    Tiguan DSG DQ500 noisy shifts when cold

    I picked up a 2013 Tiguan 4motion tdi. It has the dq500 box in it. when it’s cold, I can hear it clunk when it preselects 3rd gear. I’m guessing this isn’t normal. Box behaves perfectly once warmed up/after a few miles. I changed the oil on the box and it made no difference. Can’t do the...

    Rs3 saloon springs on s3 saloon possible?

    I’m exploring my options to lower the s3 a little bit. It’s far too high and looks gash. it’ll probably ruin the warranty on the dampers but I just hate how high it is. I believe the rs3 saloon sits lower, is this correct? If so, are the dampers the same or different? I guess the rs3 saloon...

    Mmi sms and news when driving

    Strange thing I noticed... I seem to be able to do rather a lot with the mmi when I’m driving. Like I can read the news or go in to phone and read text messages. Is this normal behaviour, or has a previous owner coded video in motion?

    Any benefit to using 98ron on unmapped s3

    I currently put v power or super in my s3 when I fill it up. This is partly habit because I’ve had cars mapped to take advantage of it in the past, and partly because I’m making the assumption that it’s a requirement of an s3. My old m3 used to state 98 minimum on the dashboard. I’ve not seen...

    Star/Asterisk on steering wheel loses function intermittently.

    My programmable Star/asterisk button on steering wheel loses its function intermittently- I have it set to switch drive select modes because I think the drive select button on the dash is in a daft position. Sometimes it works fine, and then other times, it doesn’t do anything and I have to go...

    Hopeful soon new owner... a few questions

    Firstly hi! New to the forum, first post and all that. Have come from the rwd bmw dark side (440bhp 135i) and hoping to find more grip with an Audi! I’m on the hunt for an s3 saloon, facelift with virtual cockpit, super sports seats and preferably b and o. Even better in panther black. Thing...
