Hi guys. I have a 2008 Audi S3. At around 75-85mph there is a whine from the back end. It only happens when I touch the throttle on the run down it won't do it. After 85 it goes away.
The car had a new diff under warranty by audi about 1000 miles ago. Genuine oil and never made this noise...
No problem. Mine has been mapped stage 1. I think i will remove the oil filter. Catch the oil that drops in a clean catch tray , new one in then top it off with the oil. Peace of mind.
Does anyone know the intervals between Audi services. I.e how long will an oil filter usually last for ? I serviced it tonight after 4,800 miles. But forgot to replace the filter. Should this be okay for another 5k ?
Bit embarrassing that it took a panel beater (me) to show the VW master tech the difference between a Haldex and a Diff. Specially when the have Auto data system showing them the plugs to remove if there not too sure. Yeah the Audi will feel like a veyron once I get back in it.
It's sorted, the dealer got the Haldex and diff mixed up, drained the diff and filled it with Haldex oil. Drove it for 120 miles thinking it was an electrical buzz, It was the diff bearings and cogs slowly dieing. The dealer finally owned uo to there mistake after I explained what they has done...
