    Wanted Anybody fancy an alloy swap?

    Oh forgot to add .. these wheels have a slightly bigger centre bore than 57.1. . They're 60 odd something can't remember off the top of my head but you can buy hub rings so you don't have to tackle getting them on as they have a gap between the centre and the alloy.. it's nothing to worry about...

    Wanted Anybody fancy an alloy swap?

    According to Google you have a 57.1mm centre bore with a 5x112 stud pattern and stock offset of 43.. Which means these would stick out 10mm more than the stock wheels with the et33 offset. ( If I've got that correct, I think I have ) obviously taking into account they're probably a lot wider...

    Wanted Anybody fancy an alloy swap?

    Thanks but I'm more into this style or similar.. The ones I have do have some minor marks unfortunately but they are genuine Audi alloys and not replicas Et33 is just a bit too much for an a3 but they will go on A4 A6 etc no problem Thanks Sent from my Phone using Tapatalk

    Wanted Anybody fancy an alloy swap?

    I have a set of genuine S5 rotors (et33 offset, deep concave) They're a little too wide for my A3 but do look ok.. I could get them to sit just right with some work but I just don't like how the front pokes slightly more than the rear.. All brand new matching set of 4 tyres pretty much If...

    The old 8p subframe.

    how do guys, so.. I recently changed the steering rack on my a3 8p along with a bunch of other front end tackle while i had the subframe off, now i have assembled it all back together im getting the dreaded subframe crack. and its really loud and embarrasing, it cracks probably 3 times during...

    My tfsi is dead..

    Engines all back in and running fine bar one issue. I have a lumpy idle, it's not so bad but I was wondering if this was due to the balance shaft delete? I'd like to hear from anybody that's done it and the outcome. So I don't waste time hunting a vacuum leak etc. All hoses are on, there's...

    My tfsi is dead..

    Well the sprocket from aks doesn't actually say aks on it. So there is no clear difference and will be the same part. it's probably worth buying it from Vis Motorsport directly, I just preferred to order all my bits from one place. Just a note there's two holes on the bottom of the balance...

    My tfsi is dead..

    Just to add, started at five after work. Engine was out by 6.30 so it's peanuts of a job to get one of these out, most of the wiring is on the front of the engine and easily accessible, with coil pack n75 and diverter valve being the only wiring down the back. just getting it back in is a...

    My tfsi is dead..

    The one from vis has £30 postage so it's near enough £200 anyway. I like aks they're a bunch of decent guys so I don't mind blowing the extra £60. Always next day postage and perfect packaging. I've ordered loads off them and they never fail so it's all good. Anyhow, got the engine out but I...

    My tfsi is dead..

    Didn't realize they were open today but have just spoken to a nice gent at aks. I'm going to go for the freewheel sprocket as seen in pics. The balance shafts have zero play but seen as I've got the sump of the new engine I'm cleaning the pickup and buying the sprocket. It's got a big price...

    My tfsi is dead..

    Will do, I'm on a tight schedule this next week so it's going to have to be put off for a few days. I'll give them a bell on Monday morning and see what the options are. I'm going to start posting some pics of the progress etc soon so stay tuned if you're interested I'm actually in two minds...

    Led Headlights Flickering when turn ignition on

    You can do it on vcds.. I did it for my headlights but had trouble with the fogs for some reason it would still flash quickly about 5 times then stop like you say, I forgot the section on vcds but it can be done. You're right about the reason it does it though, ECU is basically checking for...

    My tfsi is dead..

    Ok so I've got my hands on a second hand bwa block and head. It's another 100k but for my sake I wanted to do the balance shaft delete from aks, brand new oil pump and put new bearings and rings on the bottom end. The head all looks fine from the one I've got. I've had the cams out and there's...

    My tfsi is dead..

    I think people are missing the reason why I have gauges lol I have a series of gauges. Oil pressure, boost, afr. Those were fitted prior to having any sort of oil pressure problem or any problems with the engine for that matter. It's remapped yes, but the oil pump has just failed for no...

    My tfsi is dead..

    It's probably going to cost a lot more with the ecu etc. I'd probably better off buying a second hand bwa and putting a balance shaft delete from aks and a k04 on it I've been meaning to delete the balance shafts before they shafted me but I just never got round to it lol it was only a matter...
