Hi guys this is my first post on here so go easy on me

Yesterday I picked up my first Audi, a 2007 S3, I was hoping to come on here full of excitement about my new car but unfortunately it didn't last long, after driving the car around 20 miles the engine management light came on :-( a quick scan showed the following fault- intake manifold runner flaps exceeded maximum range or something along them lines

Sorry to burden you with questions so soon but is this a common problem, or more to point is it an expensive one to fix?

Thanks

Jamie

FON. Welcome and sorry to hear that. I hope you bought from a dealer with a warranty!

Anyway, I can't really help here other than to say the S3 forum on here is very slow. My wife has one and whenever I've posted about it here it's been like a ghost town.

Hi,
Welcome, sorry to hear your car problems!
I would drop in on audi-sport.net as they seem to have a lot of A3 S3 discussions!
Cheers
Ian
