Golf R here lowered on KW coilovers with The asian garage DCC delete for the last 2 years and close to 100 launches on the street and the drag strip. TAG is well built, well thought out and doesn't use zipties like kw lol
Thanks to the UA-cam algo, some forums, a little Facebook Marketplace, and many prior years with GTIs, I finally brought my 2016 Stage 2 S3 home this weekend. Previous owner made it similar to yours, but kept the original turbo. To say it is a marked upgrade from my MK7 GTI is an understatement. Been fun catching all of your older videos on your car to get acquainted (and sold) on this car.
@@DArias wait until it gets higher mileage and starts burning oil, mine has been doing it for over a year now. doesn't smoke at all but can't make a 5k miles without adding a few quarts. topped it off recently after it only made it 1k miles after my oil change and this time didn't make it to 700 miles. these cars are garbage once you hit 100k miles, ill never buy German garbage again
@@coreytheMFstory Oil separator replace it if it still burns oil take it to a dealer that uses BG products get a dynamic service and a fuel induction service if it hasn't had a carbon cleaning I bet you it'll stop burning oil.
@akasoulz1727 had apr full catch can with pcv kit, my friend knows a guy with his own garage that rebuilds high end engines said Volkswagen and audi are the worst cars for consuming oil stay away from them. My friend mentioned I had an s3 that starting burning oil and smoking said I got rid of it and he said good they are the biggest pieces of shit
I purchased a GTI that came equipped with DCC. I put coilovers on it and paired it with the TAG DCC deletes. It's been 6 months now and I haven't had a problem with them. Highly recommend
Good to see you back Diego. If you're thinking about going coils the kwv1 kit has been night and day vs my 034 spring set up. It comes with dccs cancellers
Hmmmm that’s interesting, you shouldn’t have any wheel spin. Maybe a bit on launch but should hook immediately after a little spin. It’s possible your Haldex pump isn’t working properly
That day was yesterday, is today, and will forever be tomorrow. LOVE it. Glad I came across your channel (due to the MKV, as I have a MKVI). mine has 135k, had it 12 years and just started modding it.........
Hey man, do you mind making another video about the OBDeleven but this time with a pro pack edition and go over the different types of mods to make the better performance wise and other tips and secrets. I have a 2015 Audi S4
@coreytheMFstory that's not what I meant. Mine burns some oil as well, but not as much. I'm at 104k. Had one before that didn't burn a drop. You just happen to have one that's burning a whole lot. Some cars tend to be a black sheep meaning, out of all same exact models, one has to always give more issues than the rest. All being exactly the same model.
Nice video. But you gotta stop saying “this car”. My 9 year old noticed it and now he’s been saying it all night. Makes your video unwatchable after about 5 minutes.

"This car" makes me wanna get a s3 😊
😂
‘17 A3 S-Line here. Intercooler, intake and exhaust with IS38 turbo on a custom ECU + TCU tune. Love it
Will always love this car. One of my favorite Audis on the tube
I appreciate the kind words!

Please don’t get rid of this, I love this car one of my favorites online
Thanks man! It wouldn’t be now probably but would only get rid of it for something better!
@@benclark5261 I ask becouse my clutches slipping
one of my favorite s3 channels on yt, this vid has convinced me to upgrade the turbo on my s3 as well lol.
zero issues with TAG deletes, switched to coils and it SO much better then stock. Even the ride is better. EQT coils for reference
I love this car so much man don’t get rid of it
Not for the near future but I’m sure that I will be getting into something crazier down the line!

Getting mine next weeeeek
Great to hear!
@@DArias Just realized I commented with my work account haha. Anyways. Do you have a car IG? Would love to follow for when I get the car.
U inspired me to go s3 bro
Ever since I did a stage 2 tune my car wheel spins I’m running toyos DSG and Valdez fluid replaced and I’m spinning
Hmmmm that’s interesting, you shouldn’t have any wheel spin. Maybe a bit on launch but should hook immediately after a little spin. It’s possible your Haldex pump isn’t working properly
Never get rid of this car, one day it will be a classic
It’ll be tough but I’d only let it go for something way better !
That day was yesterday, is today, and will forever be tomorrow. LOVE it. Glad I came across your channel (due to the MKV, as I have a MKVI). mine has 135k, had it 12 years and just started modding it.........
Great video series! Considering a 2018 S3 with service records for $24k, has 70,000 miles. Is that too high on mileage?
You can get the newer style headlights it’s just they are expensive af like 1200
Yeah I was looking into that and ironically my passenger side led went out recently which is a common occurrence with these cars lol

Love your car bro! Where did you get your carbon steering wheel from?
Thanks man! And believe it or not it’s a custom wheel from eBay!
What year is it ?
I wish we had e85 in canada
I think there are a few in BC
Im sure there are in some areas but maybe not as easy to find like here in the states
What tire setup do you have currently?
It’s on 245/40/18 continental extremecontact sports
i got my 2019 s3 prestige in early june, i love it but i had to park it the other day due to finding oil in the coolant reservoir.
Just replace the oil cooler on it. Super easy and flush out the coolant system with 2 gallons of coolant and you’ll be just fine! 👍
I own a 16 s3 and the thing is a piece of shit, burns oil but doesn't smoke and add a few quarts between my 5k mile oil changes.
@@coreytheMFstorymight just be yours. Sometimes u get a black sheep out of these
@@LOUCABRASI they are known for burning oil, not s black sheep.

Someone count how many times he says “This Car” 😂💀😵💫
How many launches have the car ~?
A ton lol. Really can’t ballpark a number but I would say over 100 since I’ve owned it
I thought you sold it fs
When will u actually put a big snail on ?? 😅. Its still a baby turbo 😅
Hahaha if I ever pull the trigger to building the engine I’ll def do a full frame on it!
@DArias plenty ttv5 stock motor. Mid low 10s all day apparently
Nice video. But you gotta stop saying “this car”. My 9 year old noticed it and now he’s been saying it all night. Makes your video unwatchable after about 5 minutes.
Thanks man, and I appreciate the feedback! Will def work on dialect going forward. Much appreciated
