Im looking at buying my first S3 and have a few questions. Ive had a bit of a search on the forum but only found minimal answers to the questions.
Talking of a lightly modified (chip, exhaust and performace air filter etc.) 2001 S3, what sort of service intervals would I be looking at? My current car requires a minor service every 3k miles and im trying to come away from such regular maintenance.
Do you guys run turbo timers or let the car cool down substantially after driving? Or can the car be shut down straight away?
At what revs is positive boost seen? At what revs is full boost seen?
Ive been reading about remaps. Does this increase boost as part of the remap, or is a seperate boost controller required to control boost levels?
Lastly, if theres anyone in the Bolton / Manchester / Wigan areas willing to show me round there S3 and possibly take me for a spin, it would be much apriciated as Ive never seen one up close nor been in one. Id return the favour in my car if interested and im sure I could buy you a pint to sweeten the deal!
