    Whats ok to wash with on a re-srayed wing?

    I've always bee told to leave respayed paintwork for a couple of months before waxing because it is still softish. New from the factory is OK from the off because it has been baked without all the trim in place so they can go hotter and hence the finish is harder.

    Excess Oil Usage ??

    Anywhere in the hashed area is fine but the top of the hashing isn't full. The manual says in hot weather or if the car is working harder than normal such as pulling a something ( I could say caravan, but for **** sake who would pull a caravan with an S3 so I'll say something cooler like a jet...

    This Cold Weather

    I heard that. I think it was something to do with protecting the compressor that pumps the refrigerant. I guess when heat is required that would be provided by the engine. Not by any means certain of this but it kind of makes sense.

    This Cold Weather

    No °C You know when you use the CC to get to the 'diagnostic data'. Option 51 is labelled as Coolant temp, but seeing how it only ever gets as high as 75°C on mine and the temp gauge on the dash shows 90°C I'm thinking it maybe oil temp. Anyway, I had turned it on this morning to see just how...

    What kind of company car do you get?

    Suppose it that sense we are very luck then, we get three schemes A Company car (taxable). All fuel covered, considered a taxable befit of x amount ( don't recall what it is though ) B Your own car, with a fuel card. Lose some money off of your car allowance for the fuel card though...

    What kind of company car do you get?

    I figured take the money and run. The S3 would have cost about £900 month all in what with £540 monthly rental, fuel tax and CO2 tax ( is that how it works ? ) So I get the pleasure of paying £32400 over 3 years and then have to give it back and have nothing to show for it. I suppose if you do...

    Does a hit get recorded leaving a page open???

    Most proxy apps will have reporting built into them. ISA server does a daily and weekly reports by default IIRC. It records figures on protocols used, top users by requests and both data in and out, most popular web sites and traffic volume amongst other stuff. If people are at all interested...

    Imported S3 Suspension

    I looked into this a little before I bought my RSTT wheels because of the rumoured differences between S3's supplied with and those with standard Avus. I spoke to Trevor at Aston Green in Slough about this. He confirmed that they had had a bulletin about older TT's that wouldn't be covered by...

    Tyres?

    Have to agree with you there Hopsta. Mind you I think that should be a given every time someone does any work with your tyres, they have no idea what pressure to put in. I mean my RSTT's put on a TT need 30 psi IIRC, whereas on mine they recommened pressure is 36 psi !

    FYI: Audi Approved Oils for the S3

    Cheers for that list Duncan, it really helped when I had to go and deal with Aston Green when I needed some. Both Reading and Slough told me they no longer sell the Castrol Formula SLX any longer, in fact Reading tried to palm me off with the SLX II Got it from Whites in Camberley in the end...
