    Drivers Window still wont work

    Zombie thread, but had this problem for way too long, and just wanted to add in that this was where my issues lied. After having already replaced literally everything but the door and finding the issue to persist, I circled back to inspecting the wiring. Sure enough, once I inspected the...

    8P VCDS changes thread

    Haha - No problem! But yeah, given the switch itself doesn't provide the solution, this is why I am looking into other alternatives. I also had never seen anything for it in VCDS threads here or elsewhere, but figured it was at least worth asking since I never saw it brought up. If I can't...

    8P VCDS changes thread

    Pic as requested - I would think that it should just pull out for fogs, but it doesn't pull out when set to Auto.

    8P VCDS changes thread

    Guess I had to have my first poor interaction here sooner or later, and you get the honor of being "that guy." Maybe if I peel back the snarky overtones in your response, you are actually trying to help in a way... Anyhow, I guess I'll keep Rule 236 in mind if I ever install a duck boat mod on...

    Do you flash people?

    Not my thing either, though I have had the occasional driver do that to me as well. They are lucky if I even acknowledge it, so couldn't even begin to guess what they hope to achieve :think:

    What do you do for a job?

    Garden Landscaping - now there's a skill I wouldn't mind picking up. I've been wrestling with how to landscape my property for the last two years. Tons of research, but not confident enough to pull the trigger on much of it, so little actually gets done.

    sad news...

    Didn't realize the TCU map was so important to accompany the ECU map beyond stage 1. I'm getting everything in order for a Stage 2 map, and I guess I'll add the stage 2 TCU map in there as well. Thanks for sharing that bit of advice!

    How long you owned your daily driven A3 8p?

    Sorry for the late response - Missed the question! My 8P has the 2.0T engine.

    Audi A3 8P B Pillar repairs

    I'm thinking I'll give wrapping them a go. I I've got the same thing going on with my 8P, but I'm thinking of wrapping mine and I would like to believe that I can get away without removing them (though I have not tried yet). Just curious - had you (or anyone else) considered wrapping yours by...

    What Polisher Do You Use?

    While it's possible I missed it, I didn't notice a thread dedicated to what polisher(s) are used, so I figured I would toss one out there and see what comes of it. Plenty of threads on what pads and products are used, so let's try to focus on just the machine itself. That being said, I...

    Newbie from Essex

    Welcome! My last car was a Lexus IS250 AWD, and I followed that up with a silver Audi! :kissmyrings: Prior to joining here recently, I had last joined a Lexus forum years ago too - Seems like we are on a similar course! The car is beautiful, and I hope you find yourself enjoying it more and...

    sad news...

    Sorry to see you have lost your S3 8P, and I hope the next car brings you as much, or even more happiness. Wish I could be more helpful with the DSG questions or the car search, but for what it's worth, I have not really had any major issues with the DSG on my A3.

    8P VCDS changes thread

    Hi All! New here, and while I have tried searching, please forgive me if I what I ask has already been answered. In VCDS, is there any way to code the front fog lights to turn on when the switch is set to Auto (ie. front fog lights come on with the dipped/low beam headlights)? If not, anyone...

    Ultimate/Final 8P Oil Thread

    Definitely true - It's on my agenda to reassess since I'm throwing a few mods into the mix, which is part of what attracted me to this thread. Really appreciate all of the good info you all are sharing.

    Ultimate/Final 8P Oil Thread

    I'll keep that in mind in the event that everything for Stage 2+ somehow happens to show up in my garage one day. Funny that everything for stage 1+ happened to do just that somewhat recently, and now I'm wondering if everything for stage 2 will do the same within the next few weeks. If it...

    Ultimate/Final 8P Oil Thread

    Appreciate the feedback! Glad to see the Mobil 1 FS 0W-40 European Car Formula came in 15th out of the 250+ that were tested, but seeing a 5W30 that scored higher leaves me to wonder if I should give that one a shot for a cycle or two and see how the car likes it! I have to try to track down...

    How long you owned your daily driven A3 8p?

    I think it's around 230k miles, if I am not mistaken. Currently I average 250-ish miles on it a week, so if not too much changes, I'm still about 5.5 years away from reaching that goal. Just something to look forward to down the line. Funny how under 100k miles I want to keep a car that way...
