I love all of your videos, they were helpful to me since I am driving A3 as well. I vote for not selling it, if I could change your mind. :) Just joking, thank you for great content. One last request if you ran out of ideas for the videos. It is replacing light bulbs on the side and bottom of the door. Also it would be nice to see you replacing high level stop lights. I am having issues with these lights and need to replace them soon. Cheers to you both!

You GOTTA get honeycomb for the fog lights as well. Makes a big difference and makes the front come together. Armrests, if you don't need the comfort of the cushions can be bought in various styles such as Carbon. Dirt cheap and you'll never have cracking again.

I always buy Pagid discs which are zinc coated and so stay nice on the non-contact parts e.g. hub, for ages - about 2-years before they even start to show small signs of rust. Pagid discs/pads also seem to wear well and last for ages.

Damn man you came a long long way, first time i watched your video is when i got my audi a3 (first car) almost at the same time as you got yours, and right now i'm in the process of selling it.

Have you still got the A3? If you do have it maybe do a corrosion protective additive on the rear subframe as it looked like hell on one of your previous videos.

@@matimcfetridge Thing that put me off was hearing that you'd need the rearview mirror/whole windshield. I'm thinking it would work the same if you mounted the sensor on the dash or something?

I have a 2.0tfsi that randomly losses power under hard acceleration. Just doesn't rev up or do anything , if I lift or change gear it goes away. Runs smooth doesn't feel rough or anything. Has been scanned no errors or fault codes. I'm at a loss any ideas? Have replaced spark plugs and coils. Any help appreciated cheers dude.

Hey man I’m not sure if you could help. I’m trying to locate the oil pressure sensor on my 2006 A3 2lt tfsi. I checked the oil pick up that’s fine I checked the oil pump that’s also good. But I keep getting a oil pressure low warming. I would really appreciate your help 👏
