Yes exactly - if you were always drawing out bubbles then the system must not be properly sealed. I find it reassuring seeing the situation at the caliper myself, whilst also acting as the 'valve' by opening or closing the bleed screw directly. Will be interested to know if replacing the...

One day, my suspension started creaking when doing low speed turns in car parks. It turned out to be a cracked front spring.

I did the S3 front brake conversion on my own A3 2.0 TDi without changing the master cylinder... No issues at all, so I'd agree with NHN that it's not needed. However, if you can't get a firm pedal then it could just be coincidence that you may now need to look at the MC! Also, I've always...

Still haven't had this done yet, but found an interesting document explaining what's involved!

Recently received a letter from Audi on this!

Much appreciated, thanks for the info. In the end I got a water pump from Audi, out of convenience and because it was the same price as TPS... as you say, just need to return my old pump to get refunded the surcharge!

Hey, thanks s3facelift09 ! That looks like a really helpful site. Do you have any experience with buying from them? Good or bad, it'd be good to hear! Thanks

So to round off this thread... Contacted TPS and the prices quoted were about the same as Audi main dealers - belt kit £230 + VAT and water pump £43 + VAT (pump on an exchange basis). Obviously not receiving any kind of discount, so perhaps it's who you know. As advised, contacted mjr901 on...

Thanks both for your replies. Good point Darren92, how did yours go in the end? Was the kit via VW cheaper than through Audi? Zerocool - I did see TPS mentioned when searching the forum, but after searching the web it looks like you need to be a dealer / member of some sort to get the items...

Hi all Apologies to post another thread on this subject, but searching hasn't provided me with the answer I'm looking for. In short, my 2009 2.0 TDi 140 is due a cambelt / timing belt change. When searching for a replacement part to have fitted at my local (and trusted) garage, I'm getting a...

Jambo, any comment on braking performance with the S3 kit now fitted? Interested to hear whether it lives up to your expectations.

When the air and fuel filters are due for a change, you could just book an interim, get the stamp for an oil change and replace the additional filters yourself, saving £150 in the process.

When planning to get my car serviced in the near future, I've had the same query as asked in the original post. The fixed price servicing as per the Audi website shows a major service as twice the price of an interim service, with the only stated difference being a change of air and fuel...

I have the exact same issue as described in the 1st post, only difference being sometimes I get the DIS message for a mili-second without the beep actually going off. It may be coincidence, but I'm pretty sure the issue only started after I took the battery off the car to charge it. Not that...

I dont have RNS-E, but on my Chorus the volume does start up at a pre-set level and I cant make this lower than about 1/5th of the scale or mute. Also, when I turn on the headlamps to sidelights after starting up the car, the radio makes a buzzy / hissing sound for a couple of seconds. SR, Is...

While we're on the subject, would you use this kind of thing on caliper slider pins too, or copper grease / red-rubber grease instead?

I recently charged the battery on mine and had the 'ESP fault - check your manual' message appear when I installed an old spare battery whilst charging the original off the car. But this may have been due to interruption rather than low voltage. The warning was present even when I started the...
