    Xenon Headlight DRL Help

    So the drivers side LED DRL strip recently stopped working - I purchased a new headlight unit to fix this. I have connected everything back up to the new headlight but now I am getting no lights at all on the DRL option for lights. The LED strip will work when using the sidelight option. I have...

    What have you done to your A3 (8p) this week

    Whoever had it before I bought it obviously didn't know how to park - all 4 alloys were a mess. As for the colour of them before, I think someone has tried to do it themselves on the cheap. Been wanting them done since I got it in March, but other warning lights kept popping up first

    It's the gloss black spray paint from Halfords. £7.99 a can. I've seen a few pictures of black grille with the dark blue and think it's looks nice still Sent from my ELE-L09 using Tapatalk

    Takes a while to enter an address with the scroll wheel - but once it's entered never had any issues and gets me to where I need to go. Bought a 2019 maps disc off eBay and works great. I do like the look it gives the interior compared to aftermarket units. Sent from my ELE-L09 using Tapatalk

    Loving the car. Hopefully get mine looking as nice as that at some point :blush: Can I ask where you got the mirror covers? Looking at respraying the front grille to black so the black mirror covers would go nicely. Cheers

    Sorry for the bad pictures, taken last minute. Decided to respray the callipers to black - and applied some new S3 calliper clips along with decals from eBay. Nothing major but quite happy with how it looks. Also, please ignore the nasty colour of my alloys, they are next on the list to get...

    S3 Facelift - DRL LED Bulb/Strip

    I have disconnected the wiring that was powering the working LED strip, I tried to connect a standard 12V 5W bulb to the wiring for the LED to remove the dashboard fault light hoping this would trick the onboard computer into thinking the light was working. But the warning message is still...

    S3 Facelift - DRL LED Bulb/Strip

    Looking to get some info about the LED DRL bulbs on a 2009 Facelift S3 with Xenon headlights. Driver side light needs replaced. Unsure if it's a single LED or an LED strip?
