know this was a huge issue but Audi claim to have no record of it on there system, despite every audi service centre being aware of the issue. The car does not have full Audi service history ( part ) but has FSH, is on 68K so fairly low milage for the year...

My dad has an A3 aswell. His is a 2.0 TDi sport, 69000 miles on a 53 Plate. Started using coolant like mad the last few days and smoking heavily on startup and for a good few minutes after whilst under any load. Its been at the garage today and they say they've put die in the coolant and...

My dad's has the same issue, how did you go about disconnecting it?

Anything i need to do with the gear gaitor surround?

Yeh any tips on how to remove the console? I spotted two bolts under the air conditioning bit and two if you remove the ash tray at the back but is that all there is to it?

Anyone on here have any info on how to go about doing this? Reason for doing so is i've bought an iPod adaptor and want to route it from behind the headunit to under where the cup holder/sliding storage space is next to the handbrake from underneath. Any info/guides are greatly...

There should be a mark on the side of your coolant expansion tank. The bottom line shows the minimum, and the top of the max amount of coolant. I would check theres enough coolant in the system and that its not just water. I would certainly not be driving the car if it is mainly water as...

Correct Coolant is VAG spec G12 from any motor factor or G12+ if buying from Audi.

:ohmy: Looks great!

My Dads a Dr. of Mech Eng and i almost ended up on a Aerospace Eng. Degree ( before changing subjects ), get her a subscription to professional engineering magazine/journal. Very good jobs posted in there aswell. S

Cheers, i was getting confused with the bumper i posted and thought it would fit like a 2006 one. Yeh i noticed the different valances and have read threads about the exhausts not sitting right on different ones, but all valances fit all bumpers yes? And yeh you mean MY09 lights and the such...

Right think i understand now. The one i posted is from a 2009 which is the 2nd facelift they did. If i was to fit a 2006 s line front end, then it would just be bonnet/bumper/side to side bar - is that right? Also, which rear bumpers will fit? They're all the same at the back right? S

Is the bumper i posted not simply a 2009 s line like the conversion i posted anyway?

Really? I thought it was the S3 front that required new lights and wings? I know its not a small task, thats fine, the front end of the car needs work anyway so somethings going to happen either way but i thought i might aswell put on the newer style one as its more to my liking whilst...

Is it literally the same as this then? http://www.audi-sport.net/vb/new-a3-s3-sportback-8p-chassis/54571-conversion-pre-facelift-double-grill-bumper-facelift-s-line-bumper.html No need for lights or wings?

Can this be done and what does it entail? I have read the guides on converting form double to single grill and from Single to S-Line But can an 8P1 be converted directly to a 2009 S line front? I'm guessing it needs, Bumper and Bonnet, but will it need lights and wings too? What...
