That doesn't look to me like another car has hit it, looks more like you have clipped a wall and not realised you have done it.



Still a sickner however it happened :cry:


Surely the parking sensors would of told me I'm getting close. I always watch how close I am to things on the media screen

Houghsx, just type in 'new genuine skoda/vw/seat/Audi sports pedals'. The guy is from Slovenia. Quick delivery and has good feedback.
Cheers. Just a bit cautious getting bits from eBay so making sure I look at the right thing. :)

Just fitted Mk1 Cupra splitter on mine. Fairly easy and followed the guide.
Would be easier if I had two more hands though! :blink:
Cost 35 pounds in Sweden.

Popped back to the dealer to have coolant topped up and all levels checked. Coolant below min after 6 weeks but pressure test ok.

Another case of this then. There's a number of owners that have reported this issue on here. Definitely something happening during production.

Glad it's all OK though!

This made me check my coolant and was just under the minimum level so topped up with G40. Only done 2500 miles!

G40 ? - I thought vw cars used G13 !!

And the drop in coolant level has happened to a few people - it seems that some cars were not fully bled at the factory and during the first few months the air bubble escapes and drops the level.

They do but bloke in shop said G40 was OK to use and says on bottle approved for VAG 2005 onwards.... I have no clue what the difference is?
