Thanks for the info I`ll get one ordered asap ..

Hi all The bother I`m getting is pressure pulling down my oil filler cap and the same with the dipstick when I gently pull it up. After having a search it looks like my problem could be the crankcase breather valve I took of the UFO shaped valve and you blow through it both ways so that must be...

Suppose there are some benefits to being an old git mines with Admiral at £289 as mentioned above get your misses etc on the insurance.When I had a Renault 5 gt turbo it was cheaper to have the wife on the insurance with L plates as a named driver than me to insure it by myself was a cool car...

Keep your eye out on e.bay these bits always turn up paid £15 for a lightswitch and £45 for the air-con unit both as new condition worth checking regulalry...

Thanks Prawn I have a Sealey VS8650 reader worked well on other VW/Audis will give it a go. I`ve owned the car 6 mths.Although on that the car does feel very smooth so maybe it`s all ok.Would a stage 1 Revo make it feel a bit more "lively" or do you reckon 99k miles is getting on a bit to start...

Thanks for that didn`t know of that pipe will check it out..

HI guys My S3 does appear to be sluggish and has no real turbo kick.My car is the BAM engine has 99k miles and standard in every way.You can hear the turbo spool up but then you dont feel any real power from it.Turbo sounds fine no odd noises but you cant feel the power at the same time as the...

Hi Guys had my 2002 BAM Code S3 for about 6mths now the car has 99k miles un-modified I don`t really drive it hard. Question is I run the car on fully synthetic 5-30W and over a 1k miles it has virtually used no oil still nice and clean driving A roads-town driving,but having just driven a few...

Ah I see thanks for that David I do notice that if do a short run ie less than 10mins it is running anything longer then it isnt the pump runs quiet and all fuses etc look clean no melting etc just wasnt sure if it kicked in similar to radiator fans..

Does anyone know what controls or determines when the after-run pump should come on as mine seems a bit random sometimes it runs sometimes it doesn`t..ie does it kick in at a certain temperature similar to the main cooling fans..

For a 225hp car I personally think the S3 is very good on fuel I don`t drive mine hard and luckily don`t do high mileage per year.In fact I did the opposite and bought the S3 because running a VR6 Golf then an Impreza was expensive and find the S3 a BIG difference than those two in fact its no...

The Quote I had from Audi for a new remote key was £167 as I wanted a spare as I only got 1 with my S3..

Thanks a lot Karl will grab a cheapy system off E.bay and give it a go..

HI Guys I`m sure I`ve read a post about modifying the standard exhaust system on an S3 but can`t find anything on the search.Is it possible to modify the system to make it breath better without making it sound terrible and actually noticing a difference.Didnt know if you removed the centre box...

Last Dec price I was quoted for S3 wing`s was (gen Audi) £147.23 inc vat each no idea if this varies from dealers

A few years back I used to always swear by the Toad Ai606 CAT1 Systems.Looking back it was a ballache with the passive immobiliser having to press the key fob to start the car if you havn`t after 30secs of opening car as above I would stick with what you have if you want a good visible deterent...
