  • Audi S3 Project update. This car is a much bigger project than I thought! I bought this car from a car auction unseen and it has lots of problems. It is 2007 Audi S3 8P pre-facelift in sprint blue with a 2.0 tfsi turbo petrol engine.

    Big shout out to you Calvin for allowing the viewers and my self to be entertained with these videos , on top of that your doing such a big thing with planet of dreams man . I deffo can't afford an s3 but the fact that you've actually allowed us to own it for FREE baffles my head . Good luck to everyone who's got a ticket , who doesn't want to drop a gear on a manual s3 around birmingham man 🤯

    You might wanna check the A/C controller actually works properly, in particular check you get cold air coming into cabin. A facelift unit will generally not work properly in a pre facelift 8P. It will light up and blow, but the flaps won't engage properly.

    Hi Calvin,
    You should be able to get the outer B pillar trim directly from Audi.
    I had the same issue years ago. Cost under £20 if I remember correctly. Although inflation would have increased the price.

    I'm getting flash backs from when i got my Facelift S3 it developed a missfire on the way back from buying it, I kept driving it as it needed to get home to the Audi specialist in turn resulting in a 5k Forged rebuild and huge new turbo, so the car will be mine now until it dies as i will lose 6k selling it but I love the power and sound big smiles worth every penny!

    Audis are a pain in the arse they hate it when you mess with the engine they start misfiring an getting air locks .I had two petrol ones an they both got the same problem after remapping them the diesel one I had loved it when I remapped it it pulled like a train ..I’d never have a petrol Audi again it put me right off them
