It's the moding bug that bites.
Being around all these nice cars coupled with the gentle encouragement of forum members to spend your money takes an iron will to resist lol!
 
​Its always way more fun spending someone elses money. :) x
 
Haha think the speed is good yet but I'm sure il want it faster sooner so mods it gonna have to be :)

Where in Leeds are you mate? is that a clue in your user name (shafs = shafsbury?)
 
From near Leeds in area called batley and u? Seen as tho you been spending a few bob here and there would you recommend investing in one of them Ross tech vag cables?
 
Definitely, not cheap but then neither is an S3.
I have one and I'm only up the road in Bradford if you need a scan.
 
I know batley, next to birstall got a mate who lives in gildersome (not too far from you). I'm in Leeds 9 (osmonthorpe, wykebeck, holton moor area) about 15 mins from you.

I would recommend ross tech cable and software to anyone, great investment and really does save you money and makes money too when you get to grips with it . I put an ad on gumtree that I would diagnose peoples motors and do other bits with it, doing that has paid for the cable lol
 
That sounds like an idea I been looking into it tbh just been told to stay away just in case I mess the car up if I don't know what am doing and what price am I looking at possibly for one?

To diagnose and clear codes etc you cant ****** owt up. If you go to ross tech website or even on here there is a wealth of information. So far with mine I have reset the throttle body, turned on the auto lock for the doors, done a crash simulation lol, tested abs and so on......... To do that I followed instrustions from ASN ans ross tech.

As for cost I think someone on here will give you the cheepest option or retailler.
 
Sorted im deffo gonna have to buy one
Of these wouldn't mind making some side money :) and I need to look into goin home parking lights cos my car didn't come with any I want to do
Minor tweaks to it yet nowt with the engine till I'm completely bored of the speed which I doubt will e very soon from havin a BMW 318i!
