Had a slight mishap with a curb last night, didnt go down to well. Anyway, i have a 1.8t 1999 a3, i know the mk4 golf's are pretty much the same chassis. Could anyone tell me if the rear axles are the same? Help appreciated, cheers.

Hi everyone, Right, ive been looking into getting a 2.5/3" downpipe as im hearing you can get gains of up to 8/10bhp over standard!? Ive looked around and it seems to be you can only buy the downpipe WITH a decat pipe. Im not keen on decating my car atm as ive got mot coming up and i already...

Okay answers my question, haha cheers.

Hi, i just stumbled across this on the internet, anyway know anything about these or got one themselves? Seems abit weird to me... http://www.tuningwizard.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=482 :D

Okay thanks. I am going to purchase a 3" decat pipe soon, so i was wondering maybe a 2" downpipe from then onwards would not make that much difference to a 2.5 ect.. or am i wrong?

Okay cheers! Yeh i have heard the sportex systems do give a bigger power gain over other exhausts. Never heard of longlife, sounds good tho, how much did that set you back? :) The real question is tho, is a 2" downpipe too small? lol

hi guys, im about to purchase a cat back system for my 1.8t, i came across this sportex system on on ebay: (I understand the mk4 golf setup will also fit with a slight bit of modifying) Golf MK4 1.8 Turbo Sportex Exhaust inc Race Tube Twin 3 | eBay Anyway has anyone had experience with...

Okay thanks, ive just come across this on ebay Funnel, oil dipstick AUDI A3 TT SEAT ALHAMBRA CORDOBA | eBay UK is that what i need? I haven't taken the old one out yet so im not exactly sure what it looks like..

Cheers :) Anyone know where i can get a replacement oil dipstick housing/funnel?

Right ive fixed the problem guys. I cant actually believe what the real problem was all this time lol. Basically, i accidently filled the oil above max yesterday, not too much about a cm, anyway drove it that night and i noticed oil pressure light did not come on atall all night.. i thought...

Oh ryt, ill have a good listen next time it does it. So yes looks like i will have to try the oil pump, i changed the oil pickup pipe around a month ago, is the pump a much harder job? or pretty straight forward, any specific tools i need?

No not really from cold, probably slightly tappier when warm, and SOMETIMES does tap quite loud after a little thrashing, but not very often. Nah i haven't, next time it does it i will try, my mate recon'd it was the tappets? But tbh im not sure. Oh ryt i used 10w40 cos its abit thicker and my...

Hmmm yeh oil pump next i recon :/ I'm using 10w40 Castrol lee. Oh ryt, i have looked before on my sump and there isn't a oil lever sensor there, there's a space for one...i presumed they were not on a3's that earlier but could be wrong? Worth getting my car pressure tested at a garage before...

on the oil filter housing, at the side.

Hmmm on a few occasions it has sounded pretty tappy top end after a long drive but will sound fine again the next day when i start it up..? Isn't the sensor same as the switch?

Hi guys, i know theirs probally been a few posts already on this but im wondering if someone can help me abit more. Basically ive got a 99 agu 1.8T engine.. the oil pressure light flashes up on the dash and bleeps whenever i go round a corner above about 40mph, ive changed my oil, oil filter...

Hi all, right basically i have some 18" rs4 alloys ( i think there reps) with 2 good tyres and 2 not so good, pretty curbed tbh and could defiantly do with a refurb. Is it worth swapping these with some s3 wheels with tyres (same tread depth as mine) pretty good condition with only the odd...
