rs3 8v

I know there's numerous threads on brake discs but I can't find any answers. If anyone can help I wanted to know if there'd be any major performance differences between Reyland bolted discs and floating discs, when they're only going to be for road use? Also if there'd be much difference between...

My 2016 Pre-Facelift RS3 with the CZGB engine with 43K miles has started developing an issue when accelerating under full throttle. At 5k rpm there is a noticeable hesitation and sometimes the revs dropping to 4k with the exhaust popping as if the accelerator had been lifted off. When trying...

Hi! What is the difference between RS3 rs sport exhaust and the standard non sport exhaust? Is it just the midpipe with the catback or is the rear box/ muffler also different layout inside?

Hi! I bought an OPF RS3 with standard non sport exhaust. My friend is giving me his rs sport exhaust he took off, from his 2017 rs3 with no opf, as he upgraded his system. Now, can I install my rs sport exhaust on my opf rs3 without any problems that will occur?

Hey All December 2020 I picked up my 2019 RS3 Sportsback, after picking it up I noticed that I was getting a temperature sensor error. Recently I found time to get it on a lift and it seems like both sensors are just zip tied back on the car due to an aftermarket exhaust from the previous...

Hello guys, fingers crossed picking up a rs3 saloon 67 reg this weekend. I previously owned a 2016 s3 and that thing was going through oil like crazy. I wanted to know how everyone checks their oils on their rs3’s, on the s3 i used to get the engine to normal temp and let it sit for around 25...

Anyone tried the Racing Line DSG software on the RS3 FL? I had been looking at the TVS DSG software but this looked interesting. https://www.racingline.com/tcu-dq500 if anyone's got any other recommendations it's much appreciated. I'm currently running Revo stage 2 but I don't think they're...

Hi Everyone - I just had my RS3 8V PFL in for a service at Audi. During the "complementary health check" they've spotted a small patch of oil underneath the engine. They have stated this is a leak from the cylinder head gasket and advise that it should be replaced. They are quoting about £2700...

Hi, I have managed to purchase a CETE active valve controller And I’m wondering if there’s anyone located in the north east England that could help me with the installation. I feel like if I try to install it I will end up breaking the clips on the trim so would prefer someone who has one...

Hi all Finally getting around to upgrading the discs and would like some advice on potentially going for the big brake kit. My initial thoughts were to replace front and rear with just OEM sizes (370mm and 310mm). I'm sure this would still be marked difference over the stock discs, however...

Hi, looking at doing some mods to my PFL car. I already have Milltek secondary decats and lowering springs. I am hoping to head up to MRC once possible, have already emailed but I'm not expecting a response anytime soon. My plan is to try and make the car slightly more engaging, these are the...

Hi everyone Hope everyone and your families are all well in these crazy times! Been flirting with the idea of a new rear ARB for some time and after some extensive research, finally going to take the plunge. It seems either the 034 motorsports / H&R seem to be the ones to get, with the H&R...

Hi all, As the title, I have the above part up for sale. Seeing as they retail for £670+s&h, I’m wanting £350+s&h (£20 due to size and weight with paisley freight). there is an ever so slight mark in the metal weave that goes over the flexipipe to make it pretty, but it’s cosmetic only, not...

Hey all - I'm looking to carry an extra set of wheels on my 2018 RS3 for when I take it to the track. Any ideas on a quality roof platform that won't break the bank? Rhino-Rack offers solutions, but at what seems to me high prices. I saw someone carry 3 wheels on top of an M3 earlier this...

Hey ladies and gents, I'm curious about if anyone has had experience with installing and using tech from FL car into PFL. There was a blue PFL RS3 for sale in UK a while ago that had FL taillights, virtual cockpit and full FL MMI system. Seen few videos of cars in eastern Europe with the same...

Hi all, Interested to get other owner/enthusiast opinion on this. Had my pride and joy (RS3 8v1) just over a year now. Bought it June 2018 with 27500 on the clock and in my opinion really well specced out. Currently car has somewhere around 45000 on clock and I am loving it and planning on...

looking to get some new alloys and a friend is selling his brand new alloys as he’s decided to sell up. His car is rwd and the tyres on it are 35 profile front but 30 profile on rear, I assume this would cause problems on the rs3 with it been 4wd ? Thanks
