    S3 v S4 mpg

    If it’s not much of a difference I won’t mind, it’s just hard to gauge it without having the car haha

    S3 v S4 mpg

    Hi, I currently have an S3 8v DSG pfl. I’m looking at potentially getting a B9 S4 petrol. I was wondering if the S4 is gonna be much worse on fuel than the S3? I currently get between 23-25mpg on my daily commute which is about 3 miles roughly. Thanks!

    S3 8v DSG

    Ah okay. I’m glad you got it sorted mate, I’m getting my dsg serviced soon. So hopefully it’ll be the same case for me mate

    S3 8v DSG

    No idea mate, when I got it serviced. They said that there was a gearbox fault in the system. But no code, which was weird. They road tested it and it was completely fine. That was 6 months ago & it’s still completely fine. Launches okay, shifts are fine etc

    Coolant leak

    Mine was leaking for the coolant hose flange. But I’d agree with the comment below that it’s probably water pump or thermostat

    Coolant leak

    Got it sorted, it was the engine hose flange. It had perished really bad, causing loads of coolant to constantly leak. Thanks for your help!

    Coolant leak

    & also, sorry for replying in parts but the oil temp was around 103 which is fairly normal from what I’ve seen from driving in the past. I don’t know how to see coolant temps on the S3 tho as the boost gauge is there

    Coolant leak

    Hi, vague question. It looks like I have a coolant leak on the back of the engine of my 2014 S3. Would that be caused by a cracked hose?
