    What to get done at 80k service ? S3.

    imported_roydonaldson have you looked at the independent places around glasgow? A4Audi are not far out of town and could be a lot cheaper than Audi Glasgow. I've also seen on some other audi sites people calling up VW and Skoda dealers and using them for the servicing and getting it done much...

    S3 money pit?

    My S3 cost me my license! Though it's possibly a little unfair on the car as it doesn't drive it's self. lol. My car cost me a fair amount to but, over the odds perhaps, but it had silly low milage for the year. csweatherston, can I just ask. How did you find doing your cambelt etc on your...

    S3 electric seat problems

    If your lucky, then it could be the same issue as I had. The up and down movement is stopped by two mircoswitches underneath the seat, if either of these get stuck in then the seat will only move in one direction e.g. If the mircoswitch which stop the seat in the up position gets stuck in...

    Snapped KW tie bar

    NHN, Bars have been on the car less than a year. As for my license, the short answer is I was being silly, to expand on that though, not long after getting the car I was taking some uni mates for a quick spin. Got careless and didn't keep my eye out for police. Got clocked at 103mph and was...

He was parking up on the pavement at his house and the rear of the car slipped off, the angle and lateral force on the bar...

    Official - the X5 is rubbish in snow...

    I took some pleasure in laughing at the news on Monday I think it was. Clip to highlight the driving dangers was of a bmw 5 series estate struggling into it's drive way. As the camera remains on the BMW, a Scooby WRX rolls passed with not trouble at all. Was very funny, well to me at least.
