Hi everyone, Quick few questions... I've got an 8L S3 with Xenon headlights and one of them has turned a yellow-ish colour... Pretty much the same colour as a normal halogen bulb. It's only on one side, I've got no other bulbs out or anything like that and the other "good" light is still as...

Well guys I finally bit the bullet and booked myself in to R-Tech last week, I went down with low hopes and came back over-joyed!!! The first run on the rollers showed the car made 220bhp, which I was impressed with to say it's only supposed to be 210bhp standard! I have the following engine...

Morning everyone! I've got issues with the S3 again!!! This time electrically related... For a while now, every time it rains or if I have the car washe, the rev counter has been having small seizures... Revving up and up then dropping down to idle and flicking all over the place when the...

Evening all! As I do quite alot of motorway miles, I'm starting to feel the sting of 26mpg average... It's my own fault because I can't help but put my foot down... However, if I had cruise control, it will be easier to keep a constant speed and not be so tempted by other people... If you know...

Morning everyone! I'm planning on giving my 8L S3 a little fettle today, and I was wondering what the best order to do things is... Is it best to - Wash, dry, polish, clay with detailing spray, then wax... Or - Wash, dry, clay with detailing spray, then polish and wax after? I use all...

Ok, so my electric seat tilt (the motor that lifts your legs up and down, NOT the back-rest) hasn't worked since I bought my S3 back in February, and recently I've been having a few back problems, and I recon the S3 is the cause. The little bolster/lumbar support switch works fine as does the...

Under the part that says 2nd gear under my avatar, there are the green pips... When will I get more/what do they mean? I've noticed people with only 100 or so posts with a whole rack of them... But I only have one with over 400 posts :/ Ben

As the title says... This is the problem; How do I get rid of it? Please note, these aren't my wheels, they are... You guessed it... The Mrs' wheels ;) lol

Hi all I'm learning to fly at the minute (in real life) and I'm wanting something to keep my mind ticking over when I'm not having lessons (as it's £130 an hour, and can only afford a couple a month) Does anyone rate flight simulator X? I've heard it's quite accurate and combined with a...

Hi all Is there anything at all I can do about this? It's my Mrs' wheel (the others are the same) on her golf. I've told her she is to be ashamed of herself and all that and she just doesn't get it lol... But anyway here it is;

First of all, I would like to say a MASSIVE thank you to all the guys at Top Gear Performance who carried out all this work and put up with me taking loads of pictures :D The first thing to do then is remove the old, heavy, restrictive exhaust... Then, instead of dropping the subframe...

So I've recently received my shiny new relentless manifold.. And I'm wondering what the best way to go about fitting it is? I'm thinking, charge pipe off and the red soft boost pipe off, cam cover off then set about the manifold bolts. I'm guessing with the design of it, and looking at it now...

As above really, I know they weigh as much as a cathedral, but just wondered how much that is lol Cheers

Ok, I have just fitted R32 Calipers, disks and pads, and the new pads didn't have brake pad warning wiring... So I just left it unplugged. Only problem now is, obviously my warning light is always on. Is there any bodge I can do to get rid of it? Cheers Ben

Hi everyone, Well I've had a crap day today... Got my new 334mm disks to go with my R32 Golf calipers today, and though WOOHOO! I'm finally going to fit them!!! The brake pads I ordered pitched up, some Ferodo Ds250, which to my horror upon opening the box were for single piston calipers... mine...

Hi all, just after ranting a bit. So, I'm sat in one of those camping chairs with my iPhone in the little drinks holder, chipping old powder coat off some massive new calipers for my S3, and realised the chair was collecting little blue chips of powder coat and itching my bum some what... So I...

Good after morning. Just a quick one for anyone who has done this before, but I'm in a dilema as to which braided hoses to buy. I have an S3 8L, with Mk4 golf r32 calipers and disks! Question is, do I buy braided hoses for the golf, or the S3? Thanks Ben

As the title says really, does anyone have one of these, and are they worth it? I'm aware of what it does, or at least what it says it does.. But is it bad for the turbo? My guess is not, at least on a standard car as the stated 1-3psi increase over the rev range is nothing compared to the...
