Hi there, just bought an Allroad with an auto gearbox issue, the code in the service book and label in the boot says FCE EYJ, cant seem to find any FCE coded gearboxes, anyone know if any EYJ coded gearboxes would be compatible? cheers

looking for advice and potential solutions to this. I shall give the back story too. Bought the car off a mate (B5 RS4) and there wasn't an issue with any front end vibrations. The front brakes needed a refurb as the bells were corroded (its got a 370mm movit kit on the car) So I have had the...

done a quick search online and GSF sell them but they dont have in stock, any ideas? Or any suggestions for any other good makes of them, these are being used on my 4wd mk2 golf build and they will need machining down a little to accept an ABS ring so if I'm going to the expense of new outer...

hello there, i drove a mates car back for him tonight and experienced something weird, I'm not used to autos of any kind really let alone DSG, I've had a few autos so what happened i dont think is normal, anyway - driving along with it in (i think its called) tiptronic mode ) shift over to the...

Are the relentless ones that are around £200 worth the money, are they a decent upgrade or prone to cracking. Only asking as I'm breaking an S3 and was planning to sell the KO4 kit complete but the standard manifold i have is cracked (and the gasket was in 3 pieces - so that might of explained...

as title, or are they plug and play between different A3's. thanks

I've done a vcdd log session to record requested and actual boost pressure, i assume the numbers are supposed to be fairly close across the rev range, i did it with 2nd gear wide open throttle (where I'm testing it i can't really get all of third) some of the figures are within 200mbar of each...

ive noticed under full acceleration there is a noise i can describe as a rush of air escaping, no idea if its been like it for a while as I've not had the car on the road that long. I thought i had this issue on my wives saab 93 tdi, sounded just like a boost leak - turned out to be a...

So after changing the clutch i go to turn on the radio today and SAFE comes up, i assumed if it was the original stereo for the car the ecu takes over and unlocks it - maybe its not the same one it came from the factory. Looked in the book pack and the little credit card code thingy has been...

going to be changing the gearbox soon, along with a new clutch and DMF, so what gearbox oil should i be looking to put in, want to get it all together to minimise the time on the ramp. cheers

From what i have read some hold boost a little longer, some help to offer smoother power delivery, non of which i know if its true, but as there are some clued up people on here i thought id ask. My car is an S3 AMK code, N249 removed (well still plugged in) milltek exhaust and decat, currently...

so i just bought myself another S3, this one was bought cheap so i expected a few issues, most are easy and obvious the main one I'm worried about might not be. The seller called me today (before i was going to collect it) to say he thinks a wheel bearing has gone, no problem ill come with a...

Im building a 4wd (haldex) mk2 golf, it to begin with will have a BAM engine, due to the haldex conversion there won't be room for the standard fuel tank, so I'm having a fuel cell built that will accept the standard A3/Mk4 fuel pump, so a couple of questions. 1. is the main fuel pump (drivers...

its going into a mk2 golf, i have a 1.8t engine with forged rods. Ill be using an AGU Head too. What i know is the std ko4 turbo off an S3 etc won't get me past 285 isn, but I've been told a ko4 off a tfsi engine will. So will i need bigger injectors than the 440cc std ones - like genesis...

hi there, when the s3 engine /box goes in the lotus ill need to remove the transfer box, i know theres someone out there that supplies them but for the life of me i cannot remember who it is anybody know? cheers in advance

before i start weight saving my S3 my car has a sunroof, i didnt buy it with the intention of stripping it out but if im going that route i need to delete the sunroof. i know of a company thats done it to a mates porsche - no idea on the cost. id rather not just pop rivet a metal skin over...

Megan Racing Rear Camber Kit 04 Volkswagen Golf R32 Audi TT 00-06 | eBay Even paying the post and the import duty (if stung for it) they seem pretty good value, has anyone heard anything about these or the brand from other cars, they suggest they do things for BMW.

So ive decided to keep the S3 for a while, it needs a new turbo as the one on there is too big and doesnt give decent power until 5000 revs + The car has the following mods Genesis 550cc injectors Forge FMIC T3 turbo fitment manifold with external wastegate Scat H section forged rods Full...

are they a direct swap for the early type headlights/indicators on a 2000 yr S3? if so does anyone have some they are selling

does anyone know the weight of an 8L S3 in full trim (non sunroof) im looking to build a stripped out one as a fast road/track car, and im curious as to the starting weight, i think they are about 1500kg, so a touch lighter than a mk4 r32, autotrader info seems to suggest over 1900kg which is...
