Hi mate - great to see u in an 8y. Your videos helped convince me that I need a 5 pot audi in my life. Previously had trusty tuned GTI Pirelli. Considered an M2 but the 5pot sound is where its at. Got my RS3 new a year ago (me in australia) -I went for kyalami sedan with cf pack, sunroof, design pack + blacked out. absolutely loving it every day. Thank you for your no nonsense content - love your work. Looking forward to see what mods/tuning you do to your 8y. Cheers, Tim

Just purchased the same spec, same colour down under here in NZ a month ago! Unfortunately we only get the hatch back here! No sedans in the 8Y available. I also upgraded from a Nardo 8v. Very happy so far with the upgrade. You would love our country roads just made for the RS3 😎

Always great video car 🚗 content. Congratulations on new car very nice. Always 7 stars 🎉 reviews great fan of your car reviews

Bravo! Great upgrade from the original S3. Lovely car. Wonder why you chose the saloon over the hatch though…?

FINALLY someone who agrees with me on the drive train slop on the RS3! I sold mine because it was so bad. It literally felt like it had a broken engine mount. I do a lot of town driving and its HORRID. I am sure in due course someone will iron that out, but for now its just a massive problem for me. Yes show it a B road in RS modes its great and sharp but we dont spend much time driving like that its more like 10% of the time.

Hello Hamza. I hope your well bro. I purchased a audi rs3 8y today with 15k on the clock hpi clear. I have a problem with it and im reaching out for help. Basically when i put the ignition on a fault comes on saying “ Drive system Malfunction”. Im not sure what the problem really is. The car drives fine and yes i did notice that feeling of the drivetrain just like you did which is a bit annoying. Is there any reason as to why it has come out, please get back to me! Im stressed out 😭

Very cool car mate! I saw another video where a guy does some crazy powerslides with his and he claims he was in dynamic mode and not in drift mode. Have you tried that? The video is called „RS3 8Y onboard POV Soundcheck“ and it‘s amazing really. Maybe the coolest 8y video so far.

Ай бұрын

At the moment DAZA is still the best for tuning bro, can’t even tune the box on these yet. But from what I’ve seen on Iroz page on their development 8Y they reckon the 8Y platform will be faster eventually due to chassis upgrades. The space for a much bigger tyre up front is one example.

I remember ordering this car carbon black with the flat bottom wheel 2 years ago. ended up cancelling it as ordered 9 months before with no build date.

I had an AMG A45s. How on earth can you say that. The RS3 has a much better interior. My missis hated the Merc, kept moaning about the big iPad and the rattles... no such issues with my new RS3 and it feels so much more premium. The only gripe is the B&O, which is pants. Else, handles better, brakes better, is faster, looks a lot better and of course sounds better than the Merc. End of.
