what did you and your mk3 leon do today

[Damo H]

Well yesterday I started in the rain...

...and thanks to some help and moral support from @paddy6789 finished in the dark.

So some photos from this morning. Just needs a proper clean.

Just some finishing touches to go next Sunday before she’s how I want her

That whole front bumper setup is just beautiful. The lines

Drove to work, clutch clicking when cold as you lift off and sounds like a leaf or two in the fans

Nothing, other than drove dirty car to work and then home again, I never wash the car unless the forecast is dry for at least 4 days as it will be bogging again anyway. This time of year a coat of dirt protects it from the salt, and when it finally gats a clean it is totally rust free and looks like new, Also pisses off the Ford, BMW, Volvo etc drivers that wash every day when my filthy but very fast Cupra leaves them for dead, how I love this car.

Updated MIB2STD Sat Nav to V1120 and also updated Speed Camera Database.

Reset Full Link to Factory Settings and cleated my iPhone from the car. Then reset up Apple Car Play with Spotify. Didn’t pair phone to car with Bluetooth to see if that’s what’s causing the issues.

First proper snow in Finland today - spent the evening just going everywhere sideways
...and teasing BMW drivers

I bought the parts from https://www.oemvwshop.com/ and they were painted gloss black afterwards in a car body shop.
Front bumper needs to be removed to replace the grilles.

Here are the part numbers if anyone with an FR is interested:

Left Fog light surround
5F0853665J 9B9

Right Fog light surround
5F0853666J 9B9

Upper front grill
5F0853654K 9B9

Cupra upper front grill frame
5F0854643G GRU

Lower front grill without ACC radar opening
5F0853667L 9B9

Lower front grill with ACC radar opening
5F0853667M 9B9

Are those part numbers good for the facelift? Guessing so as yours is the facelift as well but I just wanted to 100% check you have rjat part number on your upper grill and it all fits ok?

There’s different files to download. Go for version 5. That seems to be the best option.

Are you getting dual speed limits i.e 60 and 50 mph displayed? (i.e trailer/euro wet weather limits)
These default to these on Bundle 1, 2 and 5 for me

What happens in England when it snows is that the guy with the £100k Range Rover with it's fancy terrain response system is sat stuck in the same traffic jam as you due to a bus having slid down the a hill and blocked the road

I have made some video yesterday, but I need to glue it together and post it to YouTube

It's good that some people can have fun when it snows, causes mayhem where I live on the South East Kent costs in England. We have somewhere in the region of ten thousand trucks a day pass through Dover Port and the Channel Tunnel and if the motorways are impassable due to bad weather its a nightmare. Google 'Operation Stack' and you'll get the picture, this is inbetween French fisherman blockading Calais Port at random points in the year stopping any ferries from docking.

Well, I guess for obvious reasons, we are more well prepared for snow here up North
...among other things, by law all cars must have winter tires during the winter months (which in practice is 5-6 months here in Finland) and these winter tires are not the same type you get out of the Nordics - they are meant for these harsher conditions and have different compounds and thread patterns, with studded tires often being the norm.
Also, everyone here is pretty used to drive in these conditions, since they are the norm for quite an extended period of the year - you might get a day or two of snow there and we get 4 months
So... Yeah. Snow driving is fun.
Actually, come February i will be attending an ice track weekend on a frozen lake and enjoying even more sideways time
...but more footage of that will also still come after the event.

I need to move to Finland...

The guy organizing this event is actually a Britt and most attending are coming from Finland but he also has a travel package with instructions for those wishing to attend coming from the UK.

I haven’t been out and tried it since updating. Will try it later and let you know.

I’ve only been on 60, 40 & 30 roads up to now. Findings are:

30mph shows only 30 on screen
40mph shows only 40 on screen
60mph shows 50 above 60 on screen

Checked all settings and I have trailer switched off.

To confirm, this is bundle 5 v1120 upgraded from v1030.

The studded tyres don’t half wreck the roads. I was in Iceland in February and wondered why a bus I was in was overtaking going uphill in a snowstorm!! Found out it had studded tyres.

Most of the roads I saw were badly worn with ruts caused by studded tyres, especially in Reykjavik.

Thanks for the response mate, same result as I have on Bundles 1, 5, 6 not tried on A1(M) yet but suspect it will be 60 above 70 on screen.
Don't like this.
Also don't like the "Bundles" breaking out different countries, seems VAG may have now encountered their SD Cards are too small for the data now required?
p.s. I even tried combining all updates........for all countries in Western Europe, that failed.
Bundle 5 installed and failed to recognise a destination in Portugal or Germany.
This update is definately a step backwards
