Have tried this but it seems to be the handle isn’t connected to the cable at all, so won’t even pull the wire.

Went out this morning to try and start my 325d, battery dead. Anyway, got my A3 up close jump cables out and now the bonnet won’t open on my A3. The actual cable it’s self isn’t working, when I pull the handle I can feel nothing happen. It’s like the cable has become detached from the handle...

I'm aware of that, I was wondering is 117k is a lot because I think it's on it's last legs now

My a3 is just about to hit 117k, I'm not sure how it was driven by the previous owner (not well to my knowledge), how long should the standard clutch last before needing a replacement?

Sorry haven't been able to get online the past days as we had new broadband fitted, anyway I replaced the filter and re connected the pipe, some tickover issues at first but then took it for a long drive and its much smoother now, thanks for your suggestions guys.

It disappears under the bottom left of the engine cover so I'll take that off and have a look tomorrow when it's bright out.

I was poking around my engine today whilst checking on oil levels and topping up washer fluid when I noticed a pipe with nothing connected too it (shown above) the pipe with nothing on it comes out of the air box. After a bit more digging I found the black pipe next to it was meant to be...

How difficult are these to wrap yourself? I wrapped some interior bits on mine and have some carbon wrap left so might do the B pillars.

Hi, I know this has probably been asked before but I couldn't find anything in the search. I'm looking at buying a 2007 2.0TDI S-line, the 140 model. Could anyone point me in the right direction of a buyers guide listing different engines/common problems. Also do the higher mileage ones...

So after a long time of debating ive decided in going to go for the 3 doors as it fits my needs practicality wise, I doubt ill have kids for another 7+ years so that wont be an issue for me, and I prefer the longer doors on the 3 door for getting in and out as I quite tall and have a few...

The RS3 does look very very nice in a 5dr. I've seen a few 3 doors with RS3 bits and they look pretty nice, but I think the 5 door is just better proportioned but I'm still very undecided :blink:

I definatley have this problem, especially in the smaller spaces

cheers for that, ill look into doing it later this week

:blink: I've had this car over a year now and didn't know that. The struggles I've been through to get people into the back! Yeah I've always like the roof rails for some reason. Not to keen on the silver ones in the photo but they do look good on the car

I have definitely noticed how difficult the 3 doors are to use, especially with the seats not sliding forwards when you fold them unlike any other 3 door car.

Looking at buying a 2007ish 2.0TDI S-Line a3 (140) towards the end of this year for more MPG and power but cant decide between the 3 door and the 5 door. Anyone know of any notable differences between the two besides the number of doors? pics below of exactly what I'm looking for in 3 and 5 door
