    Is a CAI enough to go stage 2? Or will a downpipe need to be applied?

    Getting bored of stage 1..

    Haha. I clicked on your thread then I realised its bad for my health. But not looking at bigger turbo just want to get around 340bhp and some more torque and a better sounding S3. I've spoken to them they've just said you might get a little more torque but more for of an upgrade if you use...

    Getting bored of stage 1..

    So I've been running a stage 1 map from AMD tuning with a milltek catback on my S3 for 10 months now and seem to be getting bored of the sound and its power delivery. Any advice on where to go next?! Looking into downpipe and decat but reading a lot of mixed reviews on it. Looking at CAI but not...

    S3 Induction Noise - Whine/Whistle

    Mine is a dsg and does this in 5th gear mainly and sometimes in 4th or 6th. Very feint whine and as soon as u let go of the pedal it goes.

    I've got someone coming today with the vcds for the reset but he claims it won't do anything after telling him my symptoms and it can make it worse apparently..

    Hmm. Box was serviced by a local garage upon purchase of the car. Do you know what place does the refurb for 1k including fitting? And lifetime warranty is that supplied by the refurb garage? Thanks

    S3 2010 s tronic reverse problem..

    Ok so today I had the car scanned and to my luck nothing came up. The person also drove it and witnessed the problem in reverse taking long to engage and a clunking noise of it trying to go into the gear and the same back into D. Bizarre to say the least. Apparently it's got to be opened up and...

    S3 2010 s tronic reverse problem..

    It's just done it again twice in the last week. Normal parking or reversing out the driveway and when in R nothing at all :/ it's beginning to wind me up. Had to either switch off or drive forward a bit and try again. Well embarrassing. Not sure what to do now!
