    Hi all, Long time lurker here since my B7 RS4 days but not been on for a long time... I have owned a black A4 dynamik estate for about 3 or so years now and it's just had a catastrophic failure and I'm not sure where to turn or what to do. History wise, it's a 2011, black avant, DSG, 90,000...

    Massive thank you to the Phirm

    I've used them for years and they are very well known amongst the VW 'scene' but probably not as well known among the Audi drivers... I thought I would just write about the work they have done to my S3 over the last two days. Basically my front wipers had totally seized and the car had a major...

    Front wipers stopped working?

    Bit of an odd one....last night I got in the car and there was some sap on the windscreen so I put the wipers on and they were very slow and then stopped halfway? Almost as if there was glue on the windscreen, if that makes sense?!!! The whole way home I continued to play with the wipers and I...

    19 S8s on an S3 with standard suspension

    I've been offered some 19inch S8s with tyres from a mate for a very good price... Has anyone offered up some 19s to an S3 with standard suspension? It would be churlish of me not to consider this offer but I don't want to be mucking about with suspension as well!! Cheers, Will
