    No suspension options in 'individual' drive select?

    It might have been sold with "Audi Sport Suspension" which is a standard feature. My TTRS is the same as yours - sport suspension (not mag ride) and only indirect TPMS - not worried though, it detected a 3 psi drop in tyre pressure and flagged it up.

    Facelift TR Hamza MRC

    Hamza is an influencer - nothing more. He'll simply go to the place that gives him stuff for free (as they all do). Whether there was something wrong with the map/service from infinit is anyone's guess, but he's taken their money/free service for advertisement and he's unlikely to slag them off...

    Revo Stage 2 - incoming

    I don't think it's so much because APR got swallowed up by a big company, but more like that in the USA, the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) has started fining companies that produce tuning parts that would bypass/reduce the "clean features" of cars big sums of money. With APR being an...

    Sportback Reyland brake upgrade (front & rear), size advice

    There's a lot more to it than disc size - pad area, piston sizes, weight distribution etc. are all factors in brake balance. However, I also believe that your suspension will have as much to do with this (if not more) than your brakes. From what you describe, if you had less dive/weight...

    Mirrors forward problem

    Do your have electric folding mirrors and do they go to the normal "open" position when you lock the car? If so, I think what's happened is that when your car has been closed/locked with the mirrors folded in, someone will have manually pulled them back out not realising. They will probably...

    APR Stage 2 and launch control

    Is that "There's no limit on the standard TCU" or "There's no limit on this because it's a stage 2car and the TCU would have been remapped"? Always thought there was a limit but happy to be corrected.

    APR Stage 2 and launch control

    My only thought is there's a chance you might have hit the launch control limit? I think it's limited to something like 200 - if you've not done loads of launch control starts, then ignore all the above lol.

    I did a thing

    Might sound weird this but if I saw this driving down the street, I'd think "Wow, I really like that." However it's not something I'd ever have the balls to do to mine. I class it alongside things like under car neons as stuff I think look really cool but wouldn't do myself (if you see what I...

    Quick Wheel Fitment Question

    Glad they fit - they look quite good on there to be honest.

    Quick Wheel Fitment Question

    I know I've just quoted my own post but reading back, the 1st one has a 45mm offset and the 2nd a 40mm offset. It's only the 40mm offset that is listed to fit the front of the RS3 so if I was going to guess, I'd say they won't fit (but it's definitely a guess). If they don't fit on the front...

    Quick Wheel Fitment Question

    Just had a look at the Team Dynamics website and they list 2 different pro race wheel part numbers for the Golf R, only the 2nd one is listed as fitting the front of the RS3, so I guess it'll be down to it not clearing the calipers... PRO RACE 1.3 5-3-985455112 K 208 B PRO RACE 1.3...

    Best intercooler for 8V?

    It might fit, but is it capable of cooling enough for the RS?

    Unusual Colour RS3

    If you did repaint the mirrors back to body colour, just buy a pair of primered covers and get them painted - much cheaper and you could still sell the silver ones to more than cover the cost.

    Facelift In for an RS3 , but what brakes...

    I'm no expert but I've heard if you're hard on the brakes (IE, track day hard) it's quite easy to ruin carbon ceramic brakes. Don't get me wrong, apparently they're good but if you overheat them, they fail quite quickly. If it were me, I'd stick with the standard calipers that come with the...

    OBDeleven ?

    I've got an OBDEleven and find it fine - Having never used VCDS I can't compare but on my Golf GTI I managed to enable... Fog lights on with main beam Display fan speed with climate control set to auto Also lots of checking and resetting fault codes etc. Dead easy to use although with it...

    Remap needed after fmic?

    Not speaking from experience on the RS3 (but I've done this on other cars) but it should be fine.

    Facelift Sportback Wheel help

    They may but it's unlikely. Manufacturers normally leave way more space than 7mm as on the majority of cars they need to factor in for fitting snow chains so unless your car is prohibited from fitting them (check the manual) I don't reckon you'll have any issues.

    Rs3 8v.2 tuning advice

    From what I've heard, even at stage 1 an intercooler is probably a good idea, especially when it's hotter outside. If/when I go for stage 1, I'll probably go for just a Wagner EVO 1 intercooler (no modding the crashbar etc.) and maybe some form of inlet mods (even if not a full inlet).

    Facelift Looks like my RS3 is still for sale ??

    Don't know if the lighter interior is a less popular choice than the black, which may account for it. I know some will love it but it's definitely not my cup of tea - although probably a lot better to get into when the car's been left on a really hot day though.

    My dealer claims my new RS3 has to be a 19 plate

    I'd be passing that info on to trading standards then - if you think about it, they are attempting to defraud people due to the diminished value of the cars by taking them early.
