Im looking for some info on the different varients of engines fitted in the 3.2s (mine is BUB) Is there any difference between them? How many different ones are there? Is one preferred over the others?

Check the connectors in the boot, and on the new battery you fitted. Mine used to do something very similar - it always seemed to happen on clicking the central locking, dash/clocks/stereo etc would all reset. And it happened a couple of times while driving (with fog lights on when switching...

Hey all My car has developed an intermittent issue in the past 2 weeks I have a 2004 A3 3.2 and often (not always tho) when I exit the car and lock the central locking, I have noticed the climate control unit powers up momentarily - this then causes the dash clock to reset and also resets my...

After 3 months of ownership, my is averaged to around 28 mpg. My commute is only 10 miles (each way) along decent single carriage A-roads. Get used to bumbling around or visiting the petrol pump

I have a 2004 3.2 with 120k miles on the clock and it does exactly the same. I had a vcds scan done and nothing regarding the engine timing came up (the only thing I had was a weak battery and a knackered lambda sensor)

Try one of these - it cured my low volume buzzing/whining issues after fitting a Sony HU into an Audi Bose system. http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/RCA-Noise-Filters-Suppressors-for-Aftermarket-Head-Units-in-Audi-with-BOSE-Amp-/252307253937?nav=SEARCH

I'm confused with all the different options out there, and don't wish to buy something and then find it doesn't fit because a poxy clip is in the wrong place or something silly Will this white rear valance (sportback) fit on my 3 door bumper as pictured ??

Also I have had an issue the past few mornings on the way to work (seems to only happen when the air temp is cold) If I am driving with fogs on and switch headlights to high beam everything cuts out momentarily, before kicking back in and flashing the major Brake System Warning Light.... could...

Hi all So I have had a vcds scan on my A3 3.2 and it has thrown up a few issues... I am however a little confused how to procede now - a few of the things are nominal, and I'm not bothered about, also I have fitted an aftermarket head unit, so I'm assuming that is why that has flagged up. 1...

For the record, I fitted the suppressor as mentioned above by leshkin and it works brilliantly - stopped all my low volume buzzing and ground noise. Much better than the ground loop isolator Worth £20 all day long

Brilliant info thx leshkin I have a GLI already, and whilst it is an improvement, its still not perfect. Has the suppressor removed the whine 100% of the time for you? Plz do let me know how you get on with it after a few weeks use... if it solves the problem it's gotta be worth 20 bucks Thx...

Thx leshkin I have got the wiring figured out - well, no flat battery yet anyway!!! I had the amp connected to the constant power which obviously was going to be a problem, All I am suffering from now is the low volume level whine - any advice on getting rid of that would be appreciated Thx

Previously I had blue into the double yellow connector (which I believe is what sucked my battery dry)

And this what I have done wiring wise Blue is amp power red is switched power Yellow (constant power) and red should go together as my ignition barrel doesn't have ACC position (or so it states in the instruction manual) does that sound correct??? Waiting to see if I get a flat battery again...

Ok so this is what I have coming out the dash board - there is nothing that connects to the thin brown wire

Thx NMN The head unit is a Sony wx gt-90bt and i ebayed a connects2 harness as pictured.. I have wired the bose amp (a blue wire) to another blue wire. Having researched a bit there is a blue/white stripe wire in the bundle from the HU that doesn't connect anywhere - is it possible the amp...

I have fitted a new Sony double din head unit into my 2004 a3 (originally symphony double din/bose) and everything works pretty well (well the rear sub seems a bit muffled/weak but I'm not that bothered) However something somewhere is draining my battery - it was totally flat this morning :-(...

Got it done today. Thx for the advice guys - so glad I didn't have to remove seats and stuff !!

brilliant, sounds easy enough - ill be on it tomorrow. Thx

Yes it is the middle shoulder belt. Can you explain a bit further plz... so I don't need to remove the rear bench seat? Where do I find the retaining bolt you mentioned ?
