Thanks for the contact Rob, I decided to come and try and find the thread you were talking about. I've sent you a reply with the link on Driver but here's the link for anyone still having problems with their armrest-----> http://00626e1.netsolhost.com/formoshun/s3/Armrest.htm

Well I just got back to London a few weeks back, initially after installing the haldex I thought the symptoms had gone away, but after driving it for the past 2 weeks the problem is back. The techs at the garage told me that it's a problem they got often (they used to work for VW/Audi) from...

I got back to the UK a few days back, and yesterday I drove my S3 (its been sitting parked up for like 4 months now). I had to jump start it, but that was it. It was driving fine until I got next to my house when the warning light and ABS light switched on so I parked the car at the house and...

I've got the dieselgeek shifter as well, but I got it because my OEM gears were a bit crunchy and very slow to engage. I've got the older version of the dieselgeek so I gotta update to see if it makes a difference........I didn't really answer your question but I wanted to give you my input...

you can download the latest program/interface for free from: http://www.ross-tech.com/vag-com/ I was lucky enough because I split the cost of the cable with my bro since he had a Golf V6 4motion so we could use the cable for both cars. I think we ordered it from the same site as listed above...

humm as far as I remember it was somewhere next to the DV. Could you give us feedback once you've installed it?

depends what you're referring to: MAF = needs cleaning every now and then, not often, maybe every 20,000 miles (but it can go longer without cleaning) Coils = I had two go bad on me when I reached around 80k, so I replaced all four. Coil backs are known to go after a re-map (which was sort...

wait can you explainwhat the symptoms were? did it shake when you were just sitting idle? without turning left or right or even forward or back?

Well with 76k then "maybe" the coil packs are about to go, but you'll defiantly know when it goes cause the car will drive like an absolute pig. The Mass Air Flow sensor is connected to your air filter box, it's a unit that sits between your Air filter and Intake pipe (TIP) to the Turbo...

Lovely Pics mate, the Olive one take first prize for me

I've had the ECS bars since November 2006 and so far no problems at all, check 'em out :beerchug:: http://00626e1.netsolhost.com/formoshun/s3/Suspensions.htm I bought them of Awesome at the time, I think the Forge ones were out of stock or they were a bit more expensive. I bought it for...

Hmm do you have Vag-com? It has saved me loads of time, money and hassle: I would check your Coil Packs (How many miles has your car done) and I'd also check/clean your MAF sensor, maybe it's just dirty. Or of course the obvious new Spark plugs if needed.

wait wait wait, I don't get it, what's all that crap all over your car and the ferrari? :confused:

Humm, well it cost me around £600 for the uprated Haldex Unit from Awesome and I saw it as a worth while investment because it's either I get the uprated unit or replace it with the standard unit. The benefit of the first option is that it transforms how the car handles as well, giving it a much...

Looks nice mate, although getting it on a "private road" would be better :rolleyes:

you could always try to just tighten the bolts up a bit, I found that solved a few of my rattle issues

Very nice mate, Good job :beerchug:

^ well I would have thought that the Clutch sensor would be easier and cheaper to fix, if that's the same thing you were referring to. My bro had his clutch sensor thing go bad on him and he changed it for around £20 (as far as I can remember) but if that was my problem it would have showed up...

If these sensors were faulty would they not show up on Vag-com? Because I did a diagnostics check before fitting the upgraded Haldex and go no errors for those.

Sorry for the late update guys, I traveled back from the UK yesterday and never had time to update everyone on what I've done. Basically here goes: I bought an upgraded Haldex unit of Awesome GTI and got it installed on Tuesday. Now the battery was taken out for the ECU to re-learn...
