I have a 06 S3 with the later model MY11 rear tail lights. They are simple plug and play rear lights, no coding required. Strange that yours don't work.
I totally didn't read this thread before today haha! I was walking round the show and spotted a few members cars and thought "ah, they've put a stand on"...then I saw the Audi Sport banner on the wall. My S3 was sitting beautifully mucked up in one of the car parks :laugh: looked well anyway...
Dave@remaps yes it does sound like break squeal. Tried to remove the oil cap while the car was running and it wouldn't come off so I thought he pcv valve was ok. Apparently not then?
Aye, I'll pull the oil cap off when the car is running to see if it comes off. I'll possibly message you tomorrow probably to order a new one. I'll maybe grab the DV off you at the weekend.
Hi guys,
A few days ago I started my car ('06 S3 8P). When I started it, the revs fluctuated briefly. This made me think my diverter valve is on it's way out. However, while driving, I get intermittent high pitch squeal. The squeal lasts only a few seconds and it's when the engine is warm. It...
You'll find your limit before you find the car's limit. If you are going in, knowing you're going to get the car sideways, make sure you've plenty of run off. The car will understeer at first but if you give it a sharp turn in followed by some counter steering, the car will do a 4 wheel slide...
Does anyone else get people on the other side of the road flashing them as if to say you've left your high beam on? The headlights are self adjusting and were perfect in my MOT 3 months ago. I must really confuse them when I flash them back with my high beam!
Still haven't warmed to the 8V. I understand Audi tend to go for an understated design but the new S3 does nothing for me. The 8P both facelift and pre facelift have more of a statement than the 8V. I've driven an A1 and I'm not even sold with the minimal centre console. By far, 8P2 is the...
Ok perfect cheers for your help! I may bite the bullet, there's a discount on Revo over here in Northern Ireland as it's the beginning of show season so I want to make sure the car can take it before I do it.
Hi Guys,
I had a chat with one of the guys from Revo yesterday at Dubshed about a simple Stage 1 remap on my 06 S3. He recommended getting a new clutch. I know this is the car's weakpoint but I'm curious to hear others experiences with 300+bhp on a standard clutch?
Cheers,
Alan
Just wanting to see if anyone else shares (or has experienced) the same issue I currently have with my S3. I don't lose sleep over it but I guess it's something that will need replaced at some stage.
The odd time (about once every 20 journeys in the car) my traction control light will flash...
Best I've ever gotten from my S3 is 40.0mpg. This gives me a range of 440miles (although when I filled up on Sunday it gave me 475miles at one stage). I don't think I'm driving it right :laugh:
Hi everyone,
My name is Alan and I have just transitioned from a 2005 Honda Civic Sport to a 06 Sprint Blue S3 8P. Absolutely love the car. As sad as I was to see my Civic go, I owned it for 5 years and needed a change. After being in my best friends 270bhp A3 Sportback S-line I knew I had to...
