    Removal of High Level/Third Brake Light

    Sorry for late reply, No there’s no other clips or anything else that needs removing, I’m guessing it’s just stuck on the rubber gasket, try being quite firm with it.if it breaks you can have the one i took the pic of if needed, you pay shipping but the lights yours if needed.

    Engine management

    As for your eml being on the best thing is a scan as it could be absolutely anything. check out the vcds user map and see if anyone is close to you that could help you out. And for your brakes why not just pull the wheels and have a good look or even strip down and re do the job ?

    Audi A3 8P SportBack Spoiler?

    The genuine spoilers have a stud either side. Some people drill a hole in the tailgate and then treat the bare metal edge, then using nuts and washers plus some tiger seal or equivalent tighten the spoiler down. Some people cut the studs off and just use the sealer to stick it down. The choice...

    S3 8P buying advice

    The facelift was introduced around 2009. You can tell them by the indicators missing from the wings and placed into the mirrors. As for the gearboxes, not sure if they were the same but it’s very important that they have been serviced every 40,000 miles. Hope that helps a little.

    2011 A3 12V switched power in dome light for rearview camera screen

    You can tuck the wiring into the roof lining and run it along into the corner and then down inside the A pillar and straight into the fuse box. Then you can use a piggyback fuse and come off a switched live. It’s the way most of us here have done it.

    Check brake pad light

    There appears to be quite a lip on the discs so maybe would benefit with some new ones. There also seems to be a lot of miles on those pads. I think I'd replace them both and that way you know your all good for the future. it's also a good idea to do it yourself as it's a straight forward job if...

    A3 2012 black edition electric fault

    You won't need that expensive plug, just but the same connectors and re join your broken wires. those connectors are really easy to use and are cheap. If you remove your door card and then your speaker you can pull the loom back through to give you the room to make repairs.
