Engine code BKC will fit in with no issues at all.
It's what i did. I should of updated the thread to be honest. BKC is alot more reliable...can't find no issues online as opposed to pages and pages of faults for BXE

"Switch on Ignition, and then pull out the reset button (lower left of speedo). With the reset button out, SERVICE will appear in the display screen. Pull the button until SERVICE in ----- KM --- Days is shown on the display. If...
I just hope whoever decided to swap these conrods out for inferior ones has got the sack...Probably not though, probably got a bonus for finding ways to save money
My 57 Plate A3 BXE engine decided to commit suicide on the M4 last month. She was only 96K. Although i had the car remapped, i don't believe this would of caused it. As far as servicing goes; Full service history with weekly inspections (the car is my pride and joy).

You lucky man! I got the most recent sline rear bumper and diffuser, will have to get my exhaust done as the newer bumper is alot bigger than the sport so you can't see exhaust anymore lol. Would love to get the front bumper sourced though, it will complete the conversion then.

New wheels look much better! Well done on finding a sline front bumper too...i can't find a complete one for love or money.
My A3 8P 1.9tdi had a conrod through the block on Thursday (96k milea)...my engine code was BXE, apparently it's very common for the conrod to go through a BXE. Just...
Hi Guys,
Tried doing a search for a similar thread but had no luck.

So basically, does anyone know if an A3 1.9TDI 105BHP 2007 (57) has a...
Bought the kit from Venom on eBay. Here's a link to the ad:
JOM Height Adjustable Coilovers - Audi A3 8P Chassis - Fits All Engine sizes | eBay
It is meant to fit both the 50mm and 55mm models as it comes with a blue sleeve that makes it up to 55mm but as stated, 2 mechanics have said it wont...

This Wedging Cam sounds like a good lead though. Got any links to the tool?
Hi all,
