Yes, bevel box leak. Which can either mean the tranny is stuffed or a seal issue. I’ve had TWO complete DSG gearbox replacements in my Tig which I no longer own. The first was detected at just over...

I could be lucky and find it’s only a seal, won’t know until Audi techs look at the car. Driving it, you wouldn’t know, and the leak is small. See how it pans out. Glad I waited until a full service...
Sorry to hijack this thread again guys but it’s something you Tig owners might need to keep in mind considering they run a version of the DQ500 or even the same, however this DQ500 in the RS3 felt...

Impressive! But I have to draw the line somewhere. Stage 1 tune and E85 is best bang for buck at this point, 404kw is ridiculously fun and cost effective, car runs like it was meant for E85. As much...
APR stage 1 and E85 map mate. Mainly due to proximity of tuners and experience with an identical car running this exact tune and fuel map, and has done since it was new. Seriously impressive and cost...
Just a quick update regarding my 2020 RS3. About a week after agreeing on a deal and getting a contract emailed, I found a very low KLM 2018 RS3 through word of mouth. Just had it’s first service...
Thanks Rexman 👍
I’m pretty excited.
It’s all good, Audi are offering to remove the filter for you but I have already had it organised. Not much can dampen the spirits!
Cheers mate, just got to remove the particulate filter they now come with. Easy fix, and then it’s back to the full goodness 👍
WELL under 100K. First price was $106k! Far out, you have too much money if you buy a car inside a week or cop the first 3 prices. Yeh yeh it’s a prestige car, all the usual BS, people lined up for...
My time is coming to an end on this forum, thanks guys for having me and the advice along the way.
After a week and a half of haggling with 3 different dealerships I have pinned down the best...
Deep down, most have a bit of bogan in us, I immediately thought of a C.I.G locker instead of that expensive flash bit of LSD lol.
Definitely showing my age 😂
Lol, haven’t heard that term in a while 😂
I agree INASNT. My mates RS3 does not have a rattle, at all, in the slow speed downshifts or where mine is apparent. I also test drove a second hand 2017 RS3 a few days back and it too had zero...
My DQ500 got replaced under warranty at 7000klms. It was a rattling piece of junk, VW tried to tell me it was normal so I took it to a specialist and they found a leak at the bevel box. Took it back...
Yep. They will.
Some APR dealers can do TCU tunes, notably 999 and Eurotune in Queensland.
Hoping for and getting are two different things. Yes, you can get an IS38 and tune for approx 5 grand, but what about the bits in the middle and at each end?
These prices are current, as of 2020 APR...
No, I have never stated that, those figures are Stage 3+ and turbo upgrade.
Stage 3 IS38 Tigs on here like Tigger and some of the other boys are seeing low 4’s 0-100. My car is only a Stage 1 with...
I agree with your sentiments regarding not needing the intake upgrade, but only if your not going any further with mods. If your sticking with stage 1 tune and nothing else I would definitely leave...
I’d recommend the APR tune. It’s VERY impressive. It’s been said a lot, but stage 1 gives you an almighty wow factor because the power hike is so profound. The other guys on this forum, Tigger and...
Get a TCU tune. Brilliant gearbox once it’s been tuned and will hold the gears and stop short shifting, and increase your launch control to 4000. Get a tenth or so off your 0-100 times as well. No...
I got an afternoon of driving an FL AMG A45 a few weeks back, which kicked off the new desire. Nice car with low klms, zero mods and they were bending over backwards to offload it. Well under 60k....
As explained by Rexman. My need for an SUV is no longer a must, due to a second vehicle. To get my Tig to the acceleration times I originally planned is around 10k. I love hard acceleration, fast,...
Thanks Davman. Sounds like a proper weapon but it’s not quite what I’m looking for, appreciate the heads up though. You know how it goes, half the fun is progressively modding your car. I’m going to...
