Nice one pal, I'll just take the tyres that are on the car now then, they're in good nick an 225/40/18.

Hi guys, mate of mine has these available and just want confirmation they'll fit on my 3.2 8P A3 (on 18' S-line now) before we mess about. 8Jx18H2 ET43 5x112 I'm clueless when it comes to offsets, hence the question. Cheers

Thanks for the reassurance pal, glad it's done the buisness for you. I've seen in the main thread about this about audi asking for the reg of the vehicle that's been done (yours) so they can see what procedure was carried out, makes it easier to convince them it's something they can do. Would...

Many thanks, off to do battle with Audi then. Failing that I've seen a place called VAGManchester who reckon they've all the official equipment etc for such jobs so hopefully one or the other. Thanks all.

Anyone? -ju-?

Hi lads, right, had my ECU scanned this morn an this is what I've got... 022906032CA MOTRONIC ME7.1.1 5629 Coding: 0000172 WSC: 006435 ECU TYPE: PETROL_CODES_ONLY This mean anything to anyone? I've looked at the info on page 16 and that confirms the ECU number is compatible but past that...

I'm in blackburn but thanks for the offer pal, im sure there's someone local who I can get to plug it in for the sake of getting a serial number. Haven't been face to face no, as I've been trying to sort it out while at work, will head to blackburn audi on sat.

Thanks pal. Struggling to get the issue adressed by Audi now the majority have cases have died down though...

After being in touch with audi uk they say there is nothing they can do and that they trust the judgment of their "fully trained technicians, with the latest equipment" Looks like I'm going to get guinnie pigged into replacing this that an the other to no avail like some of you chaps did a fee...

Many thanks pal, I read a few pages back that this was a dealer only fix? If yours is fixed though, who am I to question. I will definatly start asking around, what is it they would need, just the update cd? Seems a bit specific for an indie garage...

Holy thread revival batman! Sorry to bring this back from the dead again. I've read many many of these pages, and as a new owner as of yesterday, I admire the persistence and outlay of some of you guys! Long story short mines jerky on set off, feels like a surging/hesitation trying to hold 30...

So the software issue affects the manual as well? I thought it wss dsg software at fault, therefore not affecting mine, however I'm new to these.

Hi all, finally after going Surrey to Glasgow an every where in between, I finally found a 3.2 worth buying. I've noticed though driving it today, I've been looking out for the dsg box not holding 2k revs and hinting and it being related to a software update. However mines manual and doing it...

Hi im looking to buy a v6 a3 but as im phoning dealers and private sellers, theres not many saying theres any history of a dsg or haldex service. If a car has had full service history at audi, would it have been done alongside a regular service, or would it be stamped seperatly? How much do...
