    Macclesfield Audi [emoji1304]

    When I bought my S3 from Audi in Macclesfield in 2014, they were excellent. Stayed with them for a number of years. By the time I wanted to order my RS3, they had gone downhill for many of the reasons discussed in this thread. Even sales seemed disinterested and never got back to me as promised...

    RS3 8Y General Discussion Thread.

    My rear washer on my old 8v S3 used to regularly clog up. Used to have to remove the cap over the nut and clean the little impeller that’s inside to sort it. Maybe worth looking at.

    Spotted one tonight.

    Nice Kyalami Green SB Vorsprung parked in well known Cheshire Spa hotel towards the end of last week. Not sure he would have saw mine as it was in a different car park. Would have liked to have bumped into the owner for a chat.

    RS3 Stop/Start Not Working

    It will be because the voltage has dropped below the minimum threshold for it to operate. This will always happen to a car not used very much. I would recommend a trickle charger to stop the battery inevitably deteriorating to a point where replacement is the only option.

    Car insurance up !!

    More than doubled for me….over £1k this year. Audi Insurance coming in at £703. What’s the catch?

    Macclesfield Audi [emoji1304]

    If they had been the Audi Macclesfield of 9 years ago, I would have ordered my RS3 there and be using them for all my servicing. Won’t go near them now. Really seem to have let things slip.

    Macclesfield Audi [emoji1304]

    My last Audi (my S3) came from Macclesfield from new in 2014. At that time they were excellent and I always went back to the same dealership for all work until I parted with the car last year. Post pandemic I also noticed things going downhill and a lot of unnecessary waiting around for while...

    Safety recall 97HO

    Had mine done this morning. Successfully eliminated any of the car wash squad with their Brillo pads with strict instructions and signs all over the car and they took it straight in. Only there 5mins……all good. Guy said they haven’t seen one wrong as yet. Tick in the box from them and another...

    Internal Alarm Warning

    This morning at 06:42 my Apple Watch buzzed on my wrist with a warning from the Audi App that the Internal Alarm for my RS3 had been activated. Checked car which was safely locked up in my garage. Opened and re-locked but still had to ‘Reset Alarm’ in the app. No idea whether the alarm had...

    Lane Assist started working after 2 months?

    Mine comes on every time I start the car. Have to hold the button every time to switch it off as I hate it. Bit confused how it wasn’t working for 2 months.

    Spotted one tonight.

    I’ll be vague about the location, but was walking my dogs (somewhere in East Cheshire) and there was an identical Merlin Purple Saloon (bar Ceramics) waiting to pull out of a petrol station. Took a double take as thought it was mine!! Had to wave at the passenger window and say hi. Still shocked...

    Safety recall 97HO

    Ok, thanks. So let me rephrase the question…….has anyone found it not to be locked down? Not had a chance to look at mine yet as it’s in the garage and I need to get it out to access.

    Safety recall 97HO

    Had the recall notice, despite Warrington Audi check saying no recalls. Can’t get it into Crewe Audi until early November for a while I wait booking. Also had to fight my way through their complimentary wash offer……..those signs will be plastered all over the car again! Does anyone on here know...

    Safety recall 97HO

    I don’t understand why dealerships can’t understand why customers do not want a car wash. Drives me insane, along with a bit of anxiety, despite the numerous notices I put all over the car. Hate it.

    Safety recall 97HO

    Apparently the recall is for models manufactured between 2019 and 2023. Not had anything for mine yet……checked on here and it says no recalls found, so perhaps not everyone - https://www.audiwarrington.com/check-vehicle-for-recalls.htm

    RS3 8Y General Discussion Thread.

    Not really but it happens now and again. I am of an age where I know I have nothing to prove and it always makes me laugh to myself how ridiculous these idiots (most who can’t drive very well) look. I’ll happily drive with enthusiasm where and when it is safe and have no intention of falling the...

    ⚠️ALL S3 8V OWNERS COOLANT LEAK!!!!!!

    Cost me around £1k on my S3 in 2019 when it was 5 years old and less than £20k on the clock. Obvious design issue that Audi have never owned up to.

    Ceramic Brake Owners Is the Squeaking Normal?

    100% agree about the heavy rain effect. First time it was very disconcerting and I actually thought I had a brake problem. Something to be aware of which isn’t a major issue once you are used to them.
