    Thank You

    To S3Steve, lets just say add at least £17k to a brand new S3. To vanilla_ice, the S3 is an absolute pain in the ar*e to get the childs baby seat in and out. We stuck it out for 4 months to see how things progressed. I would have kept the S3 but my wife uses the car more than me and she was...

    Thank You

    My intentions were to keep the S3 for the wife but its far to impractical with the baby, so the S3 had to go :o( . Replaced that with the CSL for me and a 325i M-Sport for the wife. The CSL is an absolute beast, a totally different car to drive. The power delivery and the noise is something...

    1st MOT

    Similar question. My 03 S3 (import) was unregistered when bought by me in Sep 03. The dealer registered the car with Audi in Nov 2002, it seems that it sat around for 10 months. When would the MOT be due, is it 3 years from Nov 02 or 3 years from Sep 03?????

    front i/c

    I have used Pace in the past, they fabricate excellent products, I didn't think they done anything for the S3 / A3. Do any of the TT FMIC fit an S3???

    S3 Gone (sob, sob) V8 Twin Turbo Badboy Has Arrived!

    Nice car, Hope all goes well. Be careful of the gearbox, they originally came from a Renault 21 and are prone to breaking. Cheers Dicky Boy

    1st Service

    I wanted to share this with you guys as I was gob smacked. On Saturday I took my beloved S3 into Bexley Audi for its first service. My local dealer SG Smith in Bromley and Beckenham couldn't book me in for 10 days. Took the car in and requested a couple of things to be checked. I received a call...

    Extended Audi Warranty for my S3

    Am I correct in saying that Audi Warranties cover all parts and labour costs. If I extend the warranty with Audi would it be the same as a Audi manufacturers warranty?? I was considering getting the car serviced with my local Audi stealer. Whilst being serviced they would carry out the 71 point...

    Extended Audi Warranty for my S3

    I am seriously thinking about extending my warranty with Audi. Has anyone extended their warranty recently if so how much did it cost? Do Audi charge UK cars differently to UK Import cars if so why and what is the difference in cost. Do dealers have a price structure that they have to stick to...

    Rare colour S3.....

    I drove past this car 2 weeks ago sitting on the front of the dealer. Its not really my cup of tea but it does looks ok. The picture does the car no justice you will have to see it in the flesh.

    Thank you to the man with the tow bar

    What a Shi!, I know Chislehurst is a nightmare especially with 4x4 jeeps. Some little ***** decided to take a key to my month old S3 with only 600 miles on the clock. Luckily they only put a 9" scratch on the drivers wing, I was gutted. I was concerned about where to go in the Bromley area. My...

    Alu Mirror Covers

    After searching high and low for a set of Alu mirror covers I have been let down. Scotts Mototune can't get hold of them as their supplier has gone bankrupt in Germany. Does anyone know who if anyone currently stocks them, alternatively will any other covers from the S range fit the S3. I have...

    Turbo boost pressure?

    I used to have a mint Escort RS Turbo running 16psi , there is no way it would keep up with my 225 S3. If your mate has just had the Escort chipped he will have a serous amount of turbo lag especially running 17psi. From 1-3500 rpm the power will be very lame, if he has a cam and a flowed head...

    Knocking Noise

    I picked up my New Avus Silver S3 last week and am very pleased. Over the weekend I started to hear a weird knocking noise coming from the back end of the car. The noise sounds like a thud, it only seems to appear after I brake and then accelerate. Has anyone else had this problem if so what was...
