I will have a look thanks for info

I have an s3 .it has a forge dump valve , intercooler and a badger five 80 mm induction kit. The hose that has blown is a short elbow from the top of the turbo on to a stainless pipe of the intercooler.It has fire blanket between hose and the engine block. Is thre a heavier duty hose out there...

Has anyone had this problem,i burst a hose coming off the top of the turbo onto the intercooler,replaced it and three weeks later it has burst again exactly the same place. I am using hoses from auto silicone hoses. Anyone have any ideas thanks

OK mate thanks for advice off to my English class now !!!

I forgot to add the power windows are slow the window wipers struggle big time could this all be connected ie some sort of electrical fault?

Alright mate I am having almost the same problem as you.before I bought the car it had a revo remap stage one also intercooler dump valve badger 5 80mm induction .the owner took it in cause it started to run lumpy.It was plugged in and it picked up that the mag readings where real low and a...

I put my car into get the stage two software update and they put it on the computer and it's saying that the air mass filter(think that's what it's called)is giving massively low readings and also that the engine has a knock not crankshaft thank God bit the guy remind the timing is out he said...

Alright mate thanks for the reply I think the guy made a typo it's a 2000 b5 bi turbo.what do you think of the bi turbos against the v8.i have a s3 not had it long but it has had all the easy bolt on bits done and without spending 6-8k I can't get what I want out of it so I figured a change is...

Nice one mate I never new about that .I didn't think it would have been a 2004 model.one of the reasons I want it is he gonna give me 3k on my s3 which is pretty much top dollar .I bought my s3 three months ago but didn't know enough to know that I couldn't do much more to it without it costing...

I have my eye on a s4 b5 metallic black reg S4DTP 2004 it's on eBay for £4995.i know it's a long shot but does anyone know the car? probably not.if so can any tell me what I should be looking out for.my big worry is the turbos what do I look for or listen for.do you ever get condensation on the...

Cheers mate I will give that a go.funny only been on this forum for a wee while and I feel like I am cheating on it speaking about a s4 !

Had a look at your thread mate ENVY! Your Motor is the business.how long has it taken you?my problem is I have no patience and my 19year old has even less.want to go faster now! Just started getting in to fast cars used to be into big cruisers but once I got a blast of my s3 I was smitten.first...

He doesn't mention receipts in his add.i only spoke to him very briefly he was away to jump on a plane to Dubai he is a back on the 20th so I guess I will have to have a proper speak with him find out exactly whats what.i hate buying cars just wish people would be straight up.i ain't rich far...

Thanks for that means the guy that is selling it ain't got a clue what he is on about .he has on the add that the haldex service and the gearbox have been done at a cost of 1k.he probably is the same as me I would have presumed that the four wheel drive systems would be the same when I spoke to...

It says it does.it is a Quattro and I presume that it is the same as any audi .I haven't much knowledge about the ins and outs of them.it looks like a lovely motor .I was surprised it was a 2004 b5 shape I had an Audi 2.0l 2003 and that was a b6 guess they made the s4 for another year or two
