    Window Issues

    After replacing the passenger window controller, both windows are now out of sync i.e. pressing both switches up a few times, the windows go down. And then, pressing the switches down, the windows go up! One touch doesn’t work either. Does any one know how to go about resolving this, on an Audi...

    Low MPGs on morning starts

    Got a Revo Stage 1 on my Audi S3 (2002) BAM, sometimes I have noticed when accelerating from stand still up to 2000 revs (not thrashing it) before changing gear, there’s an intermitted sudden kick, like a surge of power even though the turbo isn’t fully spooled up. My MPG drops to around...

    VAG-COM Logs

    Hello, I was playing around with my friends vag-com, and I had generated some logs. I was just wondering whether I can get some feedback on your thoughts with the values that were generated. Note, that these values consist of 2nd, 3rd and 4th gears – I’ve just found, and ideally should...

    Is this a reasonable price quote for suspension/bushes?

    Went to www.tcgarage.com to get a price quote on getting a few things replaced, especially suspension + bushes. Do you think this is a reasonble quote which includes spare parts + labour? Note, some of the quotes also included additionals parts, which were not necessary to be replaced.

    Are there any plugs/holes so that it possible to see how much clutch pad is left over? I seem to be suffering from clutch slippage during 5th and 6th gear on a standard Audi S3 52 plate that’s done 55K miles. I’m quite certain that I haven’t totally burnt out my clutch, I only noticed the...
