@DjNikGnashers 6 ай бұрын

To be technically correct, it's a Haldex system, which is FWD until the front wheels start to lose traction, then it transfers some power to the rears. In normal driving it's basically FWD. Haldex AWD is not actually ‘proper’ all-wheel drive. AWD systems refer to drivetrains in which all 4 wheels are permanently driven. Due to loss of traction etc, these systems may apportion additional torque to wheels with more traction, sometimes even up to 100% of the torque, leaving certain wheels temporarily un-driven, but their standard setup drives all wheels of the vehicle. For that reason, Haldex is not all-wheel drive, but is instead four-wheel drive (4WD). As Haldex is based on transverse-mounted FWD systems, the default setup for Haldex AWD drives the front wheels only. When wheel-slippage is detected, the Haldex computer systems redirect torque to the rear wheels to compensate for the loss of traction at the front. Upon launching a Haldex-equipped vehicle, power will generally be directed rear-wards for additional grip, however under regular driving circumstances, Haldex equipped vehicles will operate as front-wheel drive only.

Man, this was my dream car growing up. I remember wanting the S3 8L in Imola Yellow when everybody else was wanting an M3 or Kadett TS. I told them, one day Audi would rise to the very top because of their approach to engineering. That golden era was not far off with the late 2000s and early to mid 2010s one of Audi's golden eras IMO. I never got this car, but I did end up with a set of A6s a C5 2.5TDI Avant, and a C6 2.7TDI -as well as a 4.2TDI Q7 - all beautiful vehicles in their own right BUT my dream would be to find an S3 from this generation in good nick - because only then the dream would be fulfilled 😊😎

Now I got a s3 in a great healthy condition. And payed a good price because it has also almost 250k on it... but it's all about how the car were treated and maintained. I got it remapped and a downpipe and it is now making 272hp & 420nm (stock was 221hp/288nm so pretty healthy)

I am missing captions with acceleration times. What's the point of showing 0-100 acceleration with Dragy and not publish the time? 100-200 time is published only in a table where some results are without link to the video so one can't be sure what car was measured. Sorry guys, your content and cars showed on this channel are unique, but to put all the effort to record, measure, edit and upload the video and not add simple captions or Dragy screen capture into it is beyond my understanding. It's also a thing of promotion of Dragy to show the measurement in more detailed way. My Dragy is from your shop too btw.

Had One, a 225 in dark grey, but mine with 290hp was pushing harder then this, so i think maybe the rubber pipes on the intake are collapsing under load restricting the air flow...

Pretty much every VW I've owned gives at least book figures at high mileage, usually more. As the engines loosen up with age they give more power than when they are new or ' tight' which overshadows any slight compression loss that may have occured
