Hi Guys, I'm not a current Audi owner (owned a 2009 A3 8P S-Line with the legendary 1.9TDI until ULEZ screwed me over 🤬 Anyway, I currently own a pre-LCI M135i and compared it to an Audi S3 Saloon running stage 1 and I have to say, as a big RWD fanatic, I was very impressed. I drove a stock Golf R which didn't do much for me but the S3 has swayed me and I'd love to share this with you guys and get your thoughts. I personally love big engines. I love the MK5 R32 and the 3.2 VR6 A3 and of course the RS3 but this comparison has earned a whole new level of respect for 2.0L cars due to the haldex Quattro system. Please check it out and let me know your thoughts! Comment on the video if you can as I'd love some real S3 owners views there - good or bad! Thank you. https://youtu.be/aW411bmKgTM

Have just brought a stage 2 S3 8v with a pops and bangs remap, and miltech exhaust, but it’s way too loud. Anyone have any ideas other than a new remap, to quieten her down a bit? Thanks in advance

Hi all I'm looking into buying an Audi A3/S3 2.0tfsi quattro, 5 door, from around the 2008 mark. I'm planning on tastefully modding and remapping this car and have heard you can reap 310bhp+- from them without any heavy modifications. Looking on auto trader, I've noticed that there seems to be a variation on the power outputs, from what looks to me to be the same engine. So finally, my question is - are the 2.0 tfsi engines in the A3 (200bhp) , A3 - s line (197bhp) , and S3 (263bhp), all the same, meaning they'd produce the same output with a remap? Here are the two I've been looking at: http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/202006270572159?atmobcid=soc3 http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/202006290636074?atmobcid=soc3 Thanks for your time!

Hello, this is my first post so I hope I’m in the right place in the forums for this. Basically I’m going to be viewing a 2014 Audi s3 with 31k miles on the clock. It’s failed it’s last MOT due to having no catalytic converters, but I’m told a new one is being installed upon my arrival. What sort of issues/common problems should I be looking out for? What sort of questions should I be asking the dealer? (Dealer is independent). Should I be taking out warranty if I do purchase? thanks.

Hi guys, first post on here so very much a newbie. I currently have a facelift 2017 Audi S3 with around 4,000 miles on it. I’ve noticed recently that when I put my foot down in sport dynamic, the engine loses power for a second or so causing me to slight jolt forward and then it will accelerate normally. Also when accelerating from a Low gear through the gears in sport mode, agh gear change ‘jerks’ into the next gear. Any ideas? Thanks in advance! Cheers Jack

Bought this today but it’s got no parking sensor brackets so it’s no good to me! Will fit any A3 8P Black surround and rings, also has detachable bar on left that you can stick S3 / RS3 badges too or just have it blank. detachable reg plate holder too! £120 posted! Or I can meet in and around London

Hi there - just got my S3 yesterday - loving it apart from aftermarket Satnav / multimedia which is AN ERISIN fitted by a previous owner. Doesnt sound like all the speakers are wired up and the satnav is crap to be honest. What other options are there on the market and what is the standard Audi unit like? Cheers

Are there any easy to do upgrades that will go nicely on the A3? Looking online and they all look a bit daft, looking for the slightly sportier look without buying the S3 :) model is the tfsi sport. Already got the oem mudflaps to square it off and looks nice, thanks.

Hi Guys, So, I decided to put an aftermarket CAT BACK exhaust on my S3 8V and for 1000 miles it was amazing, truly amazing. Then suddenly, as I was about to embarrass a Vauxhall Corsa on the M1, my amazing S3 turned into a quivering wreck, EPC light on and power seemingly completely off along with the turbo. The sound of the car suddenly became very muffled and quiet. And the famously exquisite DSG !Removed!/ pop on upshift, well that sounded more like my nan plumping the cushions, flat, quiet and void of any substance. I took the car into Audi and they said "its because you put an aftermarket exhaust on it" as the fault codes read "EXHAUST BLOCKAGE", So then I took the car back to the exhaust place and had them replace it with the stock back box. And when I went back for the car the mechanic said, "There is a load of soot and grime in your exhaust right from the engine through to the back box", which was great news. And as a drove away with the car back to stock, the car STILL sounded quieter and did not pop but drove like usual. SOOOO.. I GO BACK TO AUDI, and they said "you have a cracked sump", they replaced that and cleared the fault codes...... 4 days later I pick my car up with no fault codes, a stock exhaust and a new sump and GUESS WHAT???????? The car still sounds RUBBISH. No one could explain the soot in the exhaust other than the Blaise service manager passing it off as "a natural process". I am furious as I have no answers and no clue what to do to make my car sound like it did before, popping and cracking like thunder. I can only think that it is because I drive to work everyday and it takes me 2 minutes, stop start. Am I knackering my engine by not giving it a chance to heat up? I drove it 100 miles yesterday in an attempt to clear out the soot but alas it has made NO difference. Please someone help me and tell me how I can resolve this issue! Thank you, James

audi s3 sportsback Juts ordered 2017 Audi S3 :-D
FrazerDoe posted a topic in New Members Introductions
Hi Guys, I placed my order for the facelift Audi S3 Sportsback over the weekend and mega excited to say the least. I have taken a long time making my decision but I am confident I made the right choice, other contenders were the M135i and Golf R and CLA45 (however this was always a bit more that I wanted to spend) I test drove the current model S3 over the weekend and I cannot wait to get my hands on mine which should be around the middle of November, especially as the performance, sound and cockpit will all be enhanced. Keen to speak with all S3 owners to get tips and experiences. As extras I have gone with the 7 Speed DCT, Virtual cockpit and Navarra blue colour (Keen to see what this looks like in the flesh as I don't think the configurator images does it justice). Look forward to hearing from you. Frazer :) -
