Hi, I'm new here and needing some advise on purchasing a used 2006: AUDI A3 SPORTBACK SPECIAL EDITIONS 2.0 T FSI S LINE SPECIAL EDITION 5DR DSG AUTOMATIC The car has full service history with 132k on the clock. The dealer is willing to let it go for 2.7k. Would the mileage be a concern?

Hi all, I am forced to sell my awesome A3 3.2 due to personal circumstances (family of course). I have posted the car in the classifieds section. The car runs fine, I did get the front grille changed to honeycomb and also fitted a new original Audi catalytic converter with lamber sensors...

2xcite also sell the honeycombe with chrome strip. check their site out. i managed to grab their last one but im sure theyre bringing more in. http://www.2xcite.co.uk/grills-audi-2005-2008-chrome-black-honeycomb-debadged-sports-p-272.html?osCsid=cf56a41c6a923cc033ea4f9274c59f9a

I got mine from 2xcite (first link above). to get gloss look, you'll need to paint it. Here's how it looks on my 2005 s line:

looking good! im looking to change my fog grille's as well, might look in to this! also, did you fit those headlights or they came as standard?

1. replaced blown catalytic converter 2. rear bump stops replaced 3. dsg/haldex oil and filter change 4. full service :)

Well after getting the car mechanically sound, i thought i'll start my modding phase :D got a few things lined up for the upcoming months but here's my first mod... replaced front grille with aftermarket honeycomb

The front grill now on sale at FK.. 56% off the price! Tuning FK Automotive | ABS Sport Grill for Audi A3 (Typ 8P) Yr. 05-08 | purchase online Just ordered one now :D

had mine fitted yesterday at nirro garages in essex. cost 90 quid, which included gasket part for sealing the downpipe. amd essex quoted me between 72 and 103 quid.

good news! just got an as new catalytic converter fitted to my car at nirro. total cost including part came to 290. car running very smooth now and vagcom has returned no faults. looks like the blown flexi was causing the series of faults that occured before.

yes dual cats and thanks for prompt reply

anyone know if the catalytic converter from a 2004 a3 3.2 3 door will be compatible with my 2005 3.2 5 door??

the car runs near perfect... just need to replace the exhaust to fix the leak on the flex section. engine sound is normal.. no rattles etc. the garage have assumed its a stretched chain because they seen the same fault on other cars and apparently it went away when they replaced the chain.

They mentiond as mine is dsg, apparently labour should not be as intensive as doing a manual model

Amd quoted me 1200 for parts and labour to fix this but again i am not sure if the chain is the problem. Are there any obvious visual/sound signs for this problem?

engine light has now come on!. i find it strange for it to happen after service. first time i seen the engine light since purchase. car was purchased recently so not sure if chain was replaced. my brother will be taking the car to his mates garage tomorrow so will see what that returns. he...

good point! will look around for a new system, any good brands out there?

yes 3.2

Hi all, I just got my car serviced at AMD Essex, I have to mention, they provided fantastic customer service! Anyhows... 1 fault code was found during the service: 17748: Camshaft position sensor (g40) / engine speed sensor (g28) p1340 - 001 - incor. correlation readiness: 0110 1101 No...

im at amd essex atm getting service done. they have identified the problem. the issue is to do with the downpipe flexi and cats, there is a leak so that needs replacing. i have been quoted 1200 for parts and labour. anyone have any idea where i can get the downpipe flexi and cats part...
