    Steering wheel buttons

    So 'glad' I only have a 2022 RS3 then , no seriously, I had thought about upgrading to a 2025, however don't like those stupid touch buttons. Just annoying. Anyway, don't write off an older RS3. I came from a 2011 S3 (had it from new) to the 2022 RS3 and of course it's epic. Just makes me smile...

    Entry/Exit lights and the RS3 logo

    Hi all, 2022 UK RS3, do the Entry/Exit lights and the RS3 logo always light up when unlocking the car with the keyfob? My lights are set to AUTO as well, however I've only tonight in the dark (and since I've had an alarm fitted last week), that neither the daylight running lights, nor the RS3...

    2022 TPMS screen

    Where do I see what the tyre pressures are according to the TPMS? I can where it asks me to store them but then is there a screen to see them on? Doing my head in.

    Vorsprung v Carbon edition

    I know I'm late to this thread but I'm picking one up Weds and the cheapest quote I can get (with the extras I want) is around £1,200! And that's coming from 13 years in an S3 and I'm 55 as well. So something has changed with insurance costs this half of the year. I hope I enjoy it though

    Which fuse for rear wiper and where do I find it?

    What? It's hardly good if it's wiping on it's own is it? Far better with no electric going to it.

    CEL on - no noticeable performance issues...... but....

    Hey all knowledgable folk out there. Over the last 10 months my 2011 S3 CEL came on and then went off after two days. It has done this twice. Then last week the CEL came on again, having been off for months, and this time it is staying on (not blinking). The car drives ok and I cannot feel any...

    2011 S3 - what are your tyre pressure preferences?

    Door sticker says 42psi front and 33psi rear for my use but does anyone run lower? I’ve just had some Asymmetric 6’s fitted today so as always, there isn’t a tyre fitter I’ve been to in 12 years that inflates to 42psi in the fronts. Just wondering folks……

    DSG Tuning

    I have a 2011 S3 and had it done on mine. Back then it was Shark who I took it to. I live in Nottm and the constant change up and change down's on our 30 mph roads was doing my head in. So I had the changes altered so at 30mph it stays in 5th instead of hunting between 5th and 6th all the time...

    DVD eject button lock - can a reset sort this or is it VCDS code change only?

    Update: my car was in Audi and they reckon they cannot connect to the RNSE to find out the issue. I have an OBD Portector and as far as I'm concerned, if you can get in to see the service indicator then you can get in to see the RNSE, so they are trying to tell me that the OBD Portector is the...

    Air con re-gas - I was impressed

    I’ve had my S3 for 11 yrs now from new and use it every day regardless. It stops the windows steaming up in winter anyway. I had it re-gassed years ago and must admit I’ve not had it done since. May be worth looking into it now as it must be 5 yrs or so since it was last done.

    DVD eject button lock - can a reset sort this or is it VCDS code change only?

    As per the title, can the 2011 S3 RNS-E be factory reset to unlock the DVD eject button, or is it VCDS only? I had a call back from Audi and he reckoned it could be done but I know nothing so before I start wasting my time I am asking you clever lot on here. Thanks folks :D
