Fitted a Forge charge pipe thismorning.
Can hear a little more induction noise.
But no noticable difference in power.
Smoother pick up maybe.
At least it fits correctly.

When it creaks, if I push up on where the two torx screws go in on the left side of the lower dash, it doesn't creak anymore. I can't screw them in any tighter so I'm hoping a rubber washer will sort it.
I know it's not a Rolls or anything, but rattles and knocks really do my head in...
One of these days I'm just going to get a load of expanding foam, pump it through every gap or hole, and be done with it.

Whenever I'm messing around with plastic trims & rebuilding dashboards, I douse all the joints & clips with spray on furniture polish.When it creaks, if I push up on where the two torx screws go in on the left side of the lower dash, it doesn't creak anymore.

Silence! Except the missus wondering where the polish went.
Rattles though are a pain.

Try small squares of foam pushed over the clips / screws before they are pushed in.
Makes it all tight fitting again.

Wired up some new speakers - the door adapters didn’t fit so had to remove them (too high). Also did some tidying up of old wiring whilst I
was there

Can anyone spot my mistake??
Is it easier to take off the bit with the SEAT logo or remove the bumper again??
The S badge should unclipped from the grille but can be tight if never removed before.

I think I’ll do bumper off. Probably a safer bet. Can’t believe I’d just tightened the 8mm nuts on each side.
Oops
should off gone to spec savers 
One step forward 2steps back lol

Could off been worse bumper off is best bet and easiest way to go

Well, it’s been a sad day.
After 4 years of ownership with my Beloved Cupra R, today is the day that I have no choice but unfortunately it’s going to be going up for sale.
We are undertaking a large extension at home and need to free up some funds.
I’ve been hanging on as long as possible but I have no choice but to let it go.
I’ll get it advertised on here and hopefully it will find a good home.

Im sorry to hear that. Bricks n mortar are king so its not a bad move.
Maybe one day there will be another parked out front of your house

The s badge comes off as a unit. You just pull forward firmly
. Clips are strong. You won’t break them.
Easy. Takes seconds. Bumper off is a faff.

I chose bumper off. I've seen how rare and expensive those S badges are and didn't want to risk messing with 17 year old brittle plastic

I wanna open up the packs to have alook. But I know they will get scratched and damaged lol. So going to leave them wrapped up.. its my polycarbonate window sent from acw. https://www.acwmotorsportplastics.co.uk/
Have a look they are very reasonablely priced.
I can't wait to start putting the car together

never use them myself , my issue with them is most of time they use a very acid wheel cleaner as it ruins the wheels one reason i had my sd fr wheels redone and the last 2 clio16v i had the same was happening to them wheels but never redid them, even seen people with cars lacquer raising due to same thing.
I agree but doing it at home just sets my dog off (barking). If im outside and he isnt he kicks off.
Sounds like a poor excuse but it truly isnt.
Got a nosy neighbour who moans if the tv is on to loud
Easier to get it done by someone else.
Sayin that, going to give it a polish at some point with decent products.
It deserves that at least.
