Hey guys apologies if this has been covered or is really obvious but any help would be much appreciated. I just went for a blast down the local bypass as I haven't given the car a good drive for a long while. The traction control was on, I never really turn it off but after I had put my foot...

Hi all, I have searched a bit for this but havent had much luck. Now I don't think this is a coincidence but the interior light on my S3 doesnt go off as soon as you start the car which I'm sure it used to? Also at I think the same time the electric windows have stopped working completely, no...

Merry christmas to all, not sure if it is snowing for any of you guys too? Just wondered if anyone knew whether you can manually turn the Air Con off but still use blowers/fans? I have seen HI and LO displayed on pics but not sure what this means? I have also witnessed Sandip changing...

Hey guys, Just wanted to hear your views on this. I have had trouble with cars I have owned with brakes juddering sometimes quite violently if at higher speeds/under heavier braking. It is happening on my S3 but the front discs are less than 12months/4000 miles old! I am in process of...

Hey guys, I recently tried to change the clips on my faulty drivers window and tried following guides I have seen but I got stumped once I got as far as taking the subframe off the door. There was a cable I wasnt expecting there and wasnt sure how to disconnect it so due to time I gave in for...

Hey Guys, After seeing examples of how OEM it looks I am interested in fitting the A4 RNS-E head unit into my S3 that has the double din Symphony with 6cd changer. From what I know it is the probably the best starting point in terms of doing this but have a few questions. - Where do people get...

Hey guys, I am hoping to do a few jobs on my S3 (8L BAM) myself like rear discs and pads but I have never jacked the car up before. I have looked and searched the forum but have not found much that explains how to or where they are situated. Can anyone shed any light before I get down to it...

Hey guys! Was just hoping to pick your brains a little. I am concerned about a few problems with my S3 including the drivers door window (common problem think its the clip) and the seal on the roof aerial. The seal is falling apart and just looks a mess and could potentially leak into the...

On way home from work tonight it was obviously baking hot in the Black S3 so thought right lets turn the Air Con on (so took it off econ mode which i think restricts the Air Con correct me?) then it made a weird noise like a little whine then the fans stopped! It seems to keep trying the...

I am thinking of doing an oil service on my S3 but have been thinking about other possible jobs I could do to at the same time. I will be getting the coolant changed soon but I will get that done at a garage. And I did the Air Filter late last year/early this year. Which spark plugs do you guys...

Hi guys, Well this morning I opened my car with the fob fine then got in turned the key to engage the priming of fuel pump for 2 seconds (like I always do) but then as I turn the key to start all the instrument lights/info panels dissapear and not even a click from the engine! Everything seems...

2001 AUDI S3 QUATTRO BLUE on eBay (end time 30-Jan-11 23:12:44 GMT) Not sure if this is a good thing or not but seems a fair price.

Has anyone else experienced this problem? Since the temperature has dropped and it has started to be icey my car on two occasions now the doors just won't open. The handle comes up but it is as if its not connected the door is just solid and still on the catch. The boot opens but I am not going...

Hey guys, I know this has been covered many times but can't quite find the info I need. My window has the common problem of not returning to the top properly sometimes it does but it still doesnt seal to the top so not great when driving so I just don't use it. I'm getting a garage to look...

Hi guys, The list of things to do on my S3 is just getting longer and longer but I have got myself into a spot of bother with money at mo and they will have to wait. I wanna make sure the essentials are done and having done just over 5k miles on the oil thats in it (which was changed by the...

Hi all, I though I had better start a new thread for this one and wanted to test your knowledge as there is some crazy knowledge floating about on these forums! Have got the usual minor S3 :s3addict: problems drivers window not going up properly, rear washer pipe leaking in boot etc but even...
