    Grinding Noise

    Apparently this issue is due a malfunction with the Audi Presense. There is a software update to fix it. Although I still don't know how the presense works, or what part is making the creaking noise. I'm going to tell the dealer. I'll let you know what happens.

    Facelift Panel beaters broke my Matrix headlights

    Absolutely no idea what theyd be doing on the windscreen. Definitely going to follow it up on Monday. Thanks for your advice regarding the calibration. I've never been in an accident before and the insurance company was really pushing to use their own repairer. Live and learn I guess.

    Facelift Virtual cockpit odometer

    This might be a stupid question, but how do I find my odometer reading in the virtual cockpit on S3? I see it flash in the digital speed gauge when I power on the car but it disappears as soon as I start driving.. Any way to view it while driving?

    I contacted APR and they have nothing for the WLTP cars. I don't think we will get anything for a while.

    Anyone picked up a new Audi S3 with OPF filter?

    Res delete won't do it for a lot of us. I'm going to hope for companies to develop a remap quickly so I can fit a new downpipe and remove this ****** filter
