    Facelift Staggered

    So it seems I'm one of the luckiest people in the world. After taking it to Unit18 Automotive in MK, turns out on inspection was just the lower fog lamp grille and wheel arch liner. No damage to anything else. All replaced, including labour, for about £175. Given how much it could have cost...

    400 club (miles per tank, not bhp)

    To be fair mine was over about 90 miles between MK and Sheffield when I wasn't in a rush doing 60mph most of the time except through roadwork's, I think it can be coaxed to do good MPG...but it's boring as f***k

    Haldex pump clean and oil change

    Very interesting to see. I woke up in a cold sweat this morning thinking about Haldex/S-Tronic servicing as I've done ~24k miles in 15 months Having spoken to Audi UK asking where the literature is, either onboard or offboard, they informed me Haldex recommendation is every 3 years, and...

    Fuel filler gas release

    Perhaps, although cars are tested over 40c so not sure if an issue with evap system, not sure vapours should be released from fuel tank :huh:

    Fuel filler gas release

    Has anyone found that when you open the fuel filler cap there is a rush of ‘gas’ (not in the American sense). Almost like opening a pop bottle. Had my S3 over a year and only noticed in the last month or so. It’s everytime I refuel

    Flexible service is up to 19,000 miles for oil and inspection on S3 regardless. Dependent on oil quality of course, doesn't need to be done at 12 months

    Late oil service

    I asked the same question to Doncaster Audi as was a while from booking to getting it in. Had a little panic when service light came on with over a week to go. Got it in an email (gotta get things in writing) that they recommend 'not to exceed 1000 miles or 30 days after the “oil service due”...

    Facelift Fuel types

    Its certainly cheaper that using VPower! Only 5p a litre difference, and even if you fill up 1/2 times a week like myself you aren't really going to notice that over a year.

    Oil service cost.... S3

    I paid £310 a week ago for oil change plus inspection service which of course was far more expensive than independent but overall not too bad. They recommended a tyre change however, and for 4 MPS4’s they quoted £148.80 a corner and after 3 emails and a screengrab from blackcircles managed to...
