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...

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……

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...

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...

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.

Right. So I need to look into getting a local VCDS person to sort me out

So coded you mean? I don’t know what adaption channel is. Thx.

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

Eh? I didn’t know I could! ‍♂️ What do I need to do that?

Why not leave the Cross Climate 2‘s on all the time? It’s not like we get much summer here,

Anyone using a good aftermarket TPMS on a 2011 S3?

I’ve got a CTEK sensor on my S3. Although I cannot compare to ‘real’ readings as I have no meter to check it against.

There is no mileage attached to the 8P S3 timing belt. They work to 5 years regardless of mileage. My 2nd one is due this year and Audi can kiss my *** if I’m giving them £750 for belt and water pump in a car that’s done less than 28k miles in 5 years with ****** all driven in the last year or...

+1 for the Varta here. I put one in my S3. As for the battery charge thoughts, I hear ya. Over the past year whilst not driving, I fitted a CTEK sensor on my battery to monitor the charge and voltage. Charge % isn’t matching any online charts I’ve seen vs battery voltage (CTEK reports lower than...

They changed the grade on my S3 during the time I’ve had it and now use 0W when I would have thought for an older 2011 car, the 5W it was on would be better for it.

Another stupid thought.... what info gets wiped from the ECU when you change the battery? I have the RNSE code from last time. That s a long story and ended up with me paying a website to get it, to then arguing with Audi to get a refund as they couldn’t give me the ****ing code! Unreal.

As per topic. Is this still a good battery to get? E44 Varta Silver 77Ah, (577400078) https://www.tayna.co.uk/E44-Varta-Silver-Car-Battery-577400078-P7726.html Varta DIN: 577 400 078 Thanks all. I hope you’re all doing ok at the moment? Regards, Richard.

Thx folks. Sound advice all round [emoji1305][emoji846]

Is there an error code for a defective heated wing mirror? Near side one doesn’t seem to be working (only one chance to test it so far), although it auto dims ok. Tonight is the first almost frost I’ve been out in to see it not working. Lol. T.I.A. folks, [emoji1303][emoji3]

I was thinking of the new Asy 4’s but stuck with the PS 4’s again. I’m gonna measure the tread depth this week. I got a **** set even though it was a recent manufacture date. Lower tread at the start so need to check em. I could have a battle on my hands with Michelin. Lol.
