Thanks for that. I was going to try something similar on the rear. I has a 4mm 90degree connector lying about which i tried to use on the front, but couldn't get it in the corrugated plastic tubing, so thought I'd try the 3mm ones.

I've ended up just buying a 3mm male-male hose connector to fix the front piece. It's not very clear on the vagcat site which item is needed so I will have to pop in past Audi and get them to check. Thanks

Thanks for that Mk1 Chopper. I'll get registered on there and see which parts come up. The part I need isn't in that repair kit.

I see. Did you replace the bit from the rear washer up to the connector in the boot or the whole lot front to back?

I've been tracking down the cause of my rear washer not working and found a split corrugated plastic pipe under the scuttle panel (in with the wiring loom - genius idea Audi!). I was trying to find the part number for the male/female push connectors used elsewhere in the washer system but my...

Thought I'd update this as the car is working fine again :) Needed 1 new coilpack (and a new set of plugs for good measure) and a new MAF. Seems to be working fine now which is all good :)

Well, some progress on this issue! Dodgy coilpack is replaced along with new plugs which has solved the misfiring. Now it seems my MAF is dead... Rough idling with it plugged in, fine when its unplugged... I tried cleaning it and refitting with no success, is it ok to run the car without the...

Thanks for that. Just been out and checked the car over properly. I checked over wiring/electrical connectors and vacuum lines etc, couldn't see anything obvious hanging off. I double checked the car had the N249 bybass which it does and it is plugged in with good wiring so unsure why it...

Mornin all, Last wednesday my 2002 S3 went a little funny on me. I was sitting at a roundabout and when I went to set off the car struggled as soon as I hit the throttle, by struggled I mean the revs would drop very quickly causing the car to stall out. This happened a few times and when I...

Thanks, Is eBay the easiest place to get the tool/oil/filter? I'm going to be out of the country for the week so need to order it online.

Hi guys, thanks for all the advice. I am pretty hands on when it comes to my cars, but this is the first one I have had with a haldex 4WD system. The noise appeared to disappear yesterday, however I am not 100% happy as it can't have just happened and fixed itself! I had the wheels off last...

I've read about removing the haldex fuse to see if the noise stops at all? The car has been well looked after and the haldex was serviced not long before I bought the car earlier this year. I also read about possible CV issues? I thought these 'clicked' rather than vibrate/grind/rubbing...

I'm not sure, how do I check that it is or not? I tried turning off the ESP as I read something about the haldex, but it doesn't change the noise at all?

I've had my S3 8L since February and it hasn't missed a beat (flew through its mot a couple of weeks ago too :)) Today I noticed a strange noise when I was in a car park turning. Basically there is a vibrating/rubbing (almost like the handbrake has been left on) sound coming form the rear...

I have been reading up on exhaust systems for my S3 and need some advice. I have a full stainless exhaust from the turbo back that was on my car when I bought it. On closer inspection it would seem that this does not have a catalytic convertor on it and I am need one for it to pass an MOT in...

I thought there wasn't enough pressure getting to the jets to push them up. The washer nozzles are still in place too... This is strange. I will try another pump and see if that gives more pressure.

I have tried searching the FAQ's and previous posts but can't find a solution to a problem i'm having with my headlamp washer jets. Basically my headlamp washers don't seem to work with the water pressure from the pump and I can't figure out why. The washer pump kicks in after a few seconds...

im sure that you will only be getting one power feed to the headunit, so it will not turn on. You will have to run a separate switched ignition power line to the headunit.

Nice :)

Yikes that's not good at all! At least nobody was hurt.
