    S3 8L - Rear speakers and sub not working - help please

    Thanks for your help Desertstorm - I nipped to Halfrauds earlier, got some speaker wire and junction boxes and spliced it in from the HU. Rears are working great. No working sub, but I'm nearly 40 and have no need for bass in my life now haha

    S3 8L - Rear speakers and sub not working - help please

    Whatever is simplest really, I was hoping that popping the sub box in would be a plug and play solution, but it seems not. Ideally get the rears working as a minimum. Maybe I'll chin off that sub box and go with your method...

    S3 8L - Rear speakers and sub not working - help please

    Hi Guys, I have a 2001 S3 8L, and my rear speakers and sub dont work. It's all non Bose stuff. So, the original sub had been taken out, and replaced with ... nothing. From what I can gather this sub box has a built in amp that powers the rear speakers - is this correct? Also there is a plug...

    VCDS/VAG-Com - Can it restore factory map?

    Afternoon all, My noggy has just failed MOT on emissions again, the cat is ********, it only went on last year. My mechanic told me last year when he put a fresh one on that it only just scraped though, and he thought that the map that is on it is likely too aggressive with the fuelling. So...

    Y plate S4 estate for £2000? Is this a bargain?

    Hi all, I'm currently in ownership of an 8l S3, but have recently thought I fancy an estate for throwing the mountain bike in. A chap at work has a grey S4 on a Y plate (01), it's done 140k, but I think it is a pretty sound car - not looked over it yet though! anyway, he didn't know a value...

    S3 (AMK) clutch kit suggestions.

    I went for Valeo clutch and solid mass flywheel kit from eurocarparts, think I got a 25% off code or something. Happy with it so far.... AMK too

    Drivers window issue - Help please

    Yeah bargain! Glad it was cheap too. Plus I liked the way Audi designed the door with an unboltable sub frame, made the job a lot easier than when it happened on my Mk 3 Golf!
