    Horn not working, audi warranty

    good point re SOGA! Totally forgot about that, it's 6 months having just checked. (which for me will be end of December) I'll contact the non audi dealer, only two months ago they paid for a new stronic clutch, so hopefully this small issue of the horn not working will easy to resolve also.

    My Audi S3 Sprint Blue 2010

    that car is absolutely stunning, looks brand new even though it's a 10plate. Would love to have that if it weren't for choosing a 1.4 for best MPG with a family now etc to save costs. I'd have a tracker and whatever alarm approved by Fort Knox for that beauty.

    Just been having a search, and seems to be a real bargain. Aren't these usually upwards of £90-100 each? http://www.tyreleader.co.uk/car-tyres/goodyear/eagle-f1-asymmetric-2/225-45-r17-91y-220436 Also this may seem really simple, on Camskill they have tyres listed as "OE AUDI" and ones without...

    Paint Spots
