    No update available that I could find so looks up to date, plus reinstalled so should default to latest version.

    Bluetooth player issue

    Hello, S3 15 plate, been working fine (well decent enough for me) for 2 years since I bought it. However for some reason I've lost the ability to control songs via Bluetooth on Spotify, just getting the external audio player connected message and all I can change is volume and on/off. Not sure...

    Hesitation!!!!

    I've always found on my pfl that engine braking is very strong on these engines and gearboxes. However mine rarely wants to drop to 1st unless almost stopping. Unfortunately I have no idea why you suddenly have the symptoms you have however

    Another 'springs' thread - Sportback 18s no magride

    Cheers, got a multi storey car park at work that could be a issue as the exit down the ramp has a speed bump just as it meets the flat floor. Stupid placement for a speed bump. Will have to see how far I'm off scraping it currently with front bumper.

    Another 'springs' thread - Sportback 18s no magride

    Only worry I have with sport lines is I have a few big speedbumps that I can't avoid going over. Do you know your front clearance by any chance or fancy measuring it. Standard is 160mm on a s3 I believe so must be around 130/140mm at a guess.

    Another 'springs' thread - Sportback 18s no magride

    What did you go for in the end? I got a sportsback s3 and decided on eibach as heard too many bad stories of the racingline springs and h&r. However can't decide between sport lines and pro kit for me.

    Wind noise from drivers window

    With my wind deflectors it's very prominent, can't recall having it on day I picked up mine and deflectors were put on soon after so not tested it without for long. Taking mine off to see if issue dissappears as it sounds like the window isn't shut fully.
