    How do people buy tyres nowadays?

    Conti Sport 5's for me all the way, regardless of cost, best all round grip, stopping distance in all conditions. Had budgets on previous cars do have never been against them, now days, I see the light. Kelvin, put a set of premiums on your car and take it round a wet track, you will see, all...

    Got a bargain last night on the bay!

    I think anyway lol, I won this facelift climate unit for £23.50 delivered. eBay - The UK's Online Marketplace So options are: A - swap the whole unit, although I think this may cause problems as the AC button is different to the Econ button on the older style ones. B - Swap the twist...

    S3 pedals

    They are very easy to fit, to avoid breaking the electric connector you have to push it hard down and it will release easily, dont just pull it out as you will break it. That guy on ebay is where i got mine from and they were delivered in good time and are the real deal.

    8P2 S3 Valance and Diffuser

    Well done for clearing up mate, although the one my guy showed me was definately the newer style and was one piece so maybe there are a few different variants?

    8P2 S3 Valance and Diffuser

    My friend at audi has just ordered me one, the new style one he has got in is definately 1 piece as i have seen it and lined it up against my 8P2 Sline rear bumper, however i think the older ones might be 2 piece but not 100%

    Did I just experience my first DPF Regen?

    On mine, the engine idles about 5mm higher than usual and you can hear it building up pressure in the exhaust to burn it off. Ive only ever had the dpf light come on once in 30k and that was when i was driving 2 miles a day. If you go on dual carriage ways or a motorway weekly or more then you...

    2013/2014 Audi S3

    I doubt that is the final bodywork for the S3, no skirts, crap looking wheels, fairly standard front and rear bumpers. I think they have just put standard bumpers on it for testing. I dont know why they would spend money developing and using quad pipes on a test model to then not do it on the...
