    De-tinting

    Possible? Seen a lovely S3 near me, great condition and fantastic price but it's got tints, which to be honest aren't really my cup of tea. So can you remove them easily/cheaply? Cheers, Adam

    Wheel spacers

    Spacers make the car look great IMO !! I ran 10mm fronts and 16mm rears on my S3 and it just made the whole car look 'fatter' Biggest pain was cutting down all the bolts to fit as sourcing decent quality bolts in the right length seemed impossible at the time. ...got mine from Forge - not...

    Help! Symphony II Headunit Double Din Size

    [ QUOTE ] No I think you have to replace the whole centre console fascia, or swap it out with someone who's looking to do the reverse. The OTS fascia adapters are purely to fill in the side bits of the single DIN unit (which has an oversized fascia) when going aftermarket. [/ QUOTE ] ^^^^...

    Minimum oil level - DIS

    Same opinion here...dont wait for the light. Met up with a fellow S3 owner on here a while back, there was no oil showing on the stick at all and the ****** light still hadn't come on!!! Personally my S3 barely uses a drop, maybe 1/2 a litre in 10k miles. Some do, some dont - weird. Adam
