Dragging up an old post!
I need to replace my steering rack on S3 8p 2009. I have bought a reconditions rack and am now looking to swap them over.
Has anyone ever swapped them over themselves? It doesnt look too complicated.
Disconnect steering column from inside the footwell
Disconnect...
Hi has anyone had a remap done by JM Performance Essex?
What are your thoughts and reviews?
They are near by be and I'm looking at getting stage 1 remap on 2009 s3 8p
The reason I changed the springs in the first place was because the rear spring was broken. and I also really like the way it sits
The ride isn't actually too bad so I think it should be fine when I get new shocks.
Just wondering if anyone had this set up before
Budget isn't really allowing me to change my while set up so I'm sticking with h&r 25mm lowering springs.
I have decide to change shocks all round.
Bilstein being a bit expensive I have found the Koni str. t shock absorbers which seem to quote reasonably priced, suitable for up to 40mm drop...
I've done a bit of research and read that bilstein b8s are for 40mm drop springs or more?
of I was to fit these would the improve my ride smoothness and comfortability?
or would it make it a harsh ride compared to the stock shocks
Hmm interesting when I researched about different lowering spring options everyone raved about h&r springs...so that's what I went for.
Now I'm thinking might be worth considering changing to eibach if they are slightly softer. Because the misses keeps hinting that I need to sell the car...
I don't really know what I am looking for of I'm honest there seems to be a lot of different kinds which all look different.
Would I be possible for you to send me some links to some different options
Hi thanks for the reply.
Is there any more reasonably price set around. I can't really be spending 200 atm as I have a kid on the way. was looking at the Sachs ones for just over 100. Will they do the job for now or are they really crap
Hi
I need to get some new rear shocks for my 2009 s3 8p. I've got H&r 25mm lowering springs.
Been looking on Euro car parts and autodoc but not sure what the best manufacturer is to go for?
Sachs Koni or any other.
Please could someone point me in the right direction.
Hi
I have just recently painted my calipers graphite grey..see picture...
I am now on a job for a few weeks and have thought of the idea of polishing the retainer clip on the front calipers so that is has a polished finish then putting the s3 stick on.
My questions are..
Are they even metal...
what she the differences between a general 1 , 2 and 3?
and what one would I have in my 2009 58 s3?
why did the change them? was it because of these problems?
if it is a rack problem what rack would I be looking to replace it with?
is there anyways I can just replace the power steering valve on its own?
any tests I can do before I spend loads more money?
