I use OBDEleven and change the settings on the brakes. I felt that there was a zone of nothingness when you apply the breaks and nothing happened and then they kicked in making your braking really jerky. Try this. Module Brake 03 Brakes Adaptation Brake booster: factory value set to 4. The lower the value the more firm pedal feel. I set mine to 1 for better feel and firm braking force. Code 25004 Also: Module 03 Brakes Hydraulic brake assistance On track I set mine to not activated. Allows the driver modulate brake pressure progressively. Finally: Module 03 Brakes Adaptation Straight ahead brake stabilization Allows for tire squirm on softer compound semi slicks tires. Factory setting: Activated Set to: Not activated Those settings should improve your brakes on your next track day. I keep the first one all the time I just like the firm pedal feel with no play.

@ryanh3651 Год назад

I have a 2016 S3. On the 3rd engine. The stock IS38 turbo blew the 1st time. That build was 034 stage 2 tune, exhaust, intake, and coilovers. 2nd engine was CTS IS38 turbo, CTS downpipe, 034 stage 2 tune, MQB intercooler, same thing turbo gave out. Now I have IE stage 3 tune and DSG tune. IE intercooler and downpipe. APR HPFP, APR ignition coils, and Garrett GT2260S turbo. So far it's making good power. Everything seems to be working fine this time around. Car is awesome!

@vomErsten 4 года назад

Cooking brakes is a common issue on MQB cars. Even the TTRS cooks its brakes. Also, small correction, the A3/TT are not the only front-biased Audis. The A4 with Ultra is front-biased. The A6 and A7 are also front-biased...yes, even with the V6. Basically, if it's an Audi with a DCT equipped and it isn't an R8 or an A4/A5 Quattro...it's front-biased.

I also like how Blake went with the physical (analog) dashboard.. which is stunning looking BTW, especially in the 2017+ and down the line the analog cluster is much less prone to failure.( The dashboard area is a harsh environment) Also, while the virtual cockpit is cool looking, that special "Feeling" wears off after a little while. The virtual cockpit will also soon be dated in a couple years when Audi releases the next generation of VC, while the good old analog cluster is timeless classic.

@MrAndrewAu 4 года назад

I own the 2017 S3 too. Most of the rattles and buzzes on this car are as a result of the 19 inch wheel, slim profile tires and hard suspension. I plan to increase the thickness of my tires the next time around with 235/40/R19 next time around, and run something like the Bridge Turenza Quiettrack (I don't track the car) to hopefully resolve the rattles. It drives me nuts. Also, if you have pebbles trapped in the car's plastic under tray, they may be rattling and hitting the hit shields when you drive over bumpy roads.

@petert7807 4 года назад

Own and love a 8p a3 quattro S-line with koni yellows. I have driven most dual clutch transmissions on the market and the VW/a3 box has the right blend of aggressive and smooth. Had planned to upgrade to a S4, but the transmission is far more refined and not as fun. But hot tip, buddy of mine runs the vw/Audi dsg fluid in his evo x mr and it now shifts almost as smooth as my 8p, making it my favorite dct after PDK of coarse. People consider the S4 the better car but ill take haldex over true quattro and +500lbs! A3 is a perfect blend of weight, power and wheelbase. A true delight to drive.

@volkssturm9694 2 года назад

100% agree, I just got an almost never driven/very low mileage Audi S3 2018 , and I chose it over the S4 and S5 because of how "tossable" and nimble the S3 chasis is-(perfect size and shape) its pure joy to drive my S3, the S4 steering feels numb and you dont feel as connected to the road as you to with the S3, I agree I love the haldex it handles perfectly fine in the snow and rain, almost no slippage. Also, the S3 is a beautiful car as well, looks better than the S4/S5 IMO

@petert7807 2 года назад

@@volkssturm9694 Yes, it takes a level of maturity to say the "lesser" car is the more fun one. For the great majority of driving enthusiasts who will never actually track their daily driver, the A3/S3 is a superb choice. I even told my friend to cross shop it against the m3/m4 he has his heart set on.

Great review! I have an 2018 S3, love the size, reminds me of my 1999 A4. There's only two things I don't like. 1. No engine temp gauge 2. Exhaust sound. I've never liked the sound of a 4 cylinder exhaust, I've tried over the years, does nothing for me. Mine came with the resonator delete, found a stock one on the Audi forum, it's going on soon. I'd rather have a quiet 4 cyl. exhaust.

@volkssturm9694 2 года назад

interesting, I have a 2018 S3 also , have the resonator delete from factory and I honestly think its one of the best sounding 4 cylinder turbos out there , I love it .No temp gauge I agree is a minor negative.

Very cool videos on the S3 and tuning. I just bought a 2015 A4 Allroad and I've been thinking about an APR Stage I/II tune and various related accessories.

Hey Blake, great video! I recently purchased a 2019 S3 in Glacier White, and have checked our a bunch of your vids. I def appreciate the setups and reviews! Tint then front Splitter are my current priorities. I need to read up more about the warranty and how to stay within it before I look into coilovers and a rear sway. But as they say, pay to play haha.

@BlakesGarage 4 года назад

Basically as far as warranty that wouldn't affect anything but suspension components they can't void the warranty on the engine or anything because you lowered the car unless they can prove that caused the issue. But they can't so mod away. These this are pretty rugged as far as reliability.

@adamc2136 4 года назад

I’ve got a 2016 s3, havent done any mods so far. Thinking about putting a cold air intake on it though, just to help the turbo breath better. The stock intake seems really skinny and I can imagine would restrict the air flow causing the turbo to heat up more than necessary.

Run a front mount and you should be good but honestly heat soak is an issue if you go more power and don’t adress the issue.

@Bigtater113 4 года назад

I have a front mount and it did help with heat soak. I also have a racingline oil cooler and catch can and in Virginia summers (75 mile one way commute) with 90+ temps I've been as low as 207 and as high as 220. Audi says 200-230 is standard temps for the car. Only issue I've had thus far is a valve cover gasket. I don't track mine since I daily it but I live in the country so I do get some twistys here and there after I leave DC. Its super fun, I really enjoy it.

@donteanderson6961 4 года назад

Thank you both, my plan was to run a front mount before stage 2 so I’ll just get the cooling issues out of the way before I add anymore power. Also I don’t daily mine anymore but when I did it would be pretty solid unless I had some back to back quick pulls.

@@susanmiller442 i heard the same, I just picked up a 2018 S3 with just 7K miles. Also, the 2.0T in the S3 does not have all the same internals as the stock 2.0T in the A3, the internals have been upgraded to withstand higher heat and tolerances under load in the S3 . The S3 also has a different combustion ration as well.. Its one hell of an engine thats for sure.
