    Facelift RS3 Lowering options

    There’s a purpose for each component, all I’m saying is the sleeve is for vertical movement creaking, there’s just no mechanical connection for these sleeve to have been able to elminate any turning noise... just saying... bottom line, you’re all set, that’s what it counts right? Am really not...

    Facelift RS3 Lowering options

    I totally get what you’re saying too, and I know it’s your experience and understanding, but the sleeve might not have been the cause of your noise neither is my supposedly fix, low speed turning noise could be the top nut not tighten to spec giving the bearing and spring some play and the...

    Facelift RS3 Lowering options

    Not really sure if we’re talking about the same noise, and honestly, that’s really not what these sleeve are for, mine has the sleeve and it’s still making the creaking at low speed turns... but as long as it works for you :)

    Facelift RS3 Lowering options

    Would have to disagree, the sleeve is there as a pre-caution, majority of the lowering springs out there H&R, VWR, 034 etc etc, none of them come with sleeves and not necessarily make any noise at lower speed/standing still when turning, the sleeves are there to eliminate possible VERTICAL...

    Facelift RS3 Lowering options

    I highly doubt that's the reason, but keep us posted if it fixes it? The plastic casing is there to prevent creasing when going over bump etc, but not a certain must... And you're experiencing low speed creasing WHILE turning? My installer did everything correctly and with the rubber sleeve...

    Facelift Eibach springs - knocking sound issue

    Hmmm.. The Eibach distributor said another thing I should try is trimming the front bump stop, I can’t imagine it could be the bump stop but he insisted that’s how he fixed on some with noises... Did anyone trimmed theirs? Really hate to take the whole thing apart again without knowing how...

    Facelift Eibach springs - knocking sound issue

    S3 uses deep groove ball thrust bearing, but RS3 uses plain bearing from TTS/RS. Both of them have indent for fixed location to the strut mount, can’t really misalign them unless being extremely sloppy... It is not the case here, mine was fitted at an VAG specialist, and we made sure...

    Facelift Eibach springs - knocking sound issue

    I'm having the exact same problem, I have S3 with 2018 RS3 suspensions, it didn't make any noise with RS3 springs but started to click/creak at low speed turning as soon as the E10-15-021-13-22 Pro kit were fitted. I then replaced the strut mount and bearings even though they're basically brand...

    Isn't UK one of the cheapest country for cars already???? I paid WAY more than 44k for my S3... RS3 is 80K GBP starting price over here!

    RS3 Beast...

    MTM has 465 ps TTRS, APR is working on Stage 1 but no Stage 2 yet I guess... But hey, for S3, that's what TTE525R is for LOL

    RS3 Beast...

    DSG 7R/S3 should run 13.1... 14 is really a bad launch even for manual? Stage 2 R/S3 should be able to keep up with STOCK RS3 lol

    Facelift RS3 Sportback

    With the new announcement, anyone else think that the FL S3 Sedan/Sportback looks better than FL RS3 Sedan/Sportback? Personally, I think the PFL RS3 is the best looking 8V so far... But I guess we should at least be thankful that it didn't get the fake exhaust treatment as the new SQ5...

    Carbon Fiber Interior Trimming project over at S3 forum..

    As far as I know, they have heat resistant gel coat now that's supposed to withstand heat much better, but I have no idea about the longevity and resistant to yellowing. And I think unlike R8, RS6 etc, RS3 isn't available in some of the larger market yet, like US or even China, so the major...

    Carbon Fiber Interior Trimming project over at S3 forum..

    Hi guys, This is a little project I have going on over at the A3/S3 forum, someone suggested I post it here as well... I never thought of posting here cause I thought all RS3 came with carbon fiber trimming already? But anyway, just in case... This is the history...
