Hi all, looking at trading my 2010 S3 in for a new 8V but trying to work out some figures has anybody recently ordered an S3 either hatch or Sportback on a 3 year pcp deal? If you have what have Audi set the balloon payment after 3 years? (GMFV or residual value) Thanks in advance!

Had a bit of trouble last night with the car. I booted it from a set of lights and it got to about 50mph and felt like I hit a brick wall, lost all power and no turbo, at first I thought a hose had blew off but the car was struggling to tick over really lumpy and lots of popping. Called the AA...

Just after some opinions from fellow 8P owners on a little dilemma I have gotten myself into... I've ordered a BMW M135i, with the ability to cancel as I just cannot make my mind up. I really like the M135i, I think it looks nice, most don't lol. It gets rave reviews everywhere you look plus...

I've ordered my WMI kit (AEM 30-3000) it's a progressive kit which I've been after, just wanted to to get some ideas where people have mounted their bits. My plan is to have the controller in the glove box, tank and pump in the boot but don't know whether to mount it on some carpeted wood to one...

Does anybody else's alarm go off in heavy rain?? Had this a few times now in the last week, it has to be really heavy and we have had a fair bit of late? If un-lock and re-lock it's fine until the next downpour and the same again. If I double press the lock button when locking it doesn't go...

When loggin on VCDS and it says misfire on cylinder 1 is that the left cylinder when looking from the front of the car?? Got my new coilpack but unsure which side to put it lol

Thought i'd post up my graph from my dyno run. Was a 25-30 degree run and with the haldex disconnect (2WD dyno) In case you cant make it out its: 337bhp @6257rpm 364 ft/lb @3565rpm It's going back in to have the DSG map finished so will make a little bit more power as it will rev to...

Does anyone know when the aluminium end tank intercoolers where standard fit on the S3 if ever. Turns out I only have the plastic end tank variety! I've been informed that I will need the ally tank version to get better power from my 2+ map because the flow of the plastic one is nowhere near...

I've had my milltek on a few weeks but can't help but notice the pipes sit in the recess a lot! Plus they are on the pi55 when u look at them lol. Is this how everyone's look, only reason I never bothered to ask before was my original always sat a bit wonky what do you's think?

Just thought I'd post up about fitting my internals, just need a bit of info. I fitted them on Friday and did the full pump strip an clean as autotech recommend and now it's all back together it seems louder, the pump that is. Now it could be because I've done the work I'm listening too much...

I'm getting a downpipe and de-cat fitted, just wondered if the cat-back is restrictive at all? Most cars I've had didn't benefit from a cat back the downpipe and cats were the main problems? Is the S3 the same?

I'm looking at getting a downpipe either made or milltek. I was considering going an getting the original cat removed out the standard downpipe and fit either a piece of pipe or a sports cat, has any body done this? Does anyone know the standard size of the downpipe? Cheers

Just checked under my oil cap an found this: Now to me that looks pretty bad. What should I do?

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before, sorry if it has but when the car is on boost and between 3-5krpm WOT the turbo makes a flutter sound kind of like the flutter people get when they let off the throttle but this is a continuing noise when on boost, I've got a neu-speed induction kit...

Hi, I'm having trouble with what seems like a wheel out of balance but disappears after a short drive on the motorway. It's been into Audi and they have said its a tyre out of shape. I'm picking up some wheels tomorrow that I will be using for winter tyres this winter, they are 17's but I want...

Does anyone know if these wheels will fit my S3 I presume they are 5x112 but don't know about the offset etc They are off an A4 s-line and are 18" is all I know Thanks guys

I recently changed the number of comfort turn signals from 3 to 4 on my 2010 S3 sportback, tested it whilst in the car and it did 4 indicator blinks. Next time I used the car only 3 blinks happen? I had a look at the adaptions and it still says 4, so I click save again and 4 blinks work, next...

My last car was a 7 speed DSG and now I've got the 6 speed in the S3, when I used to set off fast in the 7 it used to set off soon as I touched the accelerator but in the S3 if I floor it for a quick get away it will bring the revs up and will slip the clutch before it takes off, is this normal...

Hope someone can help me, want to change the fuel filter on my car but can't find a part number. Can someone get me one, it's a 2010 S3 Thanks

I'm pretty sure this is normal but would like the opinions of others please. When I reverse the car off my drive I have to turn in both directions as I come off and I get a knocking noise and can feel it a bit coming through the car is it normal for what I think is the Quattro system to do this...
