Hi,
Can anyone tell me what the main differences are between the Ibiza 1.8 20VT FR and Cupra models are? I'm talking in terms of brakes, suspension, handling, turbo, clutch, gearing etc??
Also what mods would be needed to convert an FR to Cupra and vice-versa? Also are there any owners who...
I'm hopefully going to look at a Y reg Leon Cupra 1.8 20v t on Monday. Just wondering what i should be looking for in terms of common faults if any with Leons. I will be grateful for all replies, Thanks Michelle x
I've done a few logs the other day to check for my ongoing problem.
I'm getting the following error:
17521 - Oxygen (Lambda) Sensor: B1 S1: Internal Resistance too High
P1113 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent
I've changed the lambda sensor with a new one (NTK/NGK) and I'm still getting...
Well since the remap has been back on the car its been excellent but even with decent front tyres the TCS light is flashing in 2nd gear in the dry :lol:
I admit I do corner a little hard but I'm finding the inside wheel spinning up setting the TCS light off mid corner is a little annoying so...
Hello trusted members,
Would anyone be able to help me, I need a diagnostic check on my car and I can't get it down to Awesome? I will reward you in alcohol and merryment and be for ever grateful.
Many thanks,

I've searched the forum and powerflex.co.uk, but I can't find any uprated engine mounts for the Ibiza MK4 1.8 20vt.
With my 405Nm of torque I can get the original ones but then I can change them all the time.
So are there any other solutions for polyurethane bushes on the MK4 1.8 20vt?
I need to buy some new rubber in the next few weeks for the front. I currently have 16" 205 45 Toyo Proxes TR-1's. By the looks of things the Goodyear Eagle GS-D3 are as good as they get, I would be interested in peoples opinions please..

Hi, I'm Graeme, I've finally came from the depths of poor cars and bought myself a 2002 52 Seat Leon Cupra 20vT (180) facelift model.
Found it in my local Evans Halshaw; 55,000 miles, Silver, £4495 - Which I thought was a bargain!
Full MOT and service carried out, I'm dead happy.
This is my...
The appointment was booked in almost 2 months ago. This was a little bit of a blind date as I knew the bad reputation that the SEAT ovni paint had. I was relished this challenge as I wasn’t quite sure what the results would be.
This is how Orca’s car arrived. As you can see pretty dirty...
I am thinking of retrofitting cruise control to my 1.8VT FR, however I was wondering if the car driving its self at a steady rate would provide better fuel economy than my foot driving at a reasonably steady rate. I'm talking motorway driving generally keeping under 3000rpm (~ 70mph). I...
