  • Welcome back my abandoned Audi S3 8L to the channel. I bought this car sight unseen after it was abandoned for over 5 years. Today we make a start on cleaning it up to restore it's original shine!

    Love seeing an old car get some tlc.

    Looks good. Take the arch liners off and check behind them as they fill with mud and will rust.

    Great job and so satisfying
    Love the older cars a modern classic I would say.
    I own a 18yr old r32 and I love looking after it and doing the preventive maintenance
    I will keep it forever
    Looking forward to the next stage
    Good luck thank you

    Iron fallout is usually from the cars (and other cars) brake discs. The pads wear the discs down and that’s where it gets embedded in the paint. It’s not usually from the railway as if that was the case, every station would be covered in rust

  • @garymcgregor7048
    @garymcgregor7048 Před měsícem +4

    Could have done with a clay mitt there as well when all the snow foam on. Can feel it taking all the crap out the paint.

  • @sleepercell9926
    @sleepercell9926 Před měsícem

    That was the car to have back when I was a teenager. I loved the flared arches. Very subtle but made the world of difference compared to the standard A3's of the time.

    All cars deserve good owners who will look after them.

  • @jonnyb4271
    @jonnyb4271 Před měsícem +1

    It needs a really good clay bar then machine polish 2-3 stage. Touch the scratches in then machine polish when dry (paint which already has clear coat in) then add a ceramic 👌

  • @TomDavies86
    @TomDavies86 Před měsícem

    Good job Luke. Looks so much better. It’s clear when it comes to detailing you’re stronger here with your skill set. These S3’s were great cars. I had a MK1 Leon Cupra R with the BAM 225 engine lump and they made great cars to have some fun with. Always wanted an S3 with the Quattro but back then when these were still the current cars out, I couldn’t stretch to the S3!

  • @jamesgarrard4361
    @jamesgarrard4361 Před měsícem

    She is a sweet i remeber working on these back when they were new ,my favouret was the blue s3 quattro in ch ,this is when all was just right not too much tech and emissions bs sweet quality some eary ecu software glitches with the begining or early days of p codes and corperate bs, well done buddy

    Could also be the top mounts that noise but if your renewing all the suspension conponents i think your be ok. Also heads up the steering racks of this era are known to be an issue

    Loved my wee Nogaro 8L, a classic looking hot hatch. Got an 8V now which is obviously much better car but it'll never be a classic like the 8L.

    @videoshares Před měsícem

    excellent work there. I know you cleaned the wheel arches, however you need to put it on a ramp, remove the 4 wheels and the 4 wheel arches and give the wheel arches and the body work a good clean. A car like this can use the waxoyl treatment with all the plastics off, surface rust wire brushed, wiped clean with white sprit and then waxoyl sprayed

  • @hayhursts4011

    Gloves Luke!! Wear gloves when using all the products. Good job though!! That was nearly a full decon than a maintenance wash.

  • @BlutoandCo
    @BlutoandCo Před měsícem

    Next time:
    Leave wipers up
    Plates off
    Fuel cap open
    One bucket method fine, as long as you use the actual bucket 😂
    Meguairs wash plus ideal for this
    Tar remover then iron remover.
    Oh, gloves.

  • @chroniccrypto75
    @chroniccrypto75 Před měsícem

    Get some e46 bmw rear push out window motors so you don’t have to do it manually. Push of a button. Did it with my imola yellow 2002 S3. Also paint that grey panel on the rear bumper…. Maybe charcoal cause black would look too much.

    Get some e46 bmw rear push out window motors so you don’t have to do it manually. Push of a button. Did it with my imola yellow 2002 S3. Should snowfoam bottom to top what I was told anyway. Probably 🐂 💩

    • @BlutoandCo
      @BlutoandCo Před měsícem +1

      Gravity.
      Layers.
      With the bottom of the vehicle always being worse, spray bottom, over lap middle, over lap windows etc
      As the chemical runs down your getting more chemical on the worst part of the car.
      Rinse top down
