Jimbobcook's Mk2 FL Leon Cupra R (sold)

[Jimbobcook]

So after 1 person cutting in a new door in his garage wall and next door chopping wood my car is covered in crap and now it's raining so clean car this week is out.

Although as its going into the garage tomorrow for 3 days it's never a bad time to clean out the engine bay lol

I'm hoping me looking after her before the garage stint things go well haha

In for...
R8 Coil Pack
Spark plugs
Injectors off to be cleaned (ultrasonic magic)
Full service (including fuel filter)
New Sump pick up pipe
Sump cleaning
New dip stick (before the orange one breaks)

Also going to try and get them to paint my calipers while the injectors are away to be cleaned. Saves me trying to find some flat ground to jack my wheels up one by one lol

Well cars back and I'd say the difference after the above is night and day, the power feels a lot smoother and idle and power down feels a lot less savage and more progressive.

All in all a well worth trip I'd recommend for anyone with similar age car with our engine.

Here's a copy of the flow rate report

And here was the main issue with the Injectors... The filter baskets... Pretty sure they should in one piece lol

So... Treated her to a wash today

I was so dehydrated from the heat I wasn't thinking straight lol I had to put the car in the garage once dry to cool down so n hour later I could wax...

Shirley has now been sold to a soon to be forum member I think. Great guy and I think he's going to look after her which is what I wanted.

Maybe new car time for me... But for now without a car.

I don’t think a Mk4 would be acceptable, surely it got to me a Mk3 CUPRA

It won't be a mk4 as I'm not keen as of yet but the Mk3 wasn't a hitter with me at the beginning anyway then it just grew on me so meh maybe in the future.
