Lazy to take of the bumper but will definitely will be done when i get a I/C upgrade for stage 2+ just cant decide on which on to get the pro alloy or wagner Sent from my SM-N976B using Tapatalk
Full service at my mates garage did it all my self so easy with right kit Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk
Really?! Sorry I know it’s personal opinion, not my car and each to their own but I think this looks terrible. Too much black all up front. Without any badges it just does make sense...
I’ve got used to this look but decided to put the front plate back on, got some Velcro strap/hooks that are holding it surprisingly well. Just wanted to open up the grille again if that makes sense
That’s what I’m thinking but I can’t be ***** with getting a sticky one and then removing all the sticky stuff from the bumper if I don’t like it
I was thinking of putting the yellow s3 badge on my front grill to suit the one on my rear but unsure about fitment Sent from my SM-N976B using Tapatalk
Fitting the front badges can be abit of a bitch, i loosened the top two bolts ontop of the grill to get my hand down the back. You'll just be able to wiggle the clips behind.
100% you will love it. £25 from Pro Plates, £10 Autoglym Tar and Glue incase you don't like it comes away easy. So much better off the honeycomb, but thats my opinion...
Got any photos bud, as i dont want to put uo that cheap sh!t to bolts and nut style badge on the front as my grill has no mount points for audi badge or s3 badge its just straight honeycomb Sent from my SM-N976B using Tapatalk
Mine are from Stealth Badges, they do them all S3, RS3 etc... Fitment exactly the same as OEM defo not the hideous silver long bolt through eBay ****. The clips on the badges are a little awkward but loosen the top of the grill to get your hand down and should be OK. I changed my red ones for yellow about 2 weeks ago.
New front brembo disc and pads then repainted caliper and while I was there strut black cross member black and back plate. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk
In love with your car man! Exactly how I want my car to look here stateside. Gotta save up to import those parts though!
I've done nearly every mod possible inside and out I'm liking the decals on my roof nice little touch Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk
Fitted my ‘Press clutch to start bypass harness’, along with the new clutch switch that I broke yesterday. It needed changing anyway because of the hanging revs thing so all good . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Whats the hanging rev thing? , and more importantly what that cover with that s3 sticker on your engine i want one Sent from my SM-N976B using Tapatalk
The hanging revs is apparently quite common on EA113 TFSIs and probably on others too. When you go to change gear (on a manual) your revs don’t drop, they ‘hang’. This is caused by a faulty switch/sensor on the clutch master cylinder. It needed changing anyway but I broke the ****** yesterday fitting the bypass harness. Oh, and that’s just the standard valve cover with an S3 sticker. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Where do i find this valve cover ? And yea i saw, was like f*ck i hope that isn't expensive, mines dsg so i guess i dont have to worry about that Sent from my SM-N976B using Tapatalk
Getting new rear discs and pads fitted, I was going to do them having done front discs and pads. But at girlfriend's in Blackpool her company's garage doing instead gets a call got supplied wrong pads good job I decided not to do it on my drive would have been stuffed Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk
Hi @J0N - where does the clutch switch go, is it in the engine bay or off the back of the pedal, sorry I can’t tell from the pic. Did you have a part# handy? I’m to fit my bypass cable so will do the switch at the same time. Cheers!
It’s on the master cylinder mate. The part number for the clutch switch is 1K0927810B The bypass is a great little mod. Easy to fit (if a bit fiddly) and only £25 posted. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Does anyone else’s aircon make a really annoying noise when parked? Sat parked in neutral (manual S3 59 reg) and the AC is so annoyingly loud. Sat at 22degrees C with it on auto and as soon as I tap the AC button (to turn it off) and the noise goes instantly so I’m 100% sure it’s that. Is there a problem with it or have I just got used to driving with the windows open and no climate control on, cheers
late night shenanigans in a parking deck? awesome! a security guard would've stopped us or get a fine from the garage owner if we did that in NJ did you use a base coat or just sprayed the color straight?
Have you got any part numbers for the centre console, wireless charger etc? Looks smart Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
First major failure in 260k miles which to be honest, is to be expected. new camshaft kit fitted cos of this!
Yeah lol. Security ain't bothering with any of that here. Was a paint brush job. Wire brushed the dirt off, rough sanding for a key, wipe down with white spirit, then 3 coats of paint.
