Re: New S3 vs current RS3

Mines a daily commute. About 19,000 miles now and get about 28mpg and 340 per tank.

Worst in recent memory would be 280 and best 380.

Re: Understeer

have been doing this now too. Was at a football tournament on Fri night and pulling away on a greasy road I floored it and got a perfect drift for about 20 metres up the road. Big smile on my face and loved it! I have the pilot sports on mine and so much better.

Re: RS3 Brake Recall

Flip heading home tonight and car was going really well and handling the slush no worries. Coming down a hill on a dual carriageway (nothing in front) touched the brakes and nothing at all!!! Started pumping and started to get better and then all good but scary. If I needed to stop in an emergency i...

Re: USED RS3

That won't affect warranty at all. I've 17,000 miles on mine now so probably have more than most on here. The car has been the best car I have ever owned and any issues have been very minor. Got rid of the contis but got 12,000 or so out of them. Get 300 miles every tank since the car was about 3 mo...

The reflection in the passenger side (our driver side) looks like a creepy face!

Re: ARB upgrade: Rear only or both?

Trouble is none of us have done it yet so it's impossible to comment. I upgraded the ARBs on the RS6 along with coilovers and it transformed it but can't comment on what your suggestions will do to the RS3 and which will be better.

Re: Indoor swimming pool !

In my RS6 it was due to water getting into the pollen filter via a cracked sill under the windscreen.

Re: What was Monkey talking about?

Improves with age big time. I didn't get over 300 for the first few months. I now never get below 330 and my best was around 365.

I'll go for 340-345 BHP if your car is standard

Re: Winter Protection

Had my RS3 serviced and some of the recall work done at the end of last week. When in I was chatting with the DP who was just back from seeing the new RS6 and 7. He couldn't wait to tell me that when he asked the test driver what car they drove as a daily he said the RS3 and thought it was the most ...

Re: 24hr test - with pics and report

Yep you can bounce the RS3 off the limiter in manual and it won't change, if you drop your speed it will select a lower gear e.g. 1st gear if you slow right down but I guess that's to be expected.

Re: 24hr test - with pics and report

To me the new RS4 looks so much better than the B7 in your last picture. I think the B7 is starting to show it's age and I never liked the front lights. The B5 is more timeless IMHO.

Looks great in the grey, really shows off the arches.

Thanks for sharing.
