Don’t forget to fit a symmetrical tread pattern tyre else you’ll have a 50% chance of having to get it reversed in the rim before you can use it if you go for an asymmetric pattern.

The jury is still out on the mpg at the moment, its improved by about 5-6 mpg but I’m expecting that to increase once I calm down playing with the extra power, the recent weather isn’t helping with the roof down and air-con on most of the time which isn’t something I normally do.

No idea on the flash count, it may well increment but so what if it does? It’s my car, I paid for it I deliberately waited until the warrantee expired before playing. In my opinion if you touch the engine/UCU whilst in warrantee and something happens then you have to assume that unless...

Yes, I waited until the warrantee expired then did it to save any issues. Until recently Superchips only did the ECU remap for the 1.6, but they’ve now got some “adapter” that gets fitted to the ECU then you can use the Blue Fin, the main difference being that with the Blue Fin you...

Your ECU will need a little adjustment before the Bluefin will work on the 1.6 TDI. But it’s worth it.

Mytyres?

You could always include your car in the video :sm4:

The driver’s door controller won’t help you as there are four ‘door’ controllers in an A3 cab, the rear ones are only coded to control the windows. If you know somebody with a vagcom I’d get the car scanned for fault codes. Never had the need to open up the rear panelling so...

Cable length was pretty much spot on considering I was guestimating with all the trim in place at the time. With the cable following existing cable runs, so as to use existing mounting clips etc, also leaving a little slack to pull the fittings forward to change bulb I'd say it was fine at...

If you've got a cabriolet you'll know that the single light on the one side isn't really enough. The boot opening isn't particularly large then add in the fact that your own shadow blocks most outside light from reaching the boot means a lot of rummaging around in the dark :ermm: After fitting...

Too true, if I'd have known how useless the ipod connection was when I ordered I'd have gone for the Symphony instead, at least that can play 6 discs of mp3 files with names etc.

Its got good potential I think, my engines still loosening up and as it is the fuel consumption is still improving. Hopefully the chip tuners will have sussed how to get past the security on the engine ECU by the time the warrantee runs out, an extra 25-30hp would be nice and I suspect could...

Found this little gem on VW AUDI Forum - VWAF Shame Audi they didn't release that info until after I bought my 1.6 Cabriolet, I'm only meant to be getting 55 according to this! But that does tie in, depending upon how late for work I am I get between 50 to 60, best ever being 64 when I drove...

If you've got access to a VAGCOM then this might be of use Audi A3 (8P) Parking Aid - Ross-Tech Wiki

Much better, its still on but the volume is now 1 as opposed to 9 and tone is also 1 as opposed to 8!

Cheers both Mike, its a rather nice loan car, an s-line cabriolet so I'm happy to hang onto it :yes: Scott, as its only got 300 miles on the clock, I'll go have a play with the DIS, I have a VAGCOM but was hoping to avoid playing with the dealers car in that respect. I've calmed down a...

Anybody know how to temporarily the parking sensors or least to turn the volume down would be good so nobody else can hear the 'idiot reversing tone'? My cars in with the dealers for a week or so, and the loan one I've got has them fitted. Any help will be very much appreciated.

I see what people mean on the quality of the harnesses, very nice :applaus: fitted mine last night with some LEDS :yes: In case anybody's interested these 501/194/T10 Anti Bulb Warning Xenon White Wide Angle 4 Leds (B) by Ultra Leds U.K LEDS. Whilst not as cheap as some of the ebay ones, they...

Bit of an extreme reaction considering that not all cars come with rear wipers anyway, mine didn't :w00t: I agree I can't see the point to removing it, personally I'd rather have the functionality, if I thought it would fit I'd offer to buy the old one off him :blush:

A Muppet murder scene maybe? That looks like Gonzo skin to me :ermm:
