    Looking for o.e.m. 19" wheels, what name/partnumber?

    I bought mine on ebay.co.uk. I wouldn't recommend them due to their weight. One rim weights 12.5 kg. It wouldn't be a problem for a S3, but I can feel how my stage 1 1.5TFSI loses dynamics. Also, there was an issue with the finish: the lug bolt holes weren't painted deep enough so I could see...

    Looking for o.e.m. 19" wheels, what name/partnumber?

    It is a copy of RS6 wheels that are 22" big as oem. I have a 19" replica of these wheels on my car. They are heavy. GMP Italy make an Angel wheels that look similar. I know of one more aftermarket wheel manufacturer who makes wheels with this design but I don't remember the brand.

    8.5J RS3 wheels all round ?

    Usual stretch, not too big. No rubbing at all on moderately lowered car. There is a wheel thread with lots of pictures here on ASN. Check it out.

    RS3 diffuser on an S3?? Straight swap ??

    It's unlikely. Check out xenonz-uk. They have some RS3 look diffusers for the S3 bumper: https://www.xenonz.co.uk/audi-a3-s3-8v-2012-2015-products.html

    8.5J RS3 wheels all round ?

    19x8.5J alloys with 235/35/19 tyres is the best flush look for an A3/S3 without spacers :) You can add some 5-8 mm spacers to the rear, but I like it without it.

    Audi s3 exhaust on Audi A3 1.4

    Yes, it is. It's a bit louder, not much though, but I like it because it's deeper.

    Sound deadening advice

    I'm in a process of sound deadening my S-line with A.S.S. I finished front doors last summer doing it on both inner and outer skin as well as on door cards. I have taken pictures and can post them here, but I don't have time right now.

    Looking for side skirts

    I wish there were RS3-looking side skirts made for an A3/S3.

    Wheel fitment

    8J ET40 is flush with the fender on a sportback. If you have a saloon/sedan, you can get lower offset. On this picture: my sportback on 235/35/19x8 ET40.

    Tinting front windows to match rears - what % ?

    I do not have the privacy glass. I have fronts tinted 70%, rears 45%. I did it to avoid too obvious difference between the rears and the fronts. 45% is much lighter than the privacy glass looks. I saw 20% tint and it looked darker than the privacy glass, so I guess 35% would be a close match. If...

    How to get metal accelerator pedal on?

    I used nothing. There's a certain way to fitting them. I watched a youtube video that shows it. It was not easy and I swore like a sailor but managed to make the job done.

    How to un-code steering wheel heating?

    Hey everyone. I recently replaced my heated steering wheel with a FBSW with paddles. Now, obviously, I see a steering wheel heating error every time I turn on the ignition. I'd like to remove it from the system. Does anyone know how? I don't own a VCDS cable but I have OBDeleven. It would help a...

    Pfl saloon vs fl saloon rear bumper

    I can't say about the saloon bumper/diffuser, but removing the s-line diffuser on my FL sportback took just a few minutes. I didn't remove the bumper.
