Had this replaced on my S3 recently and the pump is located on the right of the engine block if standing at the front of the car looking at the engine. The unit itself was about £300 but can't remember what the fitting was as it was done with a load of other stuff.
This is exactly what I do but not sure I want to pay for the dealer service any more when I can do a better job for less.
I'm going to do it myself [emoji106]
My S3 8P is 10 years old now and although it's got a full service history I have to question the value of getting Audi to perform what amounts to little more than an oil change and visual inspection. I'm very happy to service the car myself and can do a more complete job for less money, putting...
I think it's the Spec Stage 2+ http://www.specclutch.com/products the only thing I'm not sure about is if this one uses the DMF or SMF, I'm sure someone else will chime in and confirm either way. I suspect it's more expensive than the Sachs and I could have just been incredibly unlucky, @S3Alex...
Consider all your options carefully, Sachs has been a very expensive exercise for me and the first one failed after 8,000 miles (not abused in any way). Sachs have done everything to avoid any sort of reimbursement with a string of conflicting responses about the state of the clutch from 'we can...
The lager of the fans is for the aircon, I've just swapped mine out and got both fans in the assembly from ECP http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Audi_S3_2.0_2007/p/car-parts/cooling/car-cooling-parts-and-car-heating/car-fans/?213440290&1&31ae2e590dcc1db484dc2d51cec84a150ae85d1f&000128. Took...
Quick update rather than leaving an unanswered question, I've now replace the fan assembly (http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Audi_S3_2.0_2007/p/car-parts/cooling/car-cooling-parts-and-car-heating/car-fans/?213440290&1&31ae2e590dcc1db484dc2d51cec84a150ae85d1f&000128) and the problem has gone...
Have you considered the Spec stage 3 clutch, not got one myself but very close OEM feel and haven't heard of any failures running 2+ power through them. Uses a SMF but this could be a better investment, @S3Alex runs this with loads more power going through it.
My Sachs organic failed and I don't launch or abuse the car (running R tech 2+ putting out 360/385ft lbs) still trying to work things out with Sachs but its been a very expensive exercise so far.....
