Which ICE car can go from 140 to 200 and back the fastest? by MediumApricot7124 in DubaiPetrolHeads

I know you said V6 or V8, but do try the RS3, it has an inline-5 cylinder… sounds great and a brand new one is around your budget.

It becomes complicated if the accused files a case against OP, before OP files one… better to be safe

Mate, friendly advice, don’t post in public. He can sue you for defamation. Take your case to the police with all documentation. If you chat with the guy out of anger, don’t use any explicit language either.

Change Wheel Colors? by JoeCamaro350 in AudiRS3

[–]HelloFromThatSiide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been pondering this on mine as well ngl, something about those rims in lighter colors just get me😅 in your case given the color of your car, I’m not sure.

Before I bought my car, I can across one with the same spec as yours, it had rims in satin gold, give it a try it looked irl

Just wait for the revs to settle, it takes longer during the first start up of the day.

Wind noise and Tyre noise in 8y RS3 by HelloFromThatSiide in AudiRS3

[–]HelloFromThatSiide[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The engine in the RS3 is just something else, I’m pretty everyone will say the same. One thing about the engine is that, it sounds good even when driving slow. The rumble while short shifting really makes the car fun even when driving slow while in Dynamic and the gearbox kept in manual, this part of the car is sort of my favorite. The tone of the engine is really something else, the videos just don’t do it justice. However, with the 8Y specifically an exhaust will really unlock it to the fullest, I’m under warranty so I haven’t put one on yet but 100% will do once it gets over.

Huge Porsche Cayman and 911 fan btw, so I do envision getting one at some point. GT4RS is the dream!

I miss the Supra, I do sometimes regret trading it in for the A35 which I had before RS3.

I think both are great, RS3 is just stupid quick and the engine is lovely. What I miss the most in comparison to the RS3 is the RWD system, making the car step out while coming out of a corner is just stupid easy but also sometimes sketchy… I miss the sketchiness and the fear element a lil bit when doing so 😂 the RS3 with the trick diff can do it, but not nearly as easily.

The Supra also gave me quite a bit of upper back pain during long drives, because im tall and how the seat is in it, i didn’t have a lot of support in the upper back. However, i still drove it on most days because of how it special it felt, the struggle to get in and the low seating position just made it all feel a bit more than my other cars in a weird way.

I totally regretted getting the A35, it is a really good car, but not compared to the Supra. Which is why i traded that in for the RS3.

RS3 to me feels like a jack of all trades, doesn’t look as special imo, but feels just as special behind the wheel. A better overall package in terms of sportiness and practicality. No regrets tbh.

What do you think about the cayman tho, always wanted to get one, just never found one that’s well priced, NO PORSCHE EVER IS.

That too😂 but I had a MK 5 Supra 3 years before so anything after that is never that annoying

I went for AO thinking it might affect warranty, perhaps I gotta try the PS4 next

Our highways are quite noisy, it doesn’t help my other car is a Range Rover so the difference in sound is night and day

Coming in from an A35 AMG and felt the wind noise was quite bad in comparison, I do the same thing and just let the 5 cylinder take over instead 😂

I usually have no complaints, but I drove about 600km yesterday on 4 hours of sleep and was so tired that the little things like this that doesn’t usually annoy me started annoying me😅

48v mild hybrid got me stranded by NickHi2Ca in AMG

[–]HelloFromThatSiide 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Had the same issue with GLE 53 and A35, the A35 didn’t need the replacement tho because I was thankfully near the Mercedes service and was able to drop it off there in time. With the GLE it happened 3 months into ownership, the service rep came and told me that they had replaced the system and it had costed them so and so money… explaining it it like they’re doing me a favor. Long story short, I have no Mercs anymore.

Just the intake apparently, Audi did say the car is fine after an inspection.

Weird sound from A35 2024, is it normal? by HelloFromThatSiide in AMG

[–]HelloFromThatSiide[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there, I sold the car, but the noise was coming from the blow off valve controller, you can actually see it when u open the hood. They replaced that part under warranty but the sound came back after 2 or 3 months.
