    Advice on remapping a high milage A3 2.0 tdi

    I'm slightly in the same boat, my 105k mile PD140 was on the rolling road a few weeks back and made 143BHP at the fly with airfilter and exhaust system so with them figures I figured the engine is in good health for a remap. If your car is well looked after there will be no reason to not remap...

    Downpipe downer BKD TDI

    As NHN said, I done mine on axle stands so know your pain, if you can get another person to put a screwdriver in between the clamp and you hit it with a hammer underneath it should go, bare in mind however there are 3 "sleeves" that all need to be removed from the downpipe in that one clip.

    Has anyone got experience with these bulbs?

    Audi s3 3 door and sportback exhaust difference.

    If you're willing to spend £1000 on a milltek you're best off getting a quote from a company that can custom make exhausts, the welds on millteks aren't great and don't last. And I'd imagine you could use the down pipe off a 3 door, however you'd need to check part numbers of the two downpipes...
