    8.5Y RS3

    fair point, depends on the service plan. Mine is 2 services / 24 months so yearly service is better for me. After that I’ll likely go with good VAG independent.

    Engine coolant suddenly low

    Read that on a US sight but then said it was sealed for life after first change? Not seen anything in writing from Audi on this.

    ASR Controller for facelift

    Does this controller shut the flaps when necessary ? Thought i read somewhere that under certain conditions it was detrimental if not and some controllers didn’t. Or did I get that wrong way around ?

    Niggly issues thread

    Same issue in my RS3 for 3-4 months now. Tried hard resets, disconnecting and reconnecting etc. Had it into Audi and no luck. Only way to use CarPlay is to connect phone via charging cable. Annoying!!

    Have they improved the build quality of the facelifts?

    As with most manufacturers, I think it’s luck of the draw. My 2024 RS3 is rock solid with no rattles or squeaks at all. FL model is pure cosmetic improvements, very much doubt they made any changes other than maybe add extra foam to address creaks and rattles officially logged through dealer...

    Tyres...

    Are people getting confused with Trifeo R tyres that are road legal track tyres? The new PZeroR tyres as well as Bridgestone Potenza Race have been tested by Sutcliffe and are better in wet weather than the UHP tyres. Game has moved on. Seems the drawbacks for these tyres is likely only...

    Tyres...

    Luckily I never have to travel in snowy conditions. However, I have found the Bridgestones to be epic in wet and very wet conditions so no complaints. Likely will try the pzero R’s come replacement time though. MP4S’s have a very soft tyre wall which I don’t personally like. Maybe that’s why...

    Tyres...

    Potenza Sports are only 5.6mm from new so he has a good few miles left in these really. Unless the swap is because he prefers different tyres. Had Pirelli’s on my G80 x-drive and find the Bridgestones better in all areas.

    What colour bud. Should sound ok. They look good. You gone for the standard or upgraded alloys. Like both. Standards look very similar to ones on my RS.

    Congrats Rich, hope you like it. Does the new Golf R 8.5 use the torque splitter or the haldex system? Spec? how long you have to wait ?
