Does anyone off hand know the INNER diameter of the rad hoses on the S3 ?
I need to know as I am buying a water temp sensor adaptor to fit inline with the hose but can't really check myself until the weekend and I want to get it ordered before then :)
As per the title does the TT flywheel fit the S3 ? I have noticed there are far more single mass options for the TT than there are for the S3 and there are also huge price differences !
Quick question,
although the part number differs slightly can anyone tell me if there is any major issue with running an ibiza cupra MAF in my AMK S3 ?
I have fitted it and it seems to run much better (as my maf was iffy) and the airflow readings on the VCDS log seem right for my map ETC...
I am looking at doing my clutch soon as its starting to slip a bit, I plan to ditch the dual mass flywheel and get a solid one piece one. Anyone got any recommendations or know of any from other cars etc that would fit ?
Cheers in advance folks !
I am now fairy happy that we have the map sorted however I think I have worked out why the airflow readings are still so low.
I have also done a log with the N75 disconnected and its pointing to a weak actuator from what I can see.
Have a look at these logs and see what you all think !

Hey people,
I have reverted back from RNS-D to Symphony but am in the process of trying to get my DIS display to work with the radio again. As this part was done by the previous owner I have been looking over the diagrams etc to figure out what he altered.
I know which wires need checking now...
Well I finally got round to flashing my remap file to my car yesterday and am fairly happy with the results for a first attempt however I think I do have an underlying issue somewhere and hopefully some of you may be able to help.
The flash is a basic stage 1 tune with increased fuelling and...
Just a quick one, does anyone know if its possible to enable the startup test on a 2001 S3 instrument cluster using vag.com like you can on some of the VW cars ? The thing whereby it does a needle sweep when you turn on the ignition is what I am talking about.
Well thats me had her since December now and what with having stuff to fix and all the rubbish weather up here I have not had a chance to clean her properly and get some better photos so tonight I took these :)
There still not the best as were taken with an iPhone 4 in the dark but much better...
Ok, the silly plastic t piece things inside your headlights which attach the levelling motor to the lense are known for being crap and breaking. Its also known that you cannot buy these as spares either.
I just had a conversation with Hella UK and as these light units are made for Audi they are...
Since theres a few topics ongoing the now about what car is best etc etc I thought I would start this for some fun. What cars have you all had and post pics if you have any !

Ok heres the question, I have a known good stage 1 map file for a 2001 AMK engined S3 with Hardware and software numbers that match that of mine since I also have a 2001 AMK Engined S3.
If I flash the map file I have onto my own ECU am I going to have an issue with my immobiliser since the...
After posting a log recently it was pointed out I must have had a slight boost leak so at the weekend I eventually managed to get round to having a good look over the car for the first time since actually buying it back in December !
I fitted my forge 007p and whilst in that area had a good...
Well after my issues with water ingress into both my pass and drivers side footwells I thought I would post this to help others since I have now sorted all of the leaks !!
The weekend after collecting the car I started looking into why the carpets were soaking and found all the usual posts on...
Evening folks, I finally got around to logging the S3 as I have been feeling that its not been performing as it should.
No codes logged at all however I think this log looks a bit odd ? Im suspicious of the boost pressures requested and achieved as well as the airflow. Im calculating that its...
Can anyone recommend a bodyshop/coachworks in the Glasgow area to carry out a small repair on my Noggy S3 ?
Whats wrong is that in the past someone has had a windscreen replaced and the fitter has damaged the paint on the drivers side A-piller and as a result its started to bubble a little...
Hey folks, hoping others with this exhaust setup may be able to clarify something for me....
My S3 is stock apart from the Relentless/XSPower Downpipe and Sport Cat.
I had noticed since picking up the car it had a fairly "tinny" noise from the exhaust coming from around the gearstick area or...

Morning everyone, I have stipped my RNS-D down and discovered the reason it sometimes misreads the disc is that the ribbon cable for the laser is damaged and has a crack through one of the connections.
Does anyone know where I could buy a spare Laser for it as from what I can see the laser &...
Hello all, I have an RNS-D unit I want to install into my 2001 S3
Currently the car has the symphony 1 system with BOSE.
The previous owner had fitted the RNS-D and it was sort of working but not with the BOSE and it had some rather home grown wiring going on too that I was not happy with.
I...
