body

Having ordered an FR TDi and upgraded to the 18" Alloys, I'm considering getting the full Seat body kit. Just phoned an insurance company for a quote, and they quoted £282 Fully Comp (Full Business Class) without the body kit, but when I mentioned possibly adding the kit, he said they would not...

After owning my genuine body kit since October, I thought I should take a look at how it looks on my A2 TDI Sport with 17" RS6 wheels.. I have to say, I'm impressed. Before seeing this in the flesh I was part torn as to whether I should sell the kit and make a bit of cash or take the plunge and...

Hi guys. Recently picked up my 2005 LCR 225 and exactly the same as my LC 180 it still has the body roll. Without changing the suspension what can I do in terms of ARB upgrades to stop this from happening? Cheers. Gav.

I'm trying to find all the body kits there is. Here is a collection of what I have found so far. I know there are at least two more that I have seen, but did not remember where at this moment. Please let me know of all the other ones. Aero Kit...

Finally got all of my bad idle, rough mid range and awful performance sorted after getting the throttle body cleaned professionally only for it to uncover the fact that the throttle body itself is pooped. I know thery are in excess of £500, so waswondering if anyone knows if there is such a...

Hi i just need a quick reminder as i forgotten but how do you align the throttle body? Is it turn your ignition to full and leave it 20 minutes?

ok my mk2 1.4 has done nearly 80k, given me very little problems and i love it its a fantastic little car anyway recently the engine has been bit rough on idle and rpm has been fluctuating between 1k rpm and dropping by about 300 or so anyway i reckon its the throttle body and it could do...

I noticed that the aero kit is being offered on several different specifications of MKII leons "for free" Does anyone think this may devalue or reduce the exclusivity of the cupra given its conservative styling. (mind wanders back to the tdi+ etc at the end of the MKI run) Or do you think...

guys going to give my throttle body a clean in a sec ive read some threads on here that it may need re-aligning after is this the case or do i just be careful??? wayneo

I have finally got my body back! yup, at last, i have my bodyshell back from the finishers, having been acid dipped, electroplated and then painted. It's "old-skool" rally car white (as all proper rally cars should be!) and in case anyone is interested (RobT etc) the bare shell without any...

My rear valance is starting to come away fom the car :( I have used Araldite fast fix but it's not working :rolleyes: Any thing else out there that's good for fixing the valance back down?

Posted on other forums but not got much information. Just wondering if anyone has ground out their standard throttle body. The one on my AGU A3 has big lumps in it. Obviously they were put there for a reason but what will be the result of removing the lumps to remove the restriction??? Gavin

I've been getting a few throttle related fault codes and bizarre goings on. Codes as follows: 18087 - Drive by wire - MIL circuit open 17976 - Throttle actuator(J336) mechanical Intermittant failure 17953 - Throttle Valve controller: malfunction. Last night while giving it some, the car...

:think: Asked a well known tuninig establishment if they could re-set my new throttle body. They said they could but if I asked on the Cupranet someone could tell me how to do it myself for free. Anyone out there with the answer please?

Hi there, I know this has been discussed on some other threads but could not find a proper throttle body cleaning guide etc. I want to clean my throttle body and was wandering what was really involved if I decided to take the whole throttle body off and cleaned it, I take it I would need...
