Well, I could finally contact Valeo in Spain. They answered me that their pressure plate would work with slave cylinders from other manufacturers. Just in case somebody finds the same problem :thumbsup:

Nobody? I contacted Valeo but they are not answering :(

Hi guys, this is yet another clutch thread... I hope you don't mind! I asked about my DMF in this thread -> "Knock" when revving, faulty DMF? And as far as I'm concerned, (and several people had a look and told me so) it is my DMF. I am planning to buy this SMF conversion kit (LINK) As I...

Maybe a faulty injector or noisy hydraulic lifters? Does it sound more as you rev up?

Awesome S3. S4 wheels are the best for it IMHO. Stunning Golf, too. I love your garage :D

Check the wiring, a friend had some wires "burnt" by the exhaust heat, and the error code said it was a faulty sensor. If your wiring is okay, maybe your catalytic converter has passed away... :(

The same happens with mine. "Tired" bulbs maybe? Let's see if someone knows what causes this.

I wouldn't say that they are not good, you can use them again, but new ones would always be better.

In a stock car with only 116.000kms? Sounds strange, but I never thought about that possibility... And it scares me!

Could it be low oil pressure? IMHO it would be great to install a gauge to check the oil pressure under different use conditions. Maybe then you can make some conclusions. A friend with a BMW had similar issues and it was all about oil pressure.

So this weekend I fitted my new pump. First of all we need to make some room to reach the pump location, and there it is. We first unplug the connector and then unplug the pump from the bottle pulling it gently. The windscreen washer liquid starts to come out the bottle. Then we need to...

No. Well, sometimes yes, but it has nothing to do with this knocking. This one knocks faster as you rev up. Someone can bring me any light? Thanks!

Hi all, One day a rotational knock appeared in my S3. It was very soft and I could only hear it when I start to roll in 1st gear (when clutch pedal is being released). I thought it was a clutch issue, but after a couple of months getting louder, now it knocks in every gear, clutch pedal...

Looks great! The colour and those wheels & brakes...:eyebrows: I like the tiny front license plate you have in Switzerland, too, lol

It didn't. But now it's here :yes:

Yes it is. I replaced the bushes and it was a nightmare because the sizes may vary from 18 to 20mm. I wasn't able to buy the correct ones until I measured the anti-roll bar diameter...

Yep, it is definitely the pump. Ordered a new one for 20€. I hope it arrives before the weekend.

Is there white smoke coming from the exhaust? Maybe you're burning oil. Check the shaft, I think your turbo seals/bearings are out

My thermostat also failed last year. During the summer I could barely notice it, but in the winter the temp never went over 60ºC. I tried to replace it without removing the alternator, but there was a bolt that was a pita to remove. With the alternator out is way easier but it takes more time...

Thank you Mark! So you mean it's nº3 what I'm looking for? I would give it a try this weekend.
