    Squeeky Brakes

    Any one else experienced squeeky brakes with the RS3? Only does it at low speeds (in traffic etc). Its really loud and quite a low pitch. Never had a car with drilled discs - is it something that often happens with those? Cars done less the 1000 miles - could that be a contributing factor...

    My RS3 v Lambourghii Gallardo

    S3 Steering Knock

    Does anyone know what the cause of the steering knock in an S3 is? It's something that my motors had from new, I just thought it was to do with the speed dependant steering. It's become more frequent recently and at my last service a couple of weeks ago, they recommended I have it looked at...

    Courtesy Car

    Took my S3 in for a service today. It was very pleasing when I was handed the keys for the courtesy car - a black RS5. I did ask for something with a DSG box, but wasn't expecting that! Need to return it by 7pm tonight though, and I've been stuck in work all day, arghhh.

    New S3 Owner

    Hey all, Just traded in a Focus ST for spanking new S3. Still running her in but absolutely awesome so far. Not really up for modding at the moment, but always good to hear what other people are up to.
