290

Hi, I’m currently running a stage 1 remap on my 2020 Leon Cupra 290 and wanting to go to stage 2. I know I’m needing an Induction Kit, Turbo Muffler Delete, intercooler and a downpipe. I’m going to get the scorpion sports cat downpipe, but other than that I’m not sure what other brands/parts...

I’ve owned a 2016 leon cupra 290 for about a month now, and yesterday the engine oil light has come on again! I seem to get about 600miles / 1000km per 1 litre of oil, this seems quite rubbish. I've checked the handguide and that says 0.5ltre per 1000km. So seems i’m consuming twice as much. No...

Removed from my car for a resonator delete. Was on the car for only approximately 37,000 miles. Have now sold my car so the part is taking up space. £50. £20 postage.

Hi there, Two weeks ago I collected my 2019 Seat Leon Cupra 290 in Mystery Blue and I'm beyond impressed! It has a real Jekyll and Hyde personality when switching between the driving modes. In comfort, it's soft and refined with the throttle response toned down and the suspension floating...

Hey guys, I've been a member for many years having had my beloved mk3 ibiza cupra for a long time and then a red mk4 Ibiza cupra. Both great little cars and many good memories. I moved to Czech republic from the UK a few years ago and ended up converting to VW, currently I have a Mk6 Golf GTI...

Hi, I'm thinking of doing a res delete on my cupra 290 70 plate, was wondering if anyone else has done it and whats the difference or is it worth it etc? I've been quoted £80 for the res delete and if I ever do need to out it back on it'll cost £40. Anyone with lease cars that have done this...

just taken delivery of a new registration cupra 290 hatch, a question about the fuel type? It says recommend fuel is 98Ron but 95 Ron minimum? Does anyone run there’s only on 95RON and does it damage of affect the running of the cupra??

Just wondering if anyone knows whether the version 1 of the VAGsport res delete will fit to a cupra 290, as i’ve bought that version however i’ve seen on other forums that version 1 only fits to 280’s? Bare in mind I only found out that info after i’d bought the part.

Any one know if you can put a Cupra 290 bumper onto a Cupra 300, eg do mounting points align, fog lights work etc

Hi All, have had my Cupra for just under a year now. Haven’t been hugely active on here but I am hoping someone can shed some light on a weird issue that has just started to happen. Under heavy acceleration in 4th/5th or 6th gear the revs start to increase then at about 3k they jump up a few...

I’ve just made the massive leap from a 2009 diesel 170 mk2 Leon to a 2016 mk3 Cupra 290.. i’ve had her 3 days and so far i love it! I stayed with a manual just for personal preference, does anyone have essential tips and tricks for me? Other than watch out for speed cameras

Evening all I know there are plenty of threads about res deletes on the latest 2019 Cupra's, most of which I am caught up on... But I guess the real reason for this particular thread is that I am intrigued to get people's personal opinion on whether they think getting a res delete on the new...

I just watched this video on the EDIFF service for the GTI performance pack. I think thats the same as the one in our cars. Has anyone done this service or asked a garage to do it? I asked my local and they said it was not needed... DrEv1l

Hi all, Had the 290 SC running on lowered springs for 3 years now (from new) and as I’m intending on buying the car when the balloon payment comes up next month I’m thinking of putting the original springs back on. I don’t think I can continue with the absolutely awful comfort anymore (maybe...

Hi guys, I’ve got a 2016 Leon Cupra 290 Manual. I’m wanting an induction kit that makes good intake noise and that won’t restrict airflow when I take it to stage 1; around 370bhp ish. If anyone has any suggestions or experience with good intakes hit me up! Cheers Brandon

Hi all, First time posting on here, just looking for a bit of advice. I’ve spent loads of time searching around and through these forums and not found what I’m looking for so far, so any input would be appreciated! I’ll try and keep it relatively short :) A while back I had my ECP light come...

I thought it'd be a good idea to have a proper separate thread for all things Copra 290 (except for the ordering, which you can find here). This thread should be the place you can post the specs of your newly received Copra 290, some nice exhaust clips, drive-by videos, pops/bangs/crackles/farts...
