    DAZA engines blowing? Or cute advert for tuner?

    There are 6 fresh daza/dnwa rs3's at my shop for rebuilds, all with bent rods or have went lean. This is the number of cars we been dealing with for the last 3 years. I will be sure to do a workshop update on our next video. I will not be naming other tuning companies. It is not in my interest...

    DAZA engines blowing? Or cute advert for tuner?

    I will attach a snippet below about our safety algorithm for this engine below; there are videos on our YouTube of the safety functions in action. This is a good one to get up to speed -

    DAZA engines blowing? Or cute advert for tuner?

    I believe it does and comes bundled with their tune! They will be flashing a patch onto the ecu for high speed logging like us so I don't think it will work with anybody elses tune. We have something similar coming later this year for Android and iOS.

    DAZA engines blowing? Or cute advert for tuner?

    Yes it was! Commercially available equipment is nothing great, I flash a patch onto the ecu that allows me to datalog in high speed via the ram variables. VCDS is okay for hobbyist use if you use turbo mode, group UDS requests and log around 5 parameters at a time.

    DAZA engines blowing? Or cute advert for tuner?

    And here is as aggressive as we go on a Stage 2 plus well setup DNWA Engine. This car was running water meth injection. (map 4) https://www.autotuner-tool.com/en/log/62cffd527f4705592cd8044e0629ee911566d186b9a197ef1deacdb3b132bcfe I'm not sure why the start of this log is cut off, but we don't...

    DAZA engines blowing? Or cute advert for tuner?

    I'm feeling a bit generous tonight so I'm going to post some datalogs without naming companies and explain the three main types of failures on this engine. Case study 1 Hardware on car - intake, intercooler, downpipe. A pretty normal stage 2 plus setup. Rod bearing failure isolated to a...

    DAZA engines blowing? Or cute advert for tuner?

    Having 3 blown RS3 engines delivered on trucks over the course of 3-4 days isn't proof? Putting a blown engine back on the road within 7 days and providing a 3 year 40k mile warranty on it isn't proof? Pulling an RS3 engine out faster than most shops can service your car isn't proof? Having 5+...

    DAZA engines blowing? Or cute advert for tuner?

    I am not saying stock engines are at risk. There have been cases of stock engines failing. A common failure point are the needle bearings inside the rocker arms. I have seen this on DNWA engines too. There have also been cases of stock engines that have shot rods, but I don't think this is...

    Facelift DAZA stripdown

    We rebuilt a pretty much identically specced built engine to this last year! That sleeve design and pistons are just wrong for this engine. If you are looking to have your engine sleeved, I would advise you to contact the owners/running examples of whatever company is proposing to sleeve your...

    Resetting Exhaust Valves RS3 8V FL DAZA

    There is no module, the engine ECU controls both of the the flaps. The start / end points for the flap are determined using internal current measurements. An exhaust flap mechanical malfunction fault is thrown under the ECU if the car doesn't like the values seen. The motor spins in one...

    Facelift TR Hamza MRC

    Hey All! I’ve been off the forum for a little while, I’m putting this post up as a last resort. Although I am sure Sandra will delete this post or ban me. Hamza switched tuners due to MRC being a lot closer and he is now officially sponsored by then, obviously coming to me got their...

    Broken propshaft centre

    So, this is actually very common. A garage has done it to me in the past. That centre bearing can only be damaged in an accident or incorrect removal procedure. People just stay quiet about it. Certain garages will blame the customer and make them pay for a new one so be very wary!

    4 pin vs 3 pin exhaust flap question - can I wire up the same?

    4F0973704 is the plug that you need. 4 pin plug for fl car exhaust valves. An update on this thread, the fl valves can work on a pre fl. Pin 1 off a pre fl loom goes to pin 3 on the fl valve motor. Hope this helps!

    4 pin vs 3 pin exhaust flap question - can I wire up the same?

    You can rewire and you will get no fault codesunder the engine but the 2016 rs3 canbus cannot control the fl 4 pin actuators. A fix for this is to fit an exhaust flap valve controller off a facelift car onto a pre fl with fl actuators

    Has anyone traded their RS3 in for an R8?

    The R8 you can't compare to any normal car, driving dynamics alone are simply incomparable. The non plus versions map well, same engine but different gear ratios and smaller oil coolers. Do it for sure!

    Sportback Ceramic discs

    I would not pay more than 2500 GBP for a set of used front discs. Their is a lad called Tom Pirone selling a set in the "AUDI RS3/TTRS/S3/MK7/R THE DISTRIkT" group on facebook for an okay price.

    Companies who can tune out wastegate rattle

    We have had this patch available since late 2019, through software you can get rid of around 90% of the noise but will still be present very slightly. I don't see it being possible to get rid of this noise 100% as the waste gate still needs to open at some point. Only solutions I have seen to...
