Purchased a VCDS cable from NHN and have been having a play with it this evening. On my to do list is to adjust the xenon position as they are pointing too low, but I can't seem to get this to work with VCDS. Following the instructions on the Ross-Tech site (Ross-Tech: VAG-COM: Xenon Headlamp...

Well after having trouble fitting my PCV revamp kit (see other thread) I got it all finished and was about to start the car to test it when I noticed a strong smell of fuel. Looked back under the bonnet and seen fuel leaking from a connection on the HPFP! It's not a small amount either, it's was...

A bit embarrassing having to post about a job that should be dead simple, has anyone that's fitted one had issues getting the blanking cap fitted over the hose connection? I can't for the life of me get the o ring inside the cap to slot over the hose connection, it's just far too tight and I...

Had my Shark stage 3 S3 for nearly a month now and I've noticed that when in Sport mode it will rev all the way to the red line before changing which makes sense, but the peak power seems to be around 6k. Revving further than that feels to actually be slower than changing that bit earlier in...

After driving my newly purchased S3 in the evening into an area with no streetlights I quickly noticed how the headlights are pointing so low it was quite worrying! The car is on lowering springs so it would seem they haven't been set up afterwards unless there's a button on the dash somewhere...

Just put a deposit down on a sprint blue 2009 S3 which I'm going to see on Thursday, very excited as I'm going from a 2.0TDI A3 and have wanted an S3 since I bought that! I was in contact with the garage as the pictures clearly show an induction kit so quizzed them on what modifications had...

A while ago I replaced my front grill for a black one and while doing so you need to remove 3 bolts holding the top of the grill in place (highlighted below) Two of these bolts were stuck solid and instead of unscrewing, whatever is on the underside 'cracked' free so the bolts just spin in...

Car went to a garage for a service on yesterday morning (A 4 Audi in Clydebank) and as I normally do when I put my car in somewhere I note down the mileage on the clock. Picked up the car later that day and drove it home to find that there was an extra 100 miles and the drive home is only 15...

Recently the low coolant light flashed up on my dash which I didn't think much of at the time, just topped it up. Then roughly a week later the light came back on again and sure enough the coolant level was at the bottom of the reservoir. I've not noticed any external leaks, but one thing I...

My A3 has started making a low pitch creaking, almost knocking sound when creeping along in 1st gear. It's alot more audible in reverse for some reason. It seems to have started after I got my AP coilovers fitted, I had new top mounts and new droplinks (standard length) fitted at the same time...

I've been looking for an S-Line spoiler and one came up on eBay which was still attached to the tailgate. I quickly snapped it up and it arrived today, although I can't get the spoiler to budge! I've removed 2 bolts located in the highlighted areas in the picture below but it's still not...

Well this is a rather strange issue, I've just finished fitted my ashtray delete on my 3dr A3 and turned the ignition round to the first click to check the air con all works correctly after being disconnected and the car started?! Thought it might just have been something I did so I took the key...

I've just fitted a new pioneer 8400bt head unit into my 2005 A3, but now I've got it hooked up the radio reception is terrible so some stations I can't even pick up! The original radio uses 2 aerials is seems, one is a fakra the other is coaxial (I think that's what it's called!). The adapter I...

After a few problems I finally got my MFSW to work after installing a new steering ECU (8P0 953 549 F). Now it's thrown up the ESP and power steering warning lights along with having no power steering. I've had the power steering problem after changing the wheel before and it was solved by...

Apologies for another MFSW related thread, but I decided to fit my new steering module ready for when I get the wiring for the wheel. Everything went smoothly and it fitted in nicely as it should. However, after turning the car on the trip computer is stuck at the miles left in the tank reading...

Hi I've just got hold of a S-line MFSW to swap out for my standard S-Line wheel. I've got the new steering module required but what wiring is required to fit it? Obviously there is the need for an extra connector to the wheel so what do I need to buy? I've looked on ebay but cant seem to find...

Sorry if there has been loads of threads on this but for whatever reason my s-line didn't come with one and I'm really struggling to find one (for a reasonable price). My nearest Audi dealers quoted me £250 for an unpainted one!! I'm not so keen on the votex ones, genuine s-line seems to way to...

Since I got a new set of wheels on my 05 Sline Quattro I've been considering lowering it, from searching on here it seems that H&R or Eibach is the way to go but they only seem to do 35mm lowering springs for the quattros which I can't see making much of a difference as the Sline is already...

Hi, I'm looking to get a towbar on my 05 2.0 TDI quattro to transport my motocross bike. To keep the car looking good on weekdays I'm after a detachable one and I do not want to cut the bumper! I've seen a BMW that has a section of the rear bumper which can be removed to fit the tow bar then...

I received a black FK grill today and started removing the screws to take off the bumper when I came across a problem, 2 out of 3 torx screws located under the bonnet on the top of the grill wont come out. They just spin as whatever is on the other side is loose and no matter what angle I tried...
