    S3 clutch pedal gone to the floor

    I got in my 2014 manual S3 this morning and put my foot on the clutch pedal ready to start it and the pedal shot to the floor and stayed there. I can pull it back up by hand, but as soon as it's pushed again it shoots straight to the floor again. I can't see anything obvious - was expecting to...

    Useless dealer

    Just had my 80k service carried out yesterday by my local dealer (Edinburgh Audi) including getting the belts changed along with the waterpump. Also got a new radiator under warranty as the old one was leaking slightly. Was going through the bill this morning and noticed that they have charged...

    Any decent garages in Edinburgh?

    I will soon be needing my 80k service/cambelt change done on my 2.8 A4 - does anyone know any decent garages in Edinburgh that can do the cambelt change? I have tried a few places but none of them will do the belt on the V6 engine as it is supposedly too complicated. Thanks.

    Vibration through steering wheel/car

    I have a 2001 A3 1.8t with 36,500 miles which I bought a few weeks ago. I have noticed that there is a vibration through the steering wheel when I lift off the accelerator when above 80 mph. At first I thought it was wheel balancing, but would that not cause vibrations when accelerating as well...

    1.8t engine hesitation

    Hello everyone - I just got a 2001 A3 1.8t sport on Saturday and absolutely love it. However on 3 occasions today the engine has hesitated when moving off - it is almost like the accelerator is being pressed/released repeatedly until it hits 3000 rpm and it then pulls smoothly. Does anyone...
