I've had my 2007 A3 S-Line DSG since 2007 and didn't post much because I didn't really do much to the car for a long while. Performance wise, didn't feel the need to chip because torque is absolutely fantastic and I just don't drive in an area where I can move in a "spirited" fashion. Too much risk with lousy drivers and cops. Up to now, I've done the following:

• Faux silver satin finish aftermarket side mirror covers
• Euro headlight switch cluster with aluminum ring accent
• Euro tails with amber turn signal
• Enabled rear fog light, driver's side
• Enabled key fob for windows: hold lock--all windows up; hold unlock--all windows down
• Stainless steel pedals & dead-pedal
• Fixed armrest latch issue with magnetic closure
• Replaced rear license plate light sockets (OEM melted) and installed LED lights
• Replaced dated 2007 OEM rims with 2010 OEM rims.
• Rear anti-sway bar

Planned work: Replace front grille (damaged) with blackout style; convert single-DIN to double-DIN; CAI; LED tails; upgrade interior lighting

Nice photos wow. Thx for sharing.

 

[absolutt]

Did you ever have to repaint the front or rear passenger door? The silver paint looks like it has a slightly different shade to it, from one door to the next. I know metallic paint does pose a challenge when repainting, with some colors more difficult than others.

I’ve only owned the car for about a year. But the left rear door and quarter have obviously been repaired at some point, No evidence other then the paint matching. The car will be repainted when the mechanical stuff is done.

Looks nice and good that you got the S-Line package. DSG or manual? What mileage is on it?

Thanks. 65K miles and DSG. Just did the United Motorsports tripple (ECU,DSG and Haldex) tune.....and now at the dealer for the 75K service.

What is the Haldex part of the triple? I assume the ECU and DSG are software tunes.

There's a haldex race controller. You can adjust the split of fwd VS. Rwd

See below From United Motorsports website. Since I am basically a kid at heart....I also added spark cut.

Haldex Performance Software

United Motorsport Haldex software has hundreds of hours of calibration work and custom strategical control. This software is flashed directly into the Haldex control unit, not into the engines ECU; it will work with all engine ECU software and is not transmission specific. The same torque will be transferred whether your vehicle is manual or automatic. Unlike other available controllers It will also work on diesel models. It does not require any external devices to switch mode; this is all taken care of automatically inside our software.

Modes Available:

Performance Mode: When requesting the most performance from your car, our software passes more torque to the rear than ANY other controller. While still retaining drive-ability and keeping with in hardware limits. Performance requested is based on pedal position. The harder you press the pedal, the more torque our software will transfer to the rear.

ECO Mode: While cruising our software decouples any drive to the rear, this creates better fuel economy while cruising. This decreases wear on an expensive non serviceable part. ECO mode is automatically engaged when your car moving along the road at steady speed, the same for throttle position. For Example, if you are driving down the road at a steady 70 mph this will engage ECO mode. At any point, if wheel spin is detected, 4wd will be engaged.

Variable Brake Distribution: While braking the software applies appropriate torque to the rear. This makes the car more stable in a hard braking situation. A MAJOR part of this control is vehicle speed, which prevents any binding of the drive train whilst steering at ANY low speeds (ie trying to park the car). This is also true of left foot braking, unlike stock.
