Hey boys and girls!
Hoping some of the more informed people might be able to help!
Basically a friend of mine's recently bought my A3 1.8T Sport and the ignition barrel decided to snap, the linkage between the barrel and the switch is what's failed.
He's sourced a new barrel and key, swapped...
Bit of a long shot I know! Looking for the build thread with the a/s3 in silver or light grey I think it was on the 5 spoke OZ alloys? Can't really remember much about it :/
Hello you good old lovely bunch of people!
Few quick questions if you please!
Firstly i'm replacing my coolant temp sensor and thermostat and was just wondering which is the best coolant to use - G12 or G12+? Also where to get it from?
Secondly, I'm going to be buying one of the...
Good morning boys and girls!
Please bear with me as I've been through the sticky in the how-to section but this only seems to cover the pre-facelift to facelift conversion.
I can see that one of the plugs on my current lights is a 4 pin plug.
However there is also a circular plug so I was...
Hey guys, I'm just wondering if someone can tell me what size copper washers I need for the banjo bolt attaching the flex pipe to the caliper on the rear brakes? Also where could I get the washers from? Would somewhere like b and q potentially have them?
Thanks in advance, Josh
Well thought it was about time I started a build thread for my car otherwise I'll never get round to making one!
It's an "S" reg Audi A3 8L 1.8 T Sport.

Motech remap
JOM Coilovers
TT Front brake...
On Thursday I changed my boot bulbs to LEDs and blew the interior lighting fuse, changed it and now they're fine. Also proceeded to change my vanity mirror bulbs but they're not working and fuses seem ok (which fuse is it for the vanity mirrors btw?)
Noticed when I was setting off from my...
Met up with a few of the guys off here last night just outside awesome in Irlam. Had my car logged for the first time and it's given me a good base to work from etc. Just wanted to say thanks to Sandip and Lee for the logging and cheers to the rest of the guys! Was a good laugh and good to...

Thanks in advance!

Right guys and girls! Recently bought an Audi A3 1.8 T sport, S reg (1998) Drove it all the way home from Essex to manchester. The car didn't miss a single beat all the way home until getting about 5 miles away from home, at which point (after some "spirited driving" and one of the coilovers...
Well following on from my other thread, I wanted to know if I'd be able to borrow my friends Camshaft position sensor (T reg AGU 1.8T) and try it in mine (S reg AGU 1.8T) as the car threw this up as a fault twice and isn't boosting at the moment. Are they simply unplug/plug in or will they need...
Car has no boost at all. Turns over and idles fine, however actuator not operating and feels as if turbo isn't spinning up at all! All boost hoses mounted securely, no air leaks. Accelerate and car revs really slow and no turbo at all. No boost, car revs very slowly and drives really slow.
Any...
Hey all, was wondering if anyone knew of anywhere that does a 52mm vent gauge pod for the audi A3 8l that looks like the mark 4/5 golf ones.
I'm aware that SMG do one but it's a full solid unit, however, I'm after one that looks OEM with the vent slats still cut into it around the gauge pod...
