    2011 S3 - what are your tyre pressure preferences?

    Door sticker says 42psi front and 33psi rear for my use but does anyone run lower? I’ve just had some Asymmetric 6’s fitted today so as always, there isn’t a tyre fitter I’ve been to in 12 years that inflates to 42psi in the fronts. Just wondering folks……

    Is there an error code for a defective heated wing mirror? Near side one doesn’t seem to be working (only one chance to test it so far), although it auto dims ok. Tonight is the first almost frost I’ve been out in to see it not working. Lol. T.I.A. folks, [emoji1303][emoji3]

    Disappointing Michelin PS4 tread wear....

    As title, 4 tyres have been on the car for only 15400 miles over 23 months and are now only 3 to 3.5mm of tread left! WTF?

    2011 S3 hazard light flash

    So, I walk up to my car, press key fob once, get in and as I sit down I notice the hazard lights flash only twice I think it was. By the time I notice it they have stopped. I don't see it often, but what the hell does it mean?
