First service for this Audi RS3 🟢

This Audi RS3 came to us for its first service from new.

We carried out the service using genuine Audi parts, keeping the car’s first service fully warranty compliant with the manufacturer’s requirements.

The digital service record was also updated, so the service is logged correctly on the vehicle’s history.

And the best part? The customer saved up to 50% compared with main dealer pricing, without compromising on genuine parts or manufacturer-compliant servicing.

Replacing your brakes? Why not upgrade them at the same time? 👀🔧

This Mk7.5 Golf GTI was recently treated to a set of VBT hooked rear discs and Mintex Racing pads, a great OEM+ alternative to a standard like-for-like replacement.

The hooked disc design helps clear water and debris from the braking surface, while the Mintex pads provide a performance-focused friction compound. A nice little upgrade without needing to change the original calipers. 👌

And the best bit? The customer ordered everything through our online performance shop, arrived for their fitting appointment and drove away with their new brakes installed. Simple as that!

Take a look at the before and after shots. 😍

13 years ago, two lads opened the doors to a little workshop in St Ives… ❤️🖤

Yesterday marked 13 years since Kelvin and David first opened Quattro-Tech, and what a journey it's been since!

From those early days getting the St Ives workshop up and running, hosting our first Revo events and seeing our name in the local paper, to opening Peterborough, Cambridge and, most recently, Bury St Edmunds.

It's fair to say a lot has changed over the years! 😂

Looking back through some of these old photos has been a brilliant reminder of where it all started. The workshops have changed, the team has grown and the business has become something much bigger than those two probably imagined when they first started out.

But one thing hasn't changed – the people behind it all.

From those who've been with us since the early days to the many new faces who've joined along the way, every single person has played a part in getting Quattro-Tech to where it is today.

And of course, a huge thank you to our customers. Whether you've been trusting us with your vehicles for all 13 years or you've only recently discovered us, your support has made this journey possible.

13 years, four service sites and plenty of memories along the way. And we're certainly not finished yet! 🙌

Here's to Kelvin, David and everyone who's been part of the journey.

Happy 13th birthday, Quattro-Tech! 🎂🥳

Have a flick through the photos and take a trip down memory lane with us. You might even recognise a few familiar (and slightly younger!) faces… 👀

Turns out the competition doesn't stop when the workshop closes… 🏎️💨

The QT Peterborough team swapped the tools for steering wheels and enjoyed a bit of after-work sim racing!

Plenty of laughs, a bit of friendly rivalry and, as you'd expect from a workshop full of car enthusiasts, nobody wanted to finish last. 😂🏁

Good to get the team together outside of the workshop for some well-earned downtime!

Same competitive spirit, just fewer cars to fix afterwards… 👀

This Audi RS3 was in with us for a service and inspection, so we got it freshened up with genuine spark plugs, engine oil and an oil filter.

We always use genuine parts where specified, especially on cars like this. It’s all part of keeping the car running properly and giving it the service it deserves.

Another RS3 back out and ready to go. 🔧

This isn’t quite the same 2.0 TFSI you got in a normal Mk5 GTI… 👀

We had this absolutely immaculate Mk5 Golf GTI Edition 30 in the workshop recently, and it was far too clean not to get a few photos while it was here. 😍

Created to celebrate 30 years of the Golf GTI, the Edition 30 left the factory with 230PS – 30PS more than the standard Mk5 GTI.

But VW didn’t simply turn the boost up.

One of the lesser-known things that makes the Edition 30 special is the hardware underneath. Its 2.0 TFSI uses uprated components closely related to those found in cars such as the Mk2 Audi S3, giving it considerably more tuning potential than the regular 200PS GTI. It’s one of the reasons Edition 30s have become so sought-after by VW enthusiasts.

This particular example wasn’t with us for more power, though. It came in for a thermostat replacement. 🔧

The thermostat regulates coolant flow through the engine and radiator, helping the engine reach and maintain its correct operating temperature. When one starts to fail, you might notice the engine taking longer than usual to warm up, the temperature dropping during a journey or inconsistent temperature readings.

On a car this well kept, preventative maintenance and putting things right as issues arise is exactly how you keep it that way.

Coilovers on a T6.1 aren’t just about getting it closer to the ground… 👀

This VW T6.1 Transporter was recently in with us for a set of Bilstein coilovers, followed by a full wheel alignment to get everything set up correctly.

There’s no denying the lower stance completely changes the look of a Transporter, especially when it’s sitting on a good set of wheels. But a quality suspension setup is about more than just reducing that arch gap.

Bilstein have been developing suspension for decades, and their coilover setups combine matched springs and dampers with adjustable ride height – allowing the van’s stance to be dialled in rather than simply fitting a fixed lowering spring. 🔧

And once you’ve changed the ride height, there’s another important job to do…

Wheel alignment.

Lowering a T6.1 changes the suspension geometry, which can alter settings such as toe and potentially lead to uneven tyre wear, an off-centre steering wheel or a van that simply doesn’t feel quite right on the road.

So after fitting the Bilsteins and setting the ride height, this one went straight onto our four-wheel alignment equipment to check the geometry and make the necessary adjustments. 👌

Turns out the ID. Buzz can look even better sitting a little closer to the ground… 👀⚡

The ID. Buzz is already one of the most distinctive things Volkswagen has produced in years, but this one came to us for a few carefully chosen upgrades to give it a completely different stance.

First up, H&R lowering springs. 🔧

Dropping the ride height takes away some of the standard arch gap and gives the Buzz a much more purposeful look, without going down the route of a full suspension replacement.

To complement the drop, we fitted a new set of aftermarket alloy wheels, along with the correct wheel bolts specifically suited to the new wheel fitment. It’s a small detail, but an important one whenever you’re changing from the factory wheel setup.

And then there’s the finishing touch up front… ⚡

An illuminated VW badge, bringing the front end to life and tying in perfectly with the ID. Buzz’s full-width lighting design.

None of the changes completely reinvent the van – they just work together to make an already unusual VW stand out that little bit more. 👌

Want more sound from your S3 without replacing the entire exhaust? 👀🔊

That’s exactly where a res-delete comes in.

This Audi S3 was recently with us for a Scorpion Exhausts resonator delete – a relatively simple upgrade designed to give the car a more noticeable exhaust note without going down the route of a complete aftermarket system.

So, what does it actually do?

The factory exhaust uses a resonator to help reduce and refine certain sound frequencies as exhaust gases travel through the system. A res-delete replaces that section with a freer-flowing pipe, allowing more of the engine’s natural exhaust note to make its way out the back. 🔥

The result is a deeper, more pronounced sound, particularly under acceleration, giving the S3 a little more character when you want to hear it.

It’s also why res-deletes have become such a popular first exhaust modification – you’re retaining the majority of the original system while changing one section to unlock a bit more noise. 👌

For this S3, we fitted a Scorpion Exhausts res-delete section, designed specifically for the application for a proper fit with the existing exhaust.

Four tiny parts with a pretty important job when you put your foot down… ⚡👀

This Audi S3 was recently in with us for an oil service and a fresh set of spark plugs – and we managed to get a good look at old vs new while they were out.

Spark plugs might be small, but they’re responsible for creating the spark that ignites the air/fuel mixture inside each cylinder. On a turbocharged performance car like the S3, they’re doing that thousands of times every minute, so their condition can have a real impact on how the engine starts, idles and performs.

As plugs wear, the gap and electrodes can deteriorate, making it harder to produce a strong, consistent spark. That’s why replacing them at the correct service interval matters rather than simply waiting for a misfire or warning light to appear. 🔧

While the S3 was with us, we also carried out its oil service, replacing the used oil filter you can see in the photos with a fresh one.

And take a closer look at the parts going back in. 👀

Genuine VW Group parts, straight out of the box.

It’s something we’re proud to reinforce with our servicing. We can maintain your Audi from its very first service, using genuine parts where required, following the correct manufacturer service schedules and updating the digital service record.
