    A3 8P DRL's

    What is the best option to go for in regards to fitting the above? I'd like to keep it as close to oem as I can. I've tried having a look for the official Audi ones but haven't had any luck so far. Any advice on this? Any help would be appreciated!

    Anyone mapped a pd140 that made siron noise and would occasionlly go into limp mode?

    My turbo went to the great scrapyard in the sky, but I fear it was on its way out anyway. I upgraded my turbo to a hybrid and haven't looked back since!

    A3 TDI Quattro exhaust options

    So happy with my car at the moment after being off the road for months with a blown turbo! Replaced with a hybrid now! Just had the standard wheels sprayed black and I love them. Just away to pick up my black centre caps and hopefully my black grille will arrive and I'll be super happy! :D
