Also took 2 "of either side of the reg for effect, probably should have got the bottom lip done but that will be next.

Ordered a new front dashcam as my A118C has gone all blurry.
Ordered a new rear wiper blade to get rid of the awful skipping of the original one.[:@]
Ordered some mats.

Still deciding whether I want plastic plates or pressed aluminium...:confused::shrug:

She'll get a clean tomorrow too.:drool:



EDIT - Just spotted the 'fan washer upgrade' thread - they'll be getting ordered this week too then!! Why they ever went back to jets is beyond me! *cough*cost*cough*
Can't wait to ditch those!

I went for the 3d gel plates as i think they look a bit better than the metal ones, only paid like £20 for them i think it was

Did you get normal size ones, i`m looking to go a bit smaller but its a minefield with the law.

I got the normal size from an ebay seller and ive not been pulled up about them, it was one of these sellers that dont ask for the form with the private reg on it so im not sure if they are 100% road legal but until im pulled up about it ill leave them on

Got a new set of Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance (225/40/R18) fitted to the front today.
Original tyres are all gone now, the rears lasted 17k on the back and 4k on the front before running the legal limit.

Well, my Leon FR TDI (2016) went back into SEAT again today. Currently on 43,000 miles and had a few issues in the last 20k with flashing coil light, eml light. Its been happening from start up, sometimes, and sometimes when driving. It was in @ 39k and got a new fuel pressure regulator, seemed to have cured my issue for the past few k's but the issue is back again! prior to this its had x2 boost sensors (on separate occasions, around 22k, then again at 30k)

Since around 2,000 miles, the cars had the DTUK box fitted, obviously removed when visiting SEAT with these issues (not that it should matter - @ DTUK?) but I'm beginning to think its the box at fault, as SEAT are literally scratching there heads hence this time keeping the car in for 2 weeks.

On the plus side, whilst road testing / monitoring and fitting new parts for the next 2 weeks, they've given me the new Cupra 300 DSG (after a little word in the right persons ear!)

So, what I did today was drop my diesel dog off, and pick up a Cupra 300!

........what a car, and mine for the next 2 weeks.

wow, a decent courtesy car for once.

And your issue is why I will not be re-mapping my Leon. Turbo went on my last car that I had remapped and for the little time I can use the extra ponnies, I don't want to risk it.

I drove to work, looked at my alloys in disgust, but was pleased with my parking :lol:

This must be one of those times where you hope the car is being fixed as long as possible. In the meantime, don't forget to reach for the Green 97-99 RON pump, oh and of course budget for higher fuel billls :).
