    Motec ultralight wheels

    Thread resurrection. Selling my Motec ultralight wheels and buyer is asking if there would be any issues with them on an RS3 saloon. They are 19x8.5J ET43 Square setup. They came with 5mm spacers and extended bolts so can't imagine there would be any clearance issues would there?

    Cat back exhaust options

    The OE tips are spot welded to the pipes rather than clamped on like most aftermarket Scorpion do a cat back system with oval carbon fibre tips

    Sportback Poor car, badly maintained I bet too

    Watched that the other day too, assumed someone had retrofitted VC to a PFL car as much easier than reverse engine swap

    Retro fit RS Sports Exhaust

    I dont think even removing the motor will give you much access as the valve will be sealed to prevent exhaust gasses escaping. The only way I can think of would be going in from the tip end of the exhaust but that's pretty much unfeasible unless you use a borescope or something to see where you...

    Retro fit RS Sports Exhaust

    I wouldn't recommend a soray like wd40 as good chance it would just mix with carbon deposits around the valve and turn into a glue like paste. Maybe a graphite based lubricant?

    RS3 Traction Control And Tyres

    Any authorised dealer with ODIS should be able to apply software updates

    RS3 Traction Control And Tyres

    Or get the ABS module update that fixes the traction intervention issue and run whatever tyres you want. Not had a single moment of flickering TC light in over 2 years since had it done and have run staggered sets of MPS4S and now Contintal Sport Contact 7s Also should be 235/35 on rears

    RS3 FL Brakes

    I'm sure I read a while back DBA use Hawk as their supplier , wonder if they have other pad compounds with a wider working range

    RS3 FL Brakes

    Did the DBA pads have wear sensors and did you have to order 2 sets ? Seen some pads advertised as a set of 4 and others as a set of 8

    Brake Caliper refurb

    I used BCS automotive years ago to get my Alcon calipers refurbished, turnaround took a few days but their work is excellent https://www.bcs-automotive.co.uk/brake-caliper-painting-service/

    New discs, still judder

    I had an issue years ago with ds2500 pads where the discs got so hot on track the pads left deposits on the surface of the disc which caused horrendous judder. Getting discs skimmed sorted it but won't use ds2500 again

    RS3 DAZA oil consumption

    Honestly near zero oil consumption on mine. Check it every 4 weeks and never had to top up between services in over 2 years of owning . Have heard its not uncommon for DAZA units to use a little oil though

    Sportback Michellin ps4s?

    Think they need to have an ODIS account to do software updates to the module Sent from my SM-G988B using Tapatalk

    Sportback Michellin ps4s?

    Haldex probably needs a software update. Was talking to a tech at Ecotune last year and he said a few of their customers who run staggered PS4S on the RS3 have had traction light issues and solved with Haldex software update

    Facelift 356 New rear discs.

    In fairness I was using a 7mm Allen bit on a 3/8th drive , would have been much easier with a 7mm Allen key but of course that and the 9mm are missing from my set , probably gone to the same realm as my 10mm socket [emoji849]. Dunno if all RS3 rears are the same or perhaps just the angle my...

    Facelift 356 New rear discs.

    So after giving up with reyland and their poor communication I've just put on a set of OEM pads for the short term until I decide on what rear discs to go for. Feck me they made the top slide pin on each rear caliper inaccessible with their brake line routing , passenger side was particularly...
