    Coolant bypass valve circuit open

    No, I don't have any coolant loss. I have just removed, cleaned and re-seated the connector, I'll see if the fault reappears... Fingers crossed they just disturbed the connector when they did the gearbox oil recently...

    Coolant bypass valve circuit open

    I've got a "Coolant bypass valve circuit open" Fault on my S3 and reading through here it looks like it could just be some water in the electrical plug connection. Does anyone have a diagram of the engine or a photo which shows where the coolant bypass valve is on the engine and how to get to...

    2013 S3 - Retrofit Android Auto?

    I figured that might be the case, but worth an ask in case someone knows something different... It works great on our Skoda vRS Seems a shame to have to change the whole car just to get a software update!

    Does anyone know if it is possible to retrofit Android Auto to a 2013 S3? Either by dealer upgrade or 3rd party? Thanks Simon

    S3 S-Tronic (Too Harsh in Sport and Too Soft in Dynamic)

    Actually I'm quite pleased to hear that someone else is having problems with the S-Tronic and it's not just me!... My car is at about 1500 miles and the choice of gear by the gearbox is rubbish. It either changes up too early or too late and very rarely seems to be in the gear I want it to be...

    Feedback from those with S3s now

    No, sorry, no reversing camera here, just basic rear parking sensors. However there is no visual display of the sensors and no way to enable it in the MMI. I see from the VCDS pages that is it available on the car. Even our Skoda shows a display of the distance to an object when reversing.

    Thanks, I realise you can close it but it would be nice for it to remember if you closed it and not open it again the next time you started the car instead of making you close it every time.

    I wonder why I couldn't get it to show it? Back button - the one with "back" written on it... Nav button 1 - The lefthand top silver raised "lever" pressed forwards?? Was the car running ? Thanks Simon

    Feedback from those with S3s now

    I'm not going to bother with the best features, everyone else seems to have covered those very well... I don't like start/stop... If you are in the habit of sitting at a junction with your foot on the break waiting for a gap in the traffic, it turns the ****** engine off! Also when going to...

    Access MMI engineering menu -------------------- The engineering menu can be accessed with the following combination: Back button + Navigation button 1 (top left). I couldn't get this to work on my S3... Anybody else tried it?

    2013 Audi S3

    I'd have asked them for the full set of AMI cables, not just the ones they "thought" I might want. I'd also have asked them to switch on the visual display of the reverse parking sensors & the acoustic lock menu. They are refusing to do it now!

    I've not managed to take any yet... it will look the same as most of the others with the only exception, I don't have the roof rails.

    S3 Register

    Yeah, feels great. Not driven her much yet and am still getting to grips with the drive select but don't want to push it too hard until it has bedded in a bit. It's my first Stronic so am still reaching for the gearstick at times!
