Apparently very early cars didn't have nav. There can't be much difference, though.Hi just wanted to know if there was any variation between the 2015 and 2016 model RS3 ?

The standard SD Nav is pretty rubbish. Technology Pack with connectivity gives much better functionality and bigger screen. Was an expensive option but well worth it.Nav became std late 2015 and believe model is described as RS3 NAV whereas the Cars registered Before October 2015 were Just Described as RS3
Nope, same lights 2015/16. Changed at FL.Did the 16 models have different tail lights ? They look led like in the facelift but without the sweeping indicators? I could be wrong
Thanks all, all being well I should have bought one tonight. It’s
Nardo grey with black pack
SS seats , Tech pack, folding mirrors, elec seats, reverse camera, Dynamic pack exhaust and suspension.
20k miles.
Be a nice upgrade from my new S3 although I can’t fault the s3 fantastic little car

Is it actually that loud? Wasn’t sure if the sports catback would make a huge difference in loudness. If all goes well I’ll be ordering the secondary decat straight awayVery similar to me, I picked mine up yesterday. 65 plate car with tech, dynamic pack, b&o in Panther Black/black alloys. 11k miles. Didn't have the S/S seats but not the end of the world, rest of the car was far too good a deal to pass up. Enjoy!
The exhaust is honestly one of the most outrageous things I've ever heard. I can't believe Audi got away with fitting it on a road car
If you go for secondary cat delete you'll love it. I have some genuine Audi ones that were on my car for about 500 miles before I changed it...yours for £80!Is it actually that loud?

What did you change too ? And I’ll pm you later onIf you go for secondary cat delete you'll love it. I have some genuine Audi ones that were on my car for about 500 miles before I changed it...yours for £80!
TTRS. Like it. But honestly, it doesn't get close to the noise of a pre facelift RS3.What did you change too ? And I’ll pm you later on
Yeah the Sports Exhaust is super loud, with bypass pipes I think you get a bit more volume and more pops and bangs. I'll eventually buy some but i'm just enjoying it for now.Is it actually that loud?

You can get them from your local Audi dealership. They have to order them in from Germany. I think I was charged about £156 inc vat off the top of my head. I'm selling mine for £80+postage.Yeah the Sports Exhaust is super loud, with bypass pipes I think you get a bit more volume and more pops and bangs.

Incidentally, does anyone know where I can get genuine Audi bypass pipes for PFL?

Easy to fit. I had MRC do it while they had the car in but it's 3 bolts one end and a metal sleeve bracket type thing the other end.Mine is still under warranty so I'm not hugely keen in going into Oxford Audi and buying the pipes in case I ever need to take it in for warranty work. I could go to Tetbury, Newbury or Swindon I guess.
Are they easy to fit? Would you recommend Audi fitting them or will a local exhaust shop be able to do the same job?
Great, thanks. I grew up close to Banbury so might swing by MRC next time I'm thereEasy to fit. I had MRC do it while they had the car in but it's 3 bolts one end and a metal sleeve bracket type thing the other end.
Fair point. The chances of me doing it myself are a square 0% so I'll speak to a local exhaust garage.I honestly wouldn't bother getting MRC to fit it. They charged £74 each time, for fitting and then removing! I only got them to do it because it was easy as I was there for the remap. I'm reliably informed it's easy to do yourself. Alternatively, I'm sure a local garage would do it much cheaper.

I don’t think I could live with another car with drone , my 8P S3 with non-res with constant drone is enough lolPFL sports exhaust here secondary decats and exhaust valves unplugged
Noise..... unbelievably loud. Abit of a drone but no biggie
Order what exactly from Audi pls? Are you talking secondary de-cats?You can get them from your local Audi dealership. They have to order them in from Germany. I think I was charged about £156 inc vat off the top of my head. I'm selling mine for £80+postage.
I hear what your saying mate but there is a much richer exhaust note heard now right through the Rev range, even the slow speed burbles and crackles in second gear are heard as the valves are open.I don’t think I could live with another car with drone , my 8P S3 with non-res with constant drone is enough lol

Sounds like a bargain and thanks mate. Just need to check warranty issues / claims in terms of nulling and voiding itI imagine that is what doc is talking about mate secondary decats pipes. £80 is a Fantastic price mine were £147 with gaskets and new locking nuts from Crewe Audi.

Secondary cat removal will void the engine warranty unfortunately, the FL doesn’t have them.
I’ve know of a claim where Audi said the lack of secondary cats caused a “torque spike” and killed a gearbox.
If it needs to ever go in for a warranty claim simply put the sec cats back in.
Lack of sec cats caused a torque spike ?
Audi really do come out with some ********.Yes that’s the solution and won’t be difficult to do really.
Yep that’s the kind of rubbish Audi spout.

When I took my car in yesterday, the master tech was telling me how the PFL and FL have exactly the same engine. I was just sat there shaking my head.
