    My car has just had its first service (on longlife) and i checked the DIS, it says: Service due: 18,500 miles / 730 days Oil change: 9,500 miles / 365 days Is this correct? On longlife, I thought the oil change and service were due at the same time (as per my first service)? Cheers

    LED DRL brightness, can it be adjusted

    Hi guys, Anyone know if the brightness on the LED DRL's can be adjusted with VCDS/VAGCOM? I'd prefer it if they didn't dim when the sidelights are turned on or when the indicators are on. Cheers :)

    Facelift owners with DRL's, headlight question

    My car is 10 months old and i've noticed the inside of the headlight lenses have a few water spots on them (I have xenons with DRL's). The headlights have misted up occasionally when i've driven in heavy rain which I think has caused the marks. I know headlights are not a sealed unit, they...

    Change headlight washer delay, is it possible?

    Does anyone know if you can change the delay for the headlight washers with vag-com. I'd like to extend it for a few seconds as I don't want them spraying the headlights every time I use the wash wipe. Cheers.

    Blacked out S-Line badges, anyone interested

    I was having a play with photoshop a few weeks ago and wondered how the S-Line badge would look in black, I think this would really suit cars with the optics grille because the silver badge looks a little out of place. The badge would be very difficult/impossible to paint but i've been...

    Nice mod for the pre-facelift S-lines

    Thought this was pretty cool, not sure if it's been done yet? Painting the lower centre section of the bumper matt black, looks quite similar to the splitter on '09 facelift :)

    Feeler: Swap my OEM RS4's

    Would anyone with a facelift S3 be interested in swapping their wheels for my OEM RS4's. Factory fitted to my 58 plate S-Line and have only covered 4000 miles from new. Nothing wrong with the RS4's, I just prefer the look of the S3 wheels. The RS4's were never available as an option on the...

    S3 grille fitted to my S-line facelift

    Hi guys, Had my car for 2 months now and couldn't resist doing a couple of mods :laugh: I always felt the new grille on the facelift looked a bit bland (the standard S-line grille is no longer unique to the S-line). I wasn't overly keen on the black optics grille on a black car as it...
