Okay, just to update: Official answer from Audi Head Office is 'they don't themselves'. Brilliant.

Hence why I believe it was the PS2. But if anyone knows for sure - or can provide a link that would be very helpful.

Hi all, Hoping some clever cloggs will know the answer. I have asked Audi, looked in the handbook and searched this forum to no avail. Can someone tell me in black and white print where is states the original OEM tyre for the Audi S3 8P 2007? It only states the size. I have a feeling it is the...

I wanted to update all on this - it appears at first glance it's a faulty cam seal. Problem lies in the fact that the oil is everywhere and a lot needs stripping and my cambelt (recently replaced only <500 miles ago) is needing replacing again. Crazy bad luck. Won't have my car for a week as...

Sorry - it's an S3 (2.0). I've had issues with previous cars ticking slightly higher, but it has normally gone okay after revving it out (like a sticky throttle). I would love for it to be a loose plug! I have driven 1,000 miles now since the major service. 350 of those today. I just can't...

Hi all, Did a 350 mile trip today from London > Hereford > London. My car started to tick over to 2,000 rpm at idle 5 miles from starting my trip. Normally it is at 1,000. I could rev it out sometimes where it would go back to 1,000 rpm. 150 miles later and I had an 'engine oil low' appear...

Got some today on my way up out of London at Watford towards M25. 1 litre @ £1.40. I couldn't tell you how it went due to issues with my car as it started to tick over and bust a load of oil out onto the road. Hopefully and obviously unrelated.

Mileage is no barrier for any car. It just has to be looked after. A high mileage engine that has had many component changes is better than a 50k without any. 183,000 miles however is a whopper. Motorway miles - or more precisely, European miles is the only possible explanation, which is a good...

£400? And the rest. My car has done 39,000 miles and the tensioner started to squeal. £570 i believe from Audi (discounted) for Cambelt, Water Pump and tensioners thrown in. Also Bose is 100% worth it. The standard speakers are crap. With regards to cruise - I have in all honesty never even...

The worst thing about this is my very old pug 306 GTi6 some many years ago now, I paid out thousands, but I did so with a wry smile knowing my car would be back to its glorious best. I loved that thing. I can't find any enjoyment out of this car apart from it looks lovely and the interior is...

Hi All, I have always wanted an S3. I bought one in top spec. For the last 7 months it has been so damned unreliable. 1. Sat Nav not working 2. Cambelt squeal at 39k 3. Lighter not working 4. Emission light intermittent 5. Engine Management light likes to come on occassionally This on top of...

I have PM'd ^ But I guess you couldn't make it. Anyone else with any recommendations?

Hi all - I have come to the conclusion my CD lens must be ********; I'm not entirely sure it just needs a clean. I have seen other threads with replacement of the CD lens with success. I have called Impulse in Watford who do not do repairs. They provided me with a contact number of an...

Okay I can confirm it is definitely CD as music CD also was unable to read. This would now seem to be the main cause. How exactly do I clean it - just stick a cotton bud in an reach for the top and clean? It is going into Audi for a major service and they are supposed to take a look at it -...

I should attempt a music CD and see how we get along as I really only use SD for music. I have 2 disks re Sat Nav - 1 original; 1 copy. Update tomorrow I guess :(

Hi All, I have an S3 2007 but with a newer model of the Multimedia System installed. It has been playing havoc lately, but mainly with the Satellite Navigation which requires a CD to make it work - this is such a rubbish idea. Audi deserve to be shot for this one thing alone. If I go to the...

Still no answer. The intercom is on the front gate - you can't get to the front door. I have thought about climbing over the rear fence and walking up to their back door and knocking on it. No doubt he'll say it is private land to which I'll laughably respond on this one. I think I don't have a...

London.

Hi all, My car has been damaged multiple times by someone who clearly had complete contempt for my vehicle whilst transporting his tools about. I reside in a block of flats which has its own rear driveway. Private land. At the back of my block is one massive house, CCTV'd up to the eyeballs...

It's gone out over the weekend. I completed circa 300 miles, so put in my first good drive with a bit of fun to boot, and the light went out - and strangely, and I don't think I'm being incorrect when saying my MPG went up to late 20's for the first time. In any event, as much as this car is...
