    s3 replacement headlamps

    @MPH they went back to him because the inside lamps broke of there monts and the lamps just rattled about in them and I don't have the motors connected so that's not why they broke. So he 3d printed the part and now after getting them.back they constantly have condensation in them. I got in...

    s3 replacement headlamps

    Check out George Seamons on fb for a set of good headlights I'd not use EM tuning for them. I have a set from him and have had trouble with them since I got them and been back with him twice.

    Just to update this thread. I replaced the fan control module and now have a working after run pump. The air con fan doesn't come on so I'm hoping it only comes on when the outside temp is at a certain temp. I found it easier to get to by removing the battery and tray and removing the 2 10mm...

    @desertstorm the car is a 2001 audi s3. I've ordered a fan control module using the part number that @vanilla_ice posted up and hopefully it will arrive tomorrow and I can get it fitted. Where abouts is it located? If I take out the battery is it there and can it be replaced from the top or do I...

    @Ian W you are spot on all mechanics want to do now is simple oil changes or breaks. Over here they are a joke mate. He said he had double checked all the earth's and any plugs that where taken of. I'll check the fuses but I'd like to think that they would have the sense to check them aswell...

    So this car and mechanic's are really trying my patients these days. They finally put the gearbox back in the car after 8 weeks for a 2 week job he had said at the start. Now I don't have a working after run pump,air con fan,radiator fan and climate controls don't work. He's basically washed...

    @desertstorm yeah the ones I need are the ones that are £200 each. He says they have perished to much to reuse so no other option really but to pay it. I'm feed up with the driveway looking like I break cars for a living.

    Where has the parts request gone on the site I can't seem to find it. I need 2 seals for the transfer box and the gearbox guy is saying they are £200 each which seems a stroking price

    @S3AMJ I will get the mechanic to look at the turbo when he's taking the gearbox out as there is a leak in a seal so he said gearbox out job. So might be a good time to think of the dsg conversion. @Brad1011 yeah the motor was built 2017 and all the seals,rings and all that jazz and then the...

    Car has started burning oil. A mate was behind me and he said when I accelerate there was puffs of blue smoke and sitting at light I can see wee clouds if smoke. Now I'm hoping it's just stem seals but what do more experience people think this could be?

    I recently got a arieal and base from my local audi. Was £49 and they had to order it in and that took a good 2 months. I had actually forgotten about it until they phoned to say it had arrived lol.

    @desertstorm thanks for replying. Yeah mate car runs and drives just every so often the eml light comes on and these are the codes. I can clear them and drive and it might not come on again until the nxt day again.

    So got the car back but now with more problems. CD changer doesn't work and I have the eml light on. Would these codes be a failing fuel pump or has this amateur done something else Also have a drivers headlight not working so hopefully only the headlight bulb as the side light works fine.

    Engine rebuild advice

    As above badger 5 is probably the best with this platform. As @Stuart B said what's ur power goal? Just a stock engine refresh won't cost much. A hybrid turbo build probably £5/£7k Big turbo build somewhere £10/15k or more depending on how far you go. There is quite a few build threads on here...

    @Ian W I agree totally. Garages here only seem to want to oil changes or simple wee jobs. It was picked up by the mot center as a hole where the rear jacking point is. So when they took the plastic sill cover of it was completely rusted. @killfame he was the only welder near me and thought it...

    Had the car over to a garage to get the passenger sill replaced. There was a lot of rust and a hole at the rear jacking point. Supposed to be a professional welder doing it for 30 years but some how the amateur managed to set the car on fire fs. So he burned a module for the rear lights the...
