Does anyone know if the rear diffuser on the S3 is easily removable? I'm after taking mine off to wrap in gloss black. I've searched high and low on here and Google with no answer. I'm hoping it's held on by a few torx screws and not a bumper of job..... Can anyone confirm? It's a 2008 3dr S3. Taa

Recently had my S3 8p taken to stage 2 from Stage 1. I'm just wondering about the figures it has produced and if it is under preforming at all. Torque 320Ibs 315bhp The tuner (which I used for stage 1 and has a good rep in Yorkshire) blamed the fuel I had in (Esso 97) and said to put V Power...

Hi guys, Im wanting to change my alloys on my S3 8p. Ive seen some that I like but unsure if they will fit. There 18" 8J with an offset of 32. They'll be going on 225/40 tyres with standard suspension. Will these fit? Will these cause any rubbing even on standard suspension? Thanks

Hi, I ordered a new MK2 2014 193 G RNS-E UNIT from Germany and it arrived yesterday. Everything thing worked fine as it was just a simple plug and play. But when went to insert the new satnav disc the drive wouldn't accept it. It kept making a clicking sound. Anyway to cut a long story short...

Ive read a few threads on here about connecting the AUX input to the rns-e unit, so id thought id give it ago. Ive already got the AUX installed under the handbrake (looks factory fitted) so I thought it would just need wiring up correctly. Looking at the back of it the person before me had...

Does anybody know the part number for the A/C knob in the S3? Ive attached a pic of what I mean. The plastic top just pulls off and thats the bit I want to replace as the orginal one is a bit scuffed.

Can anybody point me in the right direction for the DRL bulbs so I can change from the yellow ones that are factory fitted.... im wanting the ones so no coding is needed, just a straight swap.
