Hey Imola S3, thanks for bringing that piece of information to my attention. Apparently there really is an issue with the pitch, however it is not an issue with all cars. I have to follow that one up so don't take my numbers too seriously

Well, with an accelerometer (G-Tech Pro) I've reached 13.89 and 164 km/h. Mods are Revo with SPS3 (HB9 T6). According to the manufacturer the accelerometer is very accurate... (on the same run 0-100 km/h was 5.9 sec) This was during winter so the temperature was very favourable but on the other...

Yeah, been there, done that, got the t-shirt, etc... It works, some of the codes just aren't exactly where they should be e.g. 50 Standing time could be number 51, at least on my car. Or then I have a slightly differen list. You can return back to normal whenever you want. And yes, the...

Yessir, had a similar problem on my S3. Mine occured only when the temperature was below -5 degrees Celcius. I managed to get it to disappear by restarting once. A couple of times it disappeared by itself within a couple of minutes. Had it in for service and mentioned about the problem. My...

I have a similar problem and the local dealer found out that it is the track-rod ends, inner ones. Mine has 75k km on it (around 50k miles).

Gambba: Actually I know and agree with you, just couldn't resist the small flame . I actually did get wheelspin on dry tarmac with my summer set of tires, although what I left out is that those tires are, no were, really sh*tty regarding grip. I have actually better traction on dry tarmac with...

Gambba, if I floor it and drop the clutch I just might as well order new tires as well. A chipped S3 just puts out so much torque that even four wheel drive can't cope with it resulting in a massive wheel spin. Okay, this looks quite stunning but is not really the fastest launch

I guess this doesn't strictly belong here, but a good laugh should always get space... http://www.carsurvey.org/review_49198.html Especially those "rs turdo's" beware...

MarkS3, if you would opt for the Revo, remember that the above mentioned is for the trial, the "real" software is somewhat different. If you leave the ethics (everyone is innoncent until proven guilty and blabla so on) aside, I believe that any of the more known tuners are a good option. Do a...

I am not a robot, I am a free man! I don't feel disrespected, but I really stumbled across this one. I admit I only checked the A3/S3 forum wheter this link / post had been already here so my apologize for that one. And at least in Finland the Revo dealer does NOT say that the trial disappears...

Found this one on the Revotechnik forum, they comment on the issues with Revo trial not reverting to stock and also explains some issues. Anyway for Revo interested people a nice read I believe. Hopefully it's not old news...

Well, mine is a 210 hp Revo-tuned. It should give some 255-265 hp with this. According to Revo the pressure is with my configuration 1.35 bar relative (19.5 psi). With the Revo SPS3 you'll be able to get some 1.5 bar (21.75 psi) and with that one could imagine something like 270 hp. This power...

Is that the 225 hp version? That one should have 1.1 bar relative pressure (about 16 psi). Does anyone know what the 210 hp version has? My local dealer said 0.7-1.0 bar (about 10-14.5 psi), which is really not that exact.

On my car you need to wind the window(s) up and hold the switch in the up position after the window is fully closed for a couple of seconds for the auto function to activate.

Cheers, Thanks Lewy, helped me a bit as well!

Hi, There is a company in Sweden, BSR, that provides OBD tuning as well, called PPC. Unfortunately they have just started with PPC so VAG cars are down to one or two models so far. They have announced however that more models will follow shortly. Here up north BSR have been around for years and...

JayBeeS3: Terve, I usually cruise along the beautiful bulevards of Helsinki... Gambba: Thanks, I'll check it out. Hmm, even at erwin I don't find manuals regarding the S3. Is it just me or..? Or does the A3 manuals cover the S3 as well, any knowledge?

Hi everyone! Quite a newbie from Finland here... I've been reading posts with great interest and help as well for a while. Now for my hopefully easy question, tried to make a search but didn't find anything... Is there, anywhere, a service manual (preferrably with VAG COM codes) available...
