Just a bit deaf!!

s3 steering is like nothing I have ever tried before!

I now need a manual as to tell me what the hell everything is. It appears to have 2 choke & only one of
them works!!

Any online operation manuals that anyone knows of?

Yeah - I noticed that. Some bugger jury rigged the 2nd one at some point.
You've also got the enormous fsck off interrupt unit for the rear wiper
trying to remove your right knee.

I also suspect that a S3 is supposed to have a bit bigger steering wheel on
it.

Glad you like it mate!

It's well different. Too cold t have a reall look around it today, but I'll have a good gander about. The
rear wash wpe (useless pile of crap!!) is coming off along with the massive knee ripper relay! I just
can't undertsand the handbrake positioning. I'm 6' 3" & not axactly slightly built, it jabs into my left
calf a treat!

Cant see it bieng very economical!!!

You've probably got a Weber carb. The original choke cable (coming from
steering column) isn't long enough so they come with a replacement to fit
elsewhere. Other than that, I wouldn't think there were enough switches to
justify a manual!!

Enjoy...

The one in the lower dash tray connects to the carb, but does nothing apart make it splutter & die! The
proper one on the console works fine! I'll take the extra one out as it does nothing! Someone has also
fit a rear wash wipe, but the control system & relay are in the daftest place right by your right knee!
Thats coming out too. I also cant work out how to get washer fluid on the windows!

The choke lightswitch is clipped to the cable just inside the engine
bay, follow the choke lead to the bulkhead. They sometimes look like
they are OK but may have come adrift slightly and appear not to work
because the ickle button isn't being pressed.

I'm at Greengates in the morning, can drop you off some Haynes books
of lies if you get the kettle on. A part timer like you will be on
holiday by now won't you?

<mince> I'll bring me Bren
