    Xenon's (again)

    Right. I've had the lamps checked out on three seperate occasions and I've been told they are OK. So, Is it normal for me to see only about 6 feet in front of the car in the dark? It's really tricky driving in the dark coz I can't fekin see anything ahead of me I'm losing the will to live...

    New S3 4 me??

    I been geeting itchy feet and thinking of getting a newer S3. I bought my cuurent about a year ago and I love it. The thing is though I want to get one of the last '03 225ps models, preferably in Dolphin, with all the toys including Sat-Nav, Bose etc. I intend it to be my last car change for at...

    Do you take your car to work?

    Only asking coz I'm using public transport and feeling left out. Keeps the mileage down though and saves me driving round in circles trying to get a parking space. My S3 is now strictly for weekend use only!!

    S3 Washer Jets

    OK chaps. I think I'll get them checked. I'm talking about temps just below freezing. In extreme conditions for this place like 15 below then I would have expected them maybe not to work but this is like 2 and 3 degrees below and they freeze. Cheers Ian

    S3 Washer Jets

    Should they be heated? I'm fed up with a smeared windscreen and no windscreen screen wash when it's freezing. I've tried anti freeze screen wash additive but makes no difference after it's been freezing. I had heated jets on my last couple of cars and they are well smart. Being able to clear a...

    the wifes nicked the S3

    i had a new driver's side fron windscreen fitted by AutoGlass/ AutoWindscreens last week and the glass they replaced it with was exactly the same thinkness and size. The only thing i would add is make sure that you insist ABSOLUTELY that the fitter has done a car the same as yours before...

    50 in a 40..My own fault I know!! The annoying thing is it was on M74 when heading south for my hols!! The only place I can think of was a section of roadworks that had a 40 limit. I was in a flow of traffic though so I can safely assume Stratchclyde's finest's coffers will be bulging over this...

    service intervals

    The service indicator is pretty up and down depending on your driving style. I have had the indicator varied +/- 10000m It should settle after a month's run in. Ian
