Hi guys, i am due a clutch and flywheel replacement and am looking at for a clutch capable of at least 450-500 nm of torque with ease. if you guys could recommend any kits, currently looking at the Sachs kits, unsure if their " Xtrend" kit will cope cant find any torque ratings on it, all...

I got my A3 2.0TDI 170 about 3 months ago, it had done around 75k. It is now on around 80k The dealer advised that the timing belt was due to be done ASAP, and offered to do it for around £300 - I declined as couldn't stretch it at the time. He said it is either due on time or miles, and I...

My car was just in for it's 2nd oil service and I asked for the inspection service and pollen filter (years old now) to be carried out at the same time so I don't need to go back so often. I was very surprised that they advised that the rear brake pads were 70% worn and the disk's need...

Hi all, I bought a 65 Plate A3 this time last year and now the "Inspection Due" warning has come up. When buying the car I was told all the service history was online which, after a quick look online seemed correct, so took their word for it (car was bought from a major car dealer, not Audi...

Car needs an inspection service and brake fluid change. Audi Norwich is quoting £265. Which seems a bit steep. Anyone recommend/have experience with a service center in or around the city?

Hi this is my first post just bought a 61 plate S3, was just wondering if anyone knew the size, or where I can get one, of the jubilee clips for the rubber hose that feeds underneath the follower assembly. (Also ive seen that some of be VAG cars that have this engine has a bolt there instead...

Hi All, As per the title, I would like to create a thread containing all the information needed to make sense of the servicing requirements for the B8's S-tronic gearbox. Many threads exist on the matter which I have spent the last few days reading, unfortunately this has lead to confusion due...

Hi Folks, I am slightly confused so, I thought I'll check it with the most helpful lot first ... I was under the impression that like on A4,5,6 etc the Stronic box on the A3 also needs regular servicing after 38k miles. So, I booked in the car with Oxford Audi today. I just received a call...

Has anyone fitted a Mann Frecious Plus Cabin Filter on their B8? According to ECP website it should fit but the size is just slightly bigger than the other ones available, so not sure if it would fit. Any advice?

Hello there! People stress about changing DSG and Haldex oil (with good reason) however I’ve also seen mention on this forum about servicing the ‘trans box’ and ‘rear diff’. Has anyone else serviced these? (Do Audi claim these are lifetime filled?). Apart from the usual (oil, spark plugs...

How do I view the service history for my 2015 PFL S3? Tried logging onto to myAudi but nothing comes up on there. I've had it a year and had an oil change service back in May and haldex/gearbox oil change when it hit 40k miles. Should I be thinking about a full service? The car doesn't reckon it...

Had an interim service done a few months ago and the guy mentioned I should give him a call when I get to 40k miles as there's a load of things that need to be checked and done. Is that right? Audi S3 PFL.

Hi all, I'm looking for some recommendations for a specialist in the Essex area, I'm in Southend specifically. Just hit 18k on my 2017 S3 so it's first service and inspection time. Southend Audi quoted me £399 so going to look elsewhere. Cheers.

Hi All, Does anyone have a list of parts and quantities that are replaced as part of a major service (40k) I have asked the dealer to send me a list and they have point blank refused.
