Pair of genuine s3 8l wing mirrors (aluminium not plastic) Age related marks as expected (came off 2000 plate) More pics available if required. £150 ONO. Can sort delivery if buyer pays or collection is fine from CV23. Have been sat in my garage since selling the car so keen to see these go...

Hi all, I don't normally frequent the A4 forums but am assisting a friend with an engine swap. He has a 3.0 tdi A4 cabriolet, am gaining an ASB from an A6 and we know it isnt a straight swap. So what will have to be changed? 1. Vacuum pump is on opposite side...can this be worked around...

well I'm low...not slow...n not put off by the snow! Few twitchy moments but 4WD FTW!

To throw my thoughts in - I searched and searched for ways to mount my intercooler with silicone pipes (and retain fogs) and it's just not worth it. It's too hard and wouldn't look as good anyway. I googled fabricators in my area and bought hard pipes. I bunged the guy £20 to weld the hard...

Same as above but I didn't replace the siren just cut it open and attached new batteries. Easy enough and pretty cheap to do. All good now! :) Dave

clunk on front end possibly inner tie rods? I had this and changed mine which fixed the issue. Didn't need a crows foot spanner to reach either - heard I needed one to do it but managed without. Had been putting it off for a while because of this. Dave

I had this and diagnosed it down to the steering knuckle. Where the track rod end connects to the knuckle the hole had warped slightly, giveaway was that the TRE fell out of the hole instead of the taper holding it in

Hi, yes it is indeed - symptoms were pulling to the left (replacing passenger side knuckle) and also when jacked up there was a lot of play when giving it a good shake. Biggest clue as to what needed to be changed was when I took the track rod end out - it just fell out. The taper was worn so...

hi all, I need a replacement steering knuckle for my S3 8L pre-facelift. Can anyone tell me if the facelift has the same part number please? I'm due to pick one up tonight that's all.... To confirm (in case I've got the wrong name!) the steering knuckle is the part that the tie rod connects...

I took my 2000 plate back to the dealers (Northampton) for this and they were happy to look into it. They said that it was quite far out of warranty however would look into what could be done. This was maybe April/June 2016 ish. Unfortunately didn't get any further though as they checked the...

They do indeed but they only seem to email out the higher codes to people who have registered their email addresses. The website only offers 30% direct :) I phoned them the other day for a price and without ANY bartering they knocked off 30% so you're right - they must make too much :)

all, share and share alike I guess :) x

I've had a very similar issue - tracking all good (apparently) but the wheel wasn't straight. Found that I had an issue with an inner tie rod so swapped both and got it re-tracked by someone reliable. Noticed that the car was pulling heavily to the left but couldn't establish why - thought the...

Thanks @shaunevo6 , annoyingly the drivers side bearing is worn.. shame it wasn't all on one side only lol. @ayfreetee think you are right, I swapped the track rod about 6 months ago and it only took minimal effort to get it out the hub then and the nut was slightly loose....I didnt think much...

Thanks Shaun - appreciate the reply. I thought that would be the case however not the most mechanically experienced so just wanted to check :) Best to replace the pair or just one? Was tempted to paint them. message sent to Nathan now :D

Hi all, Replaced tie rods and track rods last night and found that I still have play in the passengers side wheel. Noticed that when I undid the nut for the track rod it dropped straight out of the hub instead of needing a whack to release it. It looks as though there has been previous play...

You sir are a gentleman. Thanks I didn't know that most helpful :)

brake light warning - obvious really when I take into consideration the pixelated DIS. It doesn't have the warning lines around it as I expected to see which confused me a bit. Thanks TCG for your help - sometimes all you need to do is post a query to see how obvious it is :)
