Chaps, My S3 has developed the common leaky PAS pipe problem - the short one that loops back on itself along the bottom of the front bumper. No biggy I thought, £60.00, bish bash bosh, job done. But oh no. On removing the old one I've discovered the return pipe that it connects to also has a...

This stuff has been a regular in my wash kit for ages now. I spray headlining and carpets and it keeps the S3 smelling fresh as a daisy.

Chaps, I've got a small leak going on under the S3 which when coupled with my other symptoms, I believe to be PAS fluid (common pipe corrosion issue I think). In addition, the car has today developed a whining noise which I believe will be the PAS pump running low on fluid (haven't been able...

If you can get the unit out of the dash and get the lid off it might be something silly like a slipped CD. Otherwise there's these on the bay; AUDI A3 01-03 SYMPHONY DOUBLE DIN RADIO CASSETTE 6 CD CHANGER UNIT 8L0035195 | eBay Audi Symphony 2 II S3 A3 cassette CD Radio with Code. part...

In the voice of Borat, HIGH FIVE!

Oi! There is NOTHING wrong with being a sad OEM whore... Jay, I prefer the OEM 'sleeper' look but those wheels do look sweet - good work :icon_thumright:

If you have to, gloss. In my opinion. What colour is the car?

Thanks guys. I've ordered some 4mm silicone vacuum pipe from ebay and will just bypass it, I'm done with messing about and refuse to pay Audi's ridiculous prices (£125 for some rubber hoses, seriously). For what it's worth, if anyone does need replacement individual parts for the N249 or other...

£125.00??! Jesus! What is it with these Audi clowns?? I'll be ordering a £20 hose kit off ebay then. Jokers!

Cheers guys and sorry my bad. N249 it is. Those two words that bring joy to my heart - 'Dealer only'. I'm keen to keep the car as stock as possible so would rather keep the N249. I'll run down to the local stealer tomorrow. Thanks for the responses dudes.

Guys, Can anyone help me with part numbers for the arrowed items below? Car is 2003 S3 with AMK engine. The white 'T' piece has actually snapped and has a crack running through it, the arrowed hose has also split. I've checked the hose for writing but it's so old I can't decipher what's...

So it seems. I didn't realise Forge sell direct so I've ordered a replacement from their website - more Forge goodies! Cheers for all the help.

Sorry to bump an old thread. I finally got some proper car time today and have traced the issue back to a failed hose on the hot side of the turbo - the elbow that sits between the turbo and metal charge pipe. The lip on the turbo join has been blown to buggery so it slips past the jubilee clip...

You make some good points regarding a slow build up to exercise, then ruin it with pure ignorance. Unless I'm very much mistaken, you don't know the person in question, have no clue towards his physical condition or medical history and you're very clearly not a health professional. You (or...

I love the street sleeper appeal. Those who know their cars know what it is. Those who don't think it's an A3. Wouldn't want it any other way.

Your GP will be able to give you a good run down. Perhaps you've just overdone it, better to be safe than make an injury worse. I consider myself to be reasonably fit and did the 3 peaks challenge last year - it took me two days to walk properly again. John Wayne had nothing on me!

Fast food joint and exercise - Nothing like a bit of torture! Good luck chap - just remember that banzai exercise sessions won't do much without a decent diet to back it up :thumbsup:

I'll add my two pence worth... 1. If the pain is as bad as you say it is see your GP. It could be something simple like pulled quad muscles, but equally it could be a trapped nerve or similar (especially as you've had similar pain from laying under the car previously). Bottom line - getting a...

Right, Sorry for delayed response. I've had a look under the bonnet for oily hoses and couldn't see anything obvious. The previous owner had a collection of OEM hoses replaced with Forge Motorsport items, including most of those under the inlet manifold. Since my last post I've now got my...
