    Hi All, Fairly new owner of a Daytona Grey S1 and loving it so far, included a picture! I have the super sports seats but not the Quattro pack and was wondering what size the Quattro decals on the back of the seats are and if you can buy them separately? Thanks

    q3 climate control

    Hi everyone, just been looking at photos of the new q3 and noticed that the climate unit looks exactly like the one in the a3 but the screen is white and the seat heater controls are buttons instead of dials like on our cars.

    Nigel, a very patient man :)

    Finally got around to meeting with Nigel to fit the new fuel pump to go with my white dis conversion. I met him at 9:30 this morning and he took the old pump out and put the new one in within an hour and a bit. I also noticed since fitting the white dis that my SDS had only been working on the...

In every other climate control system i have used i...
