What did you and your MK2 do today?

Taking it to the Garage to get a nail removed from the tyre. Not lost any pressure so should be a relatively easy fix

I know puncture repairs are quite common but I really wouldnt like the thought of getting the car to speeds that some may do and thinking about the plug thats keeping you on the road. Also the same applies to heavy cornering forces.

I am a bit ocd, and having nearly been killed last year when a car lost control and flipped over my head on the hard shoulder. Traction and grip is everything

That's true. I'm going for all out grip and traction when I start the tuning and mods

What keeps putting it out

Terrible roads? I don't know, the Kia was worse though. But on this subject, the garage are saying that the rear camber is out, but cannot be adjusted?? Said the same last time...

The missus just picked up her new mk3 leon tdi, it's done 200 miles as it was driven down from Leeds to her. We got in the car and drove 2 minutes down the road, took a left, and then a loud scraping noise, which I can only describe as like metal scraping together or along the floor. I jumped out and tried to take a look under the car, nothing on the floor, the sound was coming from the front left wheel. I can't see anything wrong, although the front brake pads look like they're on upside down! Luckily it's a lease car from her work so hopefully they can sort it out! Rather dissapointing!

Been looking at spark plugs tonight, thinking of changing them at the weekend, any recommendations on what to go for with my 2008 Leon Cupra K1?

Might replace the cam follower aswell if this is recommended? Its been mapped now too, stage 1.
