s3 8v

Hey, Aside from the sticky which shows some (not all) of the Audi OEM wheels, was there ever a thread which shows peoples set ups in terms of wheels they are running, sizes, offsets and pictures obviously. I did a quick search but couldn’t find such a thread but it might be useful and save...

Afternoon, all. In the process of buying this lovely S3, in Estoril Blue, with only 26,000 miles on the clock, from a good friend. Unfortunately, he is incapable of parking and the alloys are knackered (as per the attached pics) I am going to send them off to be refinished, but before i...

Hi Guys, Anyone on here with the Eibach Pro or a 10 to 15mm drop with spacers. I have 15mm spacers all around current on stock setup. Would there be a problem with me installing springs? like rubbing etc? Would appreciate some advice.

Hey guys, Just a quick question about the quattro options on the individual setting on drive select on my 2018 S3 FL. Does putting quattro into dynamic mean it’s permanently 50/50 front rear distribution (until you lose traction)? So would putting quattro into dynamic be better for when it...

Hello guys, I need help! I’m to purchase a set of Ultraleggeras in 19” for my S3 8V but... I can’t decide the color. Matt or gloss black?? Thank you!! :)

Hi All, First time posting on this. I am looking at swapping the standard S3 grill on my car to the RS3 honeycomb... however I cant seem to find any that have the holes for the Parking Sensors, or the slot for the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC). Preferably I would like to have the Black...

Hey Guys, I wanted to know if anyone currently has a MRC stage 2 setup on their S3. If so I am trying to get some feedback before going down the route myself. I currently have a MTM box but wanted a bit more out of the car. So any feedback would be great. Thanks

Hi everyone! I want to replace my OEM 18” wheels on my S3 Sportback and the ones that I love are the OZ Ultraleggeras. I think the best configuration for me is 19x8,5j but... I don’t know which ET I have to choose... 47? 38? I don’t want to use spacers, so taking the 47 and then not enough? Or...

Hi All, The first post, I've been extensively looking at the various forum posts on here in regards to the resonator delete, with mixed reviews. Some saying too loud, drone etc. I'm looking at getting the BCS Powervalve anti-drone resonator delete system, was just wondering whether those of you...

Right, so i have owned my S3 for just over 3 weeks now, and i absolutely love it! Could not be happier. (had my deposit down on a VW GTI performance but found this beauty at the last second so cancelled the GTI and went for this - probably one of the best decisions i have ever made) Anyway, i...

It's pretty simple but I made a DIY for anyone who is looking to purchase/install EMD Auto's pure carbon spoiler for the S3/A3 models! If you have any questions feel free to ask! Hope this helps.

Need a little bit of help/advice... Engine warning lamp flashed up a wee while ago on my car dash with code P2681 - engine coolant valve stuck open/closed, it’s been super temperamental and has been going on and off randomly with no effect to the car whatsoever, power has been fine and air con...

Hello guys, I need some help. As I read in many threats, I wanted to keep open the exhaust valves all time. I did it via VCDS. First starting the car and put it into dynamic, and then gear to mode S. Then I turned it off and make the change via VCDS. The car sound so much better than before...

Hi Guys! I am relatively new to the Audi-Sport forum so forgive me for posting something which might already have been covered elsewhere! Basically, I am booked in with the local Audi dealership to test drive a 17 plate 8V S3 this weekend and I'm wondering if there is anything current FL...

Hi all, First time poster here. My question is simple, yet apparently Audi Denmark can’t help me out :) Does a rear diffuser (lower part of rear bumper) from a 3 door hatchback fit on a 5 door hatchback (sportback) ? Model is a 2015 8V. Thanks a lot all!

Evening all. As per the thread title, heading down south on Friday to see a car and likely do a deal on an S3 (64 plate, Mythos black, And a spec i am happy with) Moving up from a 57 plate Clio 1.2 with 80k miles on it so I suspect i will like the drive home. The car has full Audi service...

I just followed this video and unplugged the valves on my S3 8V FL. I've been out for a blast in it and really cant tell any difference? Should there be any noticeable difference and is there any way to tell if the valves are in fact open? Cheers

It's well documented on here that I've owned each generation of S3 since I was 19 and I'm 30 next August! Bar a couple of Punto's and a Corsa 1.8 SRI I've not known owned anything else, driven plenty of cars in that time but I've always had an S3. The Hulk is due back end of September next...

Looking around online for intakes, exhausts diffusers etc but some websites will say 1.8/2.0 and others will state only suitable for 2.0. I heard the polo gti has a smaller intake hose than the 1.8 a3 yet they have the same engine. Would a cat back designed for a s3 fit a FWD 1.8 or would the...
