I went to see the Audi Tech at the weekend, the head gasket just has a small leak it hasn't blown like I thought. The tech guy said they will test the head as well, he also said that they have had the same problem on another S3 recently.

Good Afternoon I have been losing coolant for a few weeks, had the car in at Audi who diagnosed leaking water pump. Just had a call from Audi saying that they miss diagnosed and it's the head gasket that needs replacing. All work is covered under warranty as the car is 3 years old in July, my...

Hi Got my black grill in the post today (2010 S3) and have a couple of questions regarding what to do with the number plate. 1. The new grill doesn't have holes for the number plate screws, should I drill holes or get a new number plate and stick it to the grill? 2. If I drill new holes...

I had the same problem, as Jungleman said get the wheels balanced with the spacers, I went down the marker route. I only got the fronts done, do you think it's worth getting the rears done as well Jungleman?

Hi I am bidding for a black grill on Ebay for my 2010 S3, does anyone know a ballpark figure that my current chrome grill would be worth? It's in good condition as only covered 11,000 miles. Thanks Coxy

Hello mate I will take some pics and get them up over the weekend, yes I am running standard S3 wheels as yet it's not lowered. Gotta take time with the mods as the wife thinks I'm wasting money. C

Yea all sorted, had the wobbly problem for a few days and have been driving down the M1 into London all week, hate driving the car when there is something wrong with it.

Hi Wez I have just had the H&R spacers fitted to my S3, I got my local garage to fit them as I don't really get my hands dirty these days. After they were fitted I had issues with the steering wheel wobbling at about 75mph. Jungleman advised me to get the wheels balanced with the spacers...

One last question - So the spacer needs to be attached to the wheel when balancing? I didn't fit the spacers so can take the car back to the place that did it for me and get them to balance the wheels.

Good Morning On the weekend I hade some H&R spacers fitted to my 2010 S3, I went for the 10mm front 12mm rear set up, since having them fitted at around 75mph on the motorway I am getting a wobble through the steering wheel. From searching on the forum it appears that my simptons are similar...

I contacted DPM for a price on the spacers (10mm front 12mm rear) and with the bolts they are £224.31 delivered, thought they would be cheaper than that. Can someone explain coilovers to me, when I was younger I lowered my Nova SR with Spax springs and struts, are coilovers a totally different...
