    AutoGlym Super Reson Polish .. And..?

    I've used AutoGlym's Super Resin Polish without doing any research and going by what the chap said at the shop (:banghead:) During the cleanup I realised the cloth was getting black color on it - not a lot - just light black on yellow cloth making it obvious. How much damage, if any, it would...

    Brake pad sensor

    Silly question perhaps - but does every Audi A3 have a brake pad sensor or it is an optional equipment? I am aware that it is front brakes only so that is ok. I was thinking of having my brakes serviced etc but I was informed that there is a sensor for Front ones, which hasn't gone off yet...

    S3 3dr alloys on 5dr?

    Chaps, I am confused between getting RS4 style alloys (e.g. Leeds2592's avatar) or the onesbelow which are S3 alloys on 3 Door. Would 3Dr alloys look good on 5 door - I know they are just alloys but it doesn't get into my head that, say alloys from Golf will not look good on Audi or the way...

    Alloys - 17" or 18"

    Considering London's crappy roads, I am more inclined towards 17" as oppose to 18". Could someone share their experience? Is the ride more rough on 18" in City/Motorways? What about their affect on suspension? Also, I didn't quite understand the ET56 specification! I am assuming both of the...
