An Audi S3 should have this stuff. Never understand why all this stuff is an option - HBA, folding mirrors etc. Is the S3 not the 2nd highest in the range before the RS3?
You'd think it would have all the options as standard. You're not missing much with this anyway I never use mine really.
Nice colour of car you have :D, are the headlights not self levelling when you turn the engine on? Mine go up and then they go back down to level themselves.
My 2016 Sline has the red lights on the doors and heated seats but I think Audi started removing that stuff in 2017'ish :(
Didn't know they were removing the red warning lights lol wtf how much does that save them :crying:
Is that not just the rear part of the front wiper intermittent adjustment knob/switch/wheel? No doubt the rear part of the knob will move along with the front part.
The S3 does have the headlight washers but the same LED headlights, probably just a not-required gimmick. Audi would have been better equipping all S3's with something else like folding mirrors. :P
Hello.
Was it a new genuine turbo? I would go back to the garage or where you bought it tbh.
It seems to only be an annoying noise but a brand new turbo 800km on it? I'd be wanting that swapped almost instantly.
My turbo has been rattling for nearly 2 years. Same engine and I have been...
If you have any doubt about using an independent garage (hopefully a VAG/Audi specialist) then go directly to Audi as soon as possible and just pay the higher (and slightly eyewatering) price to settle your own mind.
Not sure why a VAG/Audi specialist wouldn't have the required tools to change...
Sorry what? What exactly did you pay £300 for?
@JaegerStriker I did not buy it yet. I got my wheels refurbished and got MOT soon, not really bothered about the wastegate noise right now. The part number I have is 04E145220. An Audi branch can order it in and it's around £9. You can google that...
Not completely convinced that this rattle is much to do with the COD feature in these engines. Mine (same engine at OP) will happily rattle at 20mph or 30 or 40 or 60 in 2nd or whatever gear for as long as I sit on the accelerator. It will even happily rattle in neutral sitting stationary if I...
Hello. I got a quote of £480.
Audi A3 1.4 TFSI CoD 2016 Facelift.
This includes:
Fitting new timing belt
Fitting new tensioner
Fitting new roller
It's £350 without the tensioner & roller.
They didn't mention the water pump. Should I change that at the same time? and am I getting ripped off...
I am actually surprised that there are not more topics about this. Surely there are thousands of cars having this noise but the majority of thread concern the previous model of A3 pre facelift.
I know it's more annoying than I want to admit. Anywhere I looked it was new turbo time. I did find this: https://www.oemvwshop.com/04e145220-spring-clip-for-turbocharger-note-p235823/#gallery
Unsure if this will help us tbh I have not looked to see if this will fit. it says 8v in this video...
