    New S3 flat spot in power?

    Yeah it doesn't matter which direction you're turning or if you have the wheel turned part or all the way... I notice it pulling into junctions in say 2nd gear as well. It's a very wierd blip!! Hopefully nothing stage 2 + won't be able to sort :)

    New S3 flat spot in power?

    Hi guys, Just got my new Black edition S3 in white last week! It has a flat spot at 1800rpm only when pulling off with the wheels turned (not on lock). It's noticable when pulling out of junctions with the wheel turned and it can be noticed most when driving very calmly up to mildly...

    Haldex Diff Whine?

    I've had this, but am not convinced it was the rear diff since a new one hasn't resolved the issue so thinking it could be the front diff/gearbox... Audi tell me it's just a characteristic, similar to the much louder whining noise you get when driving in 1st gear...

    New tyres for the S3

    Whining noise - Its the wheel bearing right?

    I've had my rear diff done now, it has got rid of the whining at 60 to 70... S3 alex, i do get the noise you're talking about at low speeds in 1st and 2nd but have been told this is just a normal 4wd characteristic... Dave

    After getting the Milltek

    Hi mate, i'll try get some pics up soon. It's got the "special" tail pipes... I wasn't sure i'd like them to start with (this exhaust was the one left over from the JBS group buy so i had no choice on the tip style). I've got a remap from RSD and no cold air induction kit... I'm not sure...

    After getting the Milltek

    Just thought i'd share this with anyone thinking of getting one.. I've had a Resonated TB system fitted to my 2007 S3 and can't believe what a difference it's made.. Since having the car re mapped back near xmas i thought the car was quite jumpy and never smooth even when trying to drive...

    S3 exhaust - value

    Hi guys, I'm getting my Milltek TB fitted this thursday... Just getting a feeler, does anyone want to but my standard S3 exhaust?? I'm guessing this might only be any good to 2.0TQS owners? how much could i sell it for (covered 24000miles)? Cheers, Dave

    Whining noise - Its the wheel bearing right?

    Would be very interested to hear the outcome of this mate. I've had mine (2007 S3 2door) in two dealerships for the same issue, both have come back and said 'yes we can hear the noise but there's nothing up, it's just tyres'. I disagree with this, the noise doesn't change depending on the road...

    I posted up abuot this a while ago... The new Focus RS seems to produce something similar... anyone know whats special about that to give it the sound? From the info i've got so far, the forge parts are the only way to get something similar-ish!... Dave

    Heavy Vibration at 2.2 Thousand Revs

    If it's a Quattro could it be something to do with the prop or drive shaft? After i had my 330diesel beemer mapped with a bit of wear and tear i experienced a judder/vibration under heavy boost, which was early on in the rev range like you've said. It turned out to be either the mounts for...
