    OBD Port disable by removing fuses

    Ive seen a few other threads/posts on here about disabling the OBD by simply removing 2 fuses, but these are all for the prefacelift S3 not the post 2016 8V. Can anyone tell me which fuses need removing from the S3 8V please? (PM so not to make the info public)

    Hi, I currently have a Revo Stage 1 S3 and I'm looking to go to Stage 2. I've been thinking about this for some time and the one thing I'm concerned about is the life of the engine post-upgrade. What are the chances the extra power is going to break something? I know people have taken theirs...

    S3 Coolant.

    Hi all.. May be a stupid question, but I’m not ‘engine’ minded. I have a MY19 S3, had it from new. Car as just done over the 10k mark and tonight whilst driving, it told me to stop the engine and check the coolant. I did and it’s on minimum, why is this? Or should this be happening to a car...

    Milltek exhaust rear silencer

    Hi can I have people’s thoughts on this rear exhaust silencer.

So when I seen this milltek exhausts at the Autosport International for the golf R...

    PRE-FL Saloon fitted with dynamic lights issue

    So I have been having an issue where I have used plug and play adapters to fit facelift rear lights and when I have done so the sweeping effect of the light does not work, they work as the old ones used to. Any idea what could have went wrong, whether it would be a coding or hardware issue?
