2018 Audi S3 Maintenance: Keeping the 2.0T Sharp โก
We recently had a 2018 Audi S3 in for some critical maintenance. On the MQB platform (S3, Golf R, GTI), staying ahead of ignition service is the difference between a car that feels “okay” and one that pulls hard to redline. ๐๏ธ๐จ
Ignition Service: Plugs & Coils ๐ฅ
The 2.0T TFSI engine is demanding on ignition components. This S3 received a complete spark plug and coil service to keep it running smoothly.
- Ignition Coils: These were original! We replaced them based on time to prevent future misfires. โณ
- Spark Plugs: Replaced at 22,000 miles.
Our Recommended Intervals:
- Tuned / Performance Software: Every 25,000 miles ๐
- Stock Tuning: Every 35,000 miles ๐
Brake Fluid Service ๐
Don’t ignore your stopping power! We performed a brake fluid flush to remove moisture buildup. Over time, water in the fluid lowers the boiling point and causes a “spongy” pedal feel. A fresh flush restores confidence. โจ
