Hi, May be worth considering a local hydraulic hose specialist. I work for a company named Pirtek and we regularly replace power steering hoses at our trade counters. Quick google and you should find one local to you. Take the pipe in and see if they can help. If it’s failed on the rubber, often...

A picture speaks a thousand words. We’d use what we call a life saver hose tail (hopefully the pic attached) silver soldered to the Kunifer tube, or you could use a compression fitting on an 8mm standpipe to join any flexi to your tube (not as neat and more joins to deal with I’m afraid). 12mm...

Hi, I don’t know where your based but I’m in Essex and could absolutely help. Oil Cooler, Steering, Brake, fuel and simple oil or water hoses are a daily for my guys at work. Find a Local Pirtek and hopefully they’ll be someone good enough on the trade counter to do whatever you need. Lovely...

Good lads, get a bit of good old debate going but keeping it friendly...ish, just how it should be with no one being a nob about it ;) SS Seats, I’ve had both normal sports seats in an S Line and SS Seats in an S3. You pay your price and make your choice with spec don’t you, simple as that. I...

We’ll, no pics yet cos I just haven’t stopped long enough to grab any. It’s as good a car as my 2016 S3, and then maybe just a little better. Only difference I notice on the inside is the addition of VC (very slick and I love the central dial) and it may we’ll be my imagination but the side...

Screw any haters, get it done. Long plate looks better though, however it’s only my opinion and I refer myself back to my 1st sentence My PP is my name, literally. My wife bought it as a gift and hates it. Wants me to take it off but it’s not happening I refer her back to my 1st sentence too...

Haven’t had to use it in that way yet. My little bro is staying with us at the mo and highlight so far is watching the numpty try to return home quietly in the early hours of the morning totally p’sd! Hilarious watch back. If he wakes the dogs, the wife will bite! I’ve a van not for commercial...

Yep, van blocking mine too and a Ring door bell for the view. Honestly thought they where some kinda gimmick when they first came out, kinda like an iPhone watch “how’s that ever gonna work?” (Can’t live without mine now), however I’m one for turning and I’m well impressed with my Ring

classy reply :tonguewink:

Like I said, contentious;) however by that time my home alarm will be howling. There will have been noisy damage to get in. My Mrs will be screaming (probably at me and trust me, that’ll have the toughest or scum bags heading for the door) and if I am in some way impeded, Mr Butt Head (or Mrs...

New S3 delivered this morning at 9am, autowatch ghost installed this afternoon at 16:00 It’s a really clever bit of kit and a no brainier at 1% of the cars cost. Alarm on the home plus security cameras front and rear to keep the good lady happy and anti-snap locks. Visible steering lock in place...

Mine just got delivered by the very same driver, nice guy named Kev :) Drove it down to the petrol station to fill the tank then straight back home to park it on the drive whilst I went back to work in my van (no pics yet but very happy). I gotta say really pleasant and simple experience from...

When did you order? Price rise came in beginning of April and mine jumped into the higher bracket too after confirming the order 20th March (placed it on the 11th I think but changed the spec to add SS Seats). However I was aware from placing the order this may well be the case. SS Seats put my...

Preparation for the arrival of the new car begins :) Away next week (beer, Sun and...I think it’s food next isn’t it?) but with luck it’ll be waiting for me on my return and I can resume the joys & challenges of Audi ownership again after 17 months away in a fine but plastic & soulless Ford Tank...

Sold my outgoing car yesterday after just a week in autotrader and for a really fair price....a whole £2k more than WBAC and Evans Halshaw offered, both equaled the AT recommended sale! All of them suggested a guide price based on base spec and I knew it was worth much more. Gap between their...
