Why do you only buy the chavvy German cars? Get a proper sports car!
Subscribed to you yesterday would a tte855 hybrid turbo run on normal fuel on a rs3 8v 2017
9:00 isn't possible to switch it back to circle tachometer? that like two road lanes or what is it is awful
10:10 I don't like very noisy car just standard .. am 41 year old.. little boys do loud sh1t..
Are you from Stratford upon Avon
Hamza bro don’t ever stop this content🤣 came across your channel couple months back when I just wanted to watch Golf R, S3 and RS3 reviews because they are my dream cars. I’ve watched your reviews so many times and can’t get enough of them. My dream one day to own one of these 🚀
Thank you brother I’ll definitely have plenty more to come like this 🙏🏼 Was good to go out for a rip instead of being stuck inside under rust for a change 🤣
5 cylinder noises NEVER get old, even with an OPF🤣
Its so muted compared to the 8V. Its lost the RS3 bark I feel in love with.
Hi mate - great to see u in an 8y. Your videos helped convince me that I need a 5 pot audi in my life. Previously had trusty tuned GTI Pirelli. Considered an M2 but the 5pot sound is where its at. Got my RS3 new a year ago (me in australia) -I went for kyalami sedan with cf pack, sunroof, design pack + blacked out. absolutely loving it every day. Thank you for your no nonsense content - love your work. Looking forward to see what mods/tuning you do to your 8y. Cheers, Tim
Hi Tim, that’s great to hear the videos have helped! You guys get all the cool 8Y options in Australia haha. And thank you! Lots more content to come.
you gotta love that 5 pot sound...😃
The perfect car for british back roads 👌
Been killing it for years
Can’t help but to smile like a little child watching you enjoy this car.
Although I think the 8V gen 1 looked better and has more character.
Your passion for the platform is contagious! This channel is one of the reasons I bought my 7.5 GTI, and probably the reason I will try to get my hands on this platform before they go extinct.
Save travels brother!
Character is subjective, the 8Y drives the rear wheels MUCH better and is much faster on track...period!
@@fzr1000981 character is NOT subjective. If it was the 8P RS3 wouldn’t cost what it costs today brother.
@@madern7? Used values seem pretty normal to me, and I'd much prefer the 8V anyway
Very nice!!! I’ve got a 2016 rs3 sport back complete standard with sport exhaust and you just can’t beat the noise from it … keep up the great content bro 🙌🏻
Add in a cheeky air intake
Congratulations. Fully deserved.
Been subscribed since the cleaning S3 exhaust videos!
Thanks for the continued support mate!
FINALLY someone who agrees with me on the drive train slop on the RS3! I sold mine because it was so bad. It literally felt like it had a broken engine mount. I do a lot of town driving and its HORRID. I am sure in due course someone will iron that out, but for now its just a massive problem for me. Yes show it a B road in RS modes its great and sharp but we dont spend much time driving like that its more like 10% of the time.
Yeah it’s definitely a bad point when driving locally, combined with the lag in the more ‘regular’ modes. Gonna try out a few aftermarket options to see if there’s a remedy. But agreed shouldn’t be a problem to begin with.
@@TRHamza Did you feel the same in the 8R, or is this an RS3 specific issue?
Overreaction...what are you driving now?
This car truly amazes me 🎉
So FUN to see you smile !! congratz on the car.. cant wait to see the scirocco being done ! and if you doing something fun with this car as well... keep up the good work
You can change the RS runway display in the settings! I changed mine to the boomerang type for all driving modes including the RS performance mode.
Dogbone insert makes a massive difference on these, definitely a worthwhile upgrade.
Stunning RS3 congratulations bud👊🏾
Just purchased the same spec, same colour down under here in NZ a month ago! Unfortunately we only get the hatch back here! No sedans in the 8Y available. I also upgraded from a Nardo 8v. Very happy so far with the upgrade. You would love our country roads just made for the RS3 😎
Fellow 8Y owner here. When these cars are warm, if you give it throttle as the car is starting up you get some serious pops and bangs from it.
Do you have the factory performance exhaust?
@@reconbullet5449 yes i do
Nice one mate I did give it a couple blips when trying it then a few times, but I’ll try it after a good drive 👌🏼
@@TRHamza no worries mate. It will do it in any mode, but from a cold start you get the best sound in performance. Enjoy.
I have RS3 carbon sportback 8y with the AUDI sports exhaust, came with the RS pack and carbon ceramics on my car. You are seriously bullshitting mate. Pops and bangs - come on. It'll spit out a little cough and a pop if you rev it after re-starting the engine shortly after being driven, but that's it. My mates 2018 S3 with a stock exhaust sounds better.
Mad whip cuz love watching u❤
You can set performance and then go to the other virtual cockpits in the settings. I do it all the time.
Surprised Hamza didn’t ask them to tune it like the 8V saloon Daza 🤣.. So happy you got this car I’m addicted to this series already. Also what do you use to record POV drives.
🤣 Thought i enjoy it standard for a bit! Glad you’re enjoying the series! I use a GoPro Hero 8 for POV 👍🏼
Bro is a proper Audi guy now 😭 been here since your M2
🤣 Nice one bro, do miss that car at times haha
That steering wheel is HORRENDOUS. There was nothing wrong with the previous gen. I know you can get it on the carbon pack but it should just be standard on all models. The rest of the car is nice.
It’s all the driving sensors that are in it but the flat bottom looks so much better.
@@chroniccrypto75 its only cause of the heated steering wheel isnt it?
I honestly regret even getting tech package, fully stripped down would be how I did it again. With parts shortages, I don’t even get the heated wheel. Or home link. I hate all the sensors, you listen more to car than the radio, now I just wish I had a flat bottomed wheel with a round center airbag
@@nickdubya9924 "I hate all the sensors, you listen more to car than the radio", what do you mean by this? Which sensors are talking to you _that_ much?
@@TwinxuNo, it’s due to the sensors for drive assist. That’s why drive assist versions has this wheel, and non drive assist (non adaptive cruise) have flat bottom.
I prefer VR6 and Audi B7 RS4 V8 content but only because I own both 😅
Still love a 5 cylinder.
Mad to see how much bigger cars have got. The new RS3 Saloon has to be the same size if not a little larger than the B7 RS4 saloon, which is just nuts!
How does the DAZA compare with the B58 ? Reliability/longevity & parts availability?
Lovely car well done, great videos too, only complaint is you've ruined my bank balance,i purchased a 2018 sport back 10 months ago after nearly a yr of looking and absolutely loving it, little trip to mrc planned soon keep up the good work.
Haha thank you! The 2018 cars are fantastic. Much preferred it over the 2020 one I had prior.
9:15 that down shift was fire 🔥
Nice one G. Looking forward to all your future vids bro 👊🏾
I just bought the same car 1 week today and i love it!
Congrats!
Absolutely mega! Really excited to see the RS3 8Y! Looking forward to it
I like the variety of videos. From reviews to rebuilds 👌🏻
Watching cars that are unattainable.. love this car, congrats enjoy it and wish you well.
of all unattainable cars these kind of toys are still very much attainable though. I just got an S3 and it's loads of fun and plenty fast for a very reasonable price.
Love the car. Looking forward to the next videos on this.
9:32 the van driver is back for redemption in the video with Evolve 8Y rs3 hamza 🤣
Good memory 🤣
Agree about the drivetrain slop, very noticeable compared to the 8V. I notice it more now I have more miles on the car. 😕
We need more on the r36 and turbo the r36 rocco
You can change the display even is rs modes, just have to disable the stuff to change from stock display when you get into rs mode
POV drives are the best, may you please make more of these
Yes hamza my g my favourite TH-camr
Legend 🙌🏼
Made me get a 140 & now probably going to make me get one of these 🤣💨 looking forward to see how this tunes
🤣 Gotta try out all the platforms bro 👌🏼
I bought mine a month ago and it is an awesome car mate.
First drive POV stock
Your next POV will be when it is fully modified 800hp machine 🙃😎
Very cool car mate! I saw another video where a guy does some crazy powerslides with his and he claims he was in dynamic mode and not in drift mode. Have you tried that? The video is called „RS3 8Y onboard POV Soundcheck“ and it‘s amazing really. Maybe the coolest 8y video so far.
Yes seen that video it’s awesome! And from what I’ve read on Audis technical document it says dynamic allows for more rear biased driving than performance mode (excluding drift/torque rear mode) so probably was dynamic!
@@TRHamza looking forward to seeing some more footage 😊 awesome car!
Can you see if you can change the steering wheel for a flat bottomed one, with all the same features on it 👍 Great review 👏👏👏
You sure love the 5 cylinders. Do you still have the Volvo t5?
Mine lets the rear out all the time. Its insanely fast. I recently beat a 2023 E63c AMG.
There are settings (I think in the general menu) where you also can change speedo eg the runway (performance) to any other option. Changed that in the first week, so forgot where it was.
Ah nice I’ll check it out, that would be good 👌🏼 So used to 8V where you could change views in the VC itself through steering wheel buttons.
3 options, a child would know how to change them. I switch between the two round dials and the hockey stick all the time. Lets you do it whilst driving. My TTRS, you had to be stationary to change the view. Also customise what else appears around the display as well. Amazing how many people don't know you can change so much in each view.
Hamza do something, you and me both love our VAG Cars, import a VW Jetta GLI from America they such gorgeous cars, shame they dont sell it in UK would be well nice
I would like to try some cars from other markets for sure
Bravo! Great upgrade from the original S3. Lovely car. Wonder why you chose the saloon over the hatch though…?
To be honest that intake sounds pretty good. Would he interesting how much tone of the exhaust will change after 2k km
What a beautiful car.👍😎
I remember ordering this car carbon black with the flat bottom wheel 2 years ago. ended up cancelling it as ordered 9 months before with no build date. Also I sat in it and was disappointed with the interior to the a45s just felt very cheap and boring. Engine is what you pay for I guess love the 5 cyl.
I had an AMG A45s. How on earth can you say that. The RS3 has a much better interior. My missis hated the Merc, kept moaning about the big iPad and the rattles... no such issues with my new RS3 and it feels so much more premium. The only gripe is the B&O, which is pants. Else, handles better, brakes better, is faster, looks a lot better and of course sounds better than the Merc. End of.
Following this one! Currently looking at getting one but love the red RS interior design package in my current TTRS so can’t get my head round the bland interior!
Yeah I’m gonna get a couple bits to spruce it up next video. And also I’ve still got the 8V PFL vents Steve! 🤣👌🏼
@@TRHamza lol those vents wont fit sadly
Your TTRS would get smoked on track, RS3 drive system is vastly superior. The interior comments are completely overblown
TTRS is horrid understeering mess
The interior blah blah
@@fzr1000981lol wow calm down i love the RS3 just don’t like the black interior. I like the TTRS with the RS interior design package. My TTRS has Bilstein B16 adjustable coilovers and eibach front and rear arbs with lightweight wheels .Also its been set up by string theory in the UK plus its 100kg lighter than the RS3 so i think its more than a match don’t you? Not sure why you’re so wound up? I love both cars
Hi man i really like your videos btw i would like to ask you can i be your video editor and thumbnail maker?
Mate what a weapon. Also, if they manage to crack the TCU on that, let us know in a video or something because I've been waiting on 034 cracking the TCU for MK8 R, I believe we have the same box code. :D
Definitely an Eventuri will bring the noise out, can vouch for it 🔥👌🏼😎
What a beast, can't wait to see the mods and tune, really like the spec, lots of support from South Africa brother 💪👍🤝🔥💥👌
Excellent video! Have one on order for the refresh. Not sure if that will be in like 50 years. I also like the CLA AMG 45. Smaller engine but seems more engaging? Anyways, i enjoyed. Thanks!
Awesome car but i think maybe go for the sportback
Surely new platform next b58 s58!!!
If you think the rs3 is so quick you should test drive m3 xdrive. Those things are quick
I’ll just leave this here… Syvecs…. and JDY internals !! 👊💪
Can you put the same size tires on the front on the back?
Don’t like the small wheels on the back looks crap
Bad boy whip cuzzeh
Not only does it look the nuts it sounds the business standard 👍🏻👍🏻. Looking forward seeing you spinning some spanners and rant mate 😂😂
Cheers mate! Yeah thankfully I can avoid the rust element when working on this particular one 🤣👌🏼
how much it cost you these days even with price drop
Gonna wait for the new RS3 so they hopefully improve the interior
You have a long wait. They haven't even got the mid life facelift out yet, which has almost zero changes to the interior. By the way, I own one of these and the interior is excellent. People like you need to actually look at the car and stop basing opinion on TH-cam videos. I had an A45s owner come over and look at my RS at a petrol station - said he considered one, but put off by interior - saw mine, oh shit he says, that's actually really nice. Enough said.
@@luciussander8217 I think I’ll still hold on and wait. Fancy a 2014 R8 V10 Plus though so I’ll see
Nice car Hamza. Im buying one but can’t make a decision hatch vs saloon. What you think?
Saloon is better believe me
How many miles before oil change on stock B58? I do 10k miles a year.
I changed the oil on my rs3 2017 pre opf after just 1000 miles. Makes sense.
Not sure what is going on with your cockpit display but in both performance modes I can switch between all 3 displays
Some cars have software bugs. Mine had problems, had to go back for an update to fix. I'd start the car and it would randomly select all sorts of different modes. Sometimes, would not even let me select performance and failed to remember individual settings. That was from delivery, all fixed with the software update Audi did on the car.
This is a beast 💪
The interior should be better . The rear clutch pack does look like they have made it more exciting now
Interior is excellent. I own one. Try sitting in one instead of commenting on videos.
Nice car hamza bro you think you going get steering wheel wrapped in alcentara be perfect then
Any modifications to exhaust were made? Does it have GPF/OPF filter?
How does it feels while driving it, is it comfortable 😅😅😅😅
Always great video car 🚗 content. Congratulations on new car very nice. Always 7 stars 🎉 reviews great fan of your car reviews
Crazy that a few years later and the ECU and stuff still isnt cracked.
Ecu is. Tcu isn’t
Hello Hamza. I hope your well bro. I purchased a audi rs3 8y today with 15k on the clock hpi clear. I have a problem with it and im reaching out for help. Basically when i put the ignition on a fault comes on saying “ Drive system Malfunction”. Im not sure what the problem really is. The car drives fine and yes i did notice that feeling of the drivetrain just like you did which is a bit annoying. Is there any reason as to why it has come out, please get back to me! Im stressed out 😭
Here for the older cars.
Love the car mate!
still cant get over how hideous the new steering wheel is though🤣
I run in harsh but I do cringe sometimes😂I’m 800 miles now launched it only once felt like it nearly snapped the driveshaft 😂
🤣 They do bite hard on launch. We’ll be fine lol
@@TRHamzasurprised me quite a bit as the old one was definitely softer as you say this launches more like a jap does when mapped in!
Lovely motor Hamza. Congratulations. The steering wheel looks like it's missing something, very skinny looking
Why do people always cut the corner when turning right?
Shit drivers
So bro which on you think is the best engine and has the most tuning potential? DAZA, DNWA or the 8Y one?
At the moment DAZA is still the best for tuning bro, can’t even tune the box on these yet. But from what I’ve seen on Iroz page on their development 8Y they reckon the 8Y platform will be faster eventually due to chassis upgrades. The space for a much bigger tyre up front is one example.
@@TRHamza But the thing that DAZA was front wheel drive biased (less drivetrain loss than the pure quattro) isn’t it the biggest factor why DAZA cars were insane fast at the top end? Or the new drivetrain system you think its going to be even better?
We want that R32 content, Exhaust mod anytime soon?
Are you going to do a OPF delete?
Hamzaaa wea re waiting for the scirocco swap
What a machine 👌
Love it bro 🚀
Curious as I haven't driven one as yet, is there much or none of the torque steer the previous gen had?
Love this channel but am not keen on car content that is so way beyond the means of most mortals, I have a great job that pays well but not the kind of money that means you can go and get something like this. The older stuff is so much more achievable and more importantly relevant to the masses. Keep up the good work buddy
This content is what gets the views in which says his bills.
New wheels for the caddy ????
That's nice brother, but like you i dont like the new dash style.
What are 0-100 and 100-200 times for standard rs3?
Awesome 👍😎
Nice car unc
@TR Hamza
You can change the tachometer style even in RS performance mode.
That runway style one is awful.
Why have they taken away the flat bottom wheel!
Im afraid for 70k it’s NOT a patch on the 8v in terms of sound, power capability and interior trim
Can pick them up for 55k now
