Re: RS3 bootliner and spare wheel

There is a minor issue with the space saver spare wheel. The wheel listed by Audi is exactly the same as was fitted to the S3, however while this fits on the rear of the RS3, due to the size of the brake calipers it will not fit on the front. In otherwords if you have a front puncture, the first thi...

Audi as I am sure you all know dont do mudflaps for the RS3 or the S3 for that matter so I am afraid you will ha...

Re: Spare Wheel Info

Nice find. All A3s from 2011MY (IIRC) onwards come with "Tyre Mobility" as opposed to the spare wheel, and there's no factory option to choose the space saver. It should fit OK. It's not good value to buy the space saver new, quite expensive in fact, so perhaps try to find a breakers yard with an u...

Spare Wheel Info

Some info regarding temporary spare wheels for those that might be interested. As I plan on taking the car to central Europe this year, the thought of traveling that distance with only a can of sealant did not inspire confidence, particularly as these sealant repairs are no use for anything larger t...

Interesting to see these boost curves, while its obvious the Revo upgrade gives a big boost increase in the mid range, its interesting to note that by the time peak revs arrive, the boost has fallen off to the same as a standard S3, namely around 1.1bar which is what my own 225ps S3 registers. Is th...
