    Hey guys, just a quick question, when turning the car on from cold or warm after leaving the Drive Select mode in Dynamic it starts in D not S?

    Fuel, Performance and Buzzing Noise

    S3 Haldex, DSG & Diff oil change

    Hi all :) Do Audi stealership still change the haldex oil only and not clean the gauze filter? In terms of servicing is there such a thing as a front and rear diff on the 8v that require oil changes? Is 38k okay to wait for DSG oil change or should it be done sooner? Thanks
