Haldex control unit I had this a few months back same symptoms all sorted under warranty Ubbs

Snap on steering wheels we're okay I had one on my series 1 rs turbo, so did a friend on his sapphire cosworth, after they found his crashed and burned out with a pair of mole grips on the steering column i didn't bother taking mine off, if they want it there gonna take it!

I had a rattle which sounded like it was coming from the front but was actually coming from the o/s/r passenger floor well, the fuel line at idle was tapping against the body went away when you revved it, popped a bit of self adhesive foam in between not heard it since. Ubbs

Yes the skoda was mental can't imagine what the handling would be like with that kind of power! So you think the figures that I got would be pretty accurate? Ubbs

V power for the last 2 years. Managed to work out how you attach photos again!

So, finally had a chance to put the car on a r/r at rs tuning in Leeds, I don't know how accurate their road is my 3 did 334 bhp and 375lb ft torque which for a standard car is quite high though I'm not complaining, any if you guys had yours on a rolling road yet? Some very tasty cars attended...

Hmm a competent rear drive hatch with the best tyres money can buy on a circuit? It's bound to feel better, as we all know the 3 responds well to better tyres mix some rain into his road/circuit test I'm sure the outcome would have been different even on contis, does everyone who owns an rs3...

Fill the bolt heads with epoxy resin?

It's sorted now got to pick it up from Wakefield audi turned out it was the haldex control unit, very scary when it stopped working no lights on the dashboard, so I'd say it's a safety issue, plenty of roundabouts on the way back to Leeds to check it!

Quick update, had an Audi tech come out today and appears to have logged a fault with the haldex pump (open close circuit) so it's booked for Monday with a courtesy car, Ubbs

That was the quickest fix ever, explained to the rac bloke what's going on he has a look underneath and under the bonnet nothing amiss so I take him up the street for a test drive and the faults gone! So it's gonna have to be booked in for further investigation but he did mention something...

So as I write this I'm waiting for audi assist! Story goes like this, sun was up early so I pulled the cover off and reversed down the drive and set off to work pulling out at the junction mass wheelspin hmmm that's not right but didn't think much of it, Finnish work at 10.30 go to the gym...

Understeer? Don't know what your all talking about! I haven't driven mine since the 11th of November apart from a quick squirt up to menston yesterday (weather decent and no salt) it hasn't seen daylight! That said plenty of understeer from the £1200 fiesta I've been using for the daily...

I nearly bought one from hull audi ibis with buckets the one tiff and mark Higgins drove on fifth gear, that said it was immaculate but there was hole in the drivers seat base, deal fell through because they wanted to repair it I wanted them to knock £450 off for the cost of the part which I...

having trouble uploading images!

Right guys my wheels are back from jp alloys and they've done a very good job, so thanks john for recommendation, need to keep away from the kerbs need to keep away from the kerbs need to keep away from the kerbs

The wheels have been dropped off at jp alloys and my what a place some very "tasty" motors parked up under cover Pete showed me some black edition roters that had just been refurbed and they looked very good, worth noting that if you intend to change wheel colour like I have you have to budget...

Yes I've heard they do a good job I'm wanting mine near as oem as possible with them being diamond cut you can only do them once, I might have a bit time on my hands next week the place where I work in Leeds caught fire and was badly damaged, thanks for the offer John I may take you up on that...

watching this one with interest earlier this year I made an enquiry at jp about having mine put back to the standard colour (mine were black and red but the supplying dealer refurbed them a dark Matt gunmetal, poorly I might add) you'll have to let us know how they come out, ubbs

Mbk here's one example, today we went to ripon to purchase a nearly new astra estate it's our 23rd wedding anniversary I promised her a new car (I use her car for the rental properties we own) there's a road that goes from pool bank all the way to the west of Harrogate it's about 8 miles long an...
