    Powerflex PFF85-430 vs 1J0 412 331C (Top mounts)

    I would be interested to know and also what the powerflex ones are if anyone has a set. The arch looks more on the front, the rear nearside also just had a spring replaced.

    Powerflex PFF85-430 vs 1J0 412 331C (Top mounts)

    Just appears high to me, if anyone has dimensions of the powerflex bush I would be interested what they are ? The OEM ones I removed are 48mm in height and appreciate they will have compressed.

    Powerflex PFF85-430 vs 1J0 412 331C (Top mounts)

    Yeah I'm aware of that but I have 30mm lowering springs fitted, I didn't want to go any lower.

    Powerflex PFF85-430 vs 1J0 412 331C (Top mounts)

    Recently had powerflex top mounts installed and the car sits noticeably higher, I accept they probably need to bed in but will I see 5-10mm drop. I don't understand what has gone wrong here. Thanks Matt

    Secondary water pump

    I had or did have G13 in and no issues there, am I OK with G13 spec or does it have to be VAG. I have seen G13 evo popping up in my search, any thoughts ?

    Secondary water pump

    The last year with S3 has been a royal pain ! Yesterday coolant dripping out everywhere, looked it over today and spotted the in or outlet to the secondary pump had snapped off. So part number 0392020039, I've bypassed the pump and topped up the system temporarily. My mechanic will sort later...

    Loose headlamp S3 8L

    Just sorted this problem and the headlight had been over adjusted. Taken it off and you will see the shafts the inner unit sits on, you might have to wind out to get it on properly and then will need to get your headlights realigned. One thing I do know is these headlights are absolute junk.
