Hi, Does anyone know the part number for either a complete ready built driveshaft or just the inners? Going to ring the local TPS tomorrow for a price. Drivers side has alot of play, passenger side not so much.... but I guess its worth changing both at the same time. That, coupled with the...

Hopefully a simple question. But the mount that goes into the side of the engine (cam belt goes around it) - is this the same bracket as the 2.0 tfsi engine? I only ask because im after buying one and its the only one i can find on ebay and it 'looks' the same: GENUINE AUDI S3 2.0 QUATTRO...

I recently did my head gasket as it had gone - i checked both the block and the head for warping with an engineers rule and a torch.... yes a bit basic, but i was on my driveway between christmas and new year doing the job! Now im loosing coolant again. And I suspect the head may be cracked -...

First off, i know the S3 doesn't need parking sensors - but trust me, the wife does! Shes told me that reverse gives a long beep to (indicate an error i guess) and doesnt beep for objects. I told her to leave ignition on and put in reverse and listen to each sensor if they click. All apparently...

Today I had my first proper drive in an S3........ and ive owned the car months. I bought the car off another member.... who since hasnt been back on here funny enough..... and all seemed fine. No running issues, no abnormal smoke, impressive service record etc. Then, 3 weeks into...

I was driving the car without the radio on this morning - couldnt be bothered going back into the house for the face Anyway, all i could hear was what sounded like a vent constantly opening and closing coming from the passenger footwell. Even turning the heaters off didnt stop the noise...

If this is knackered can it cause white smoke from exhaust? I thought my head gasket had gone but ive got no mayo on...

Ive looked for a thread on part numbers for the S3 and couldnt find any. Im after finding out if the ESP sensors are the same on both the A3 and S3 The YAW sensor on mine is faulty. Its causing no issues because the ESP has been turned off via vagcom by previous owner (ive found that out...

Well seeing as im new, and have a few plans for the car, figured id start a little project thread of my own! Only had the car a week, but ive already started. Today I gave the car a clean using a clay bar, and then shoved some extra gloss protection on top......g Oh yea, and had the windows...

I did a search but didnt find anything, so sorry if this has been posted before.... Ive contacted Sam via facebook in regards to getting a v3 relentless downpipe and sports cat, But im thinking maybe getting a manifold at the same time. Saves messing about behind the engine twice if i discover...
