cold

hi possable starting prob ,when i start up from cold my 53plate petrol cupra seems to blow like exurst has fallen off for 30 seconds then its fine is this normal ?????

Just wondering if it is meant to make a fluttering sound though the filter? you can still here the dv on high boost but most of the time it just flutters is this correct ? cause a few people have told me that it is not good for the engine if it dones this? any advise will be appriciated!

my cordy 1999 P reg 1.6 8v sx... when i start it up in the morning it makes a funny whining nose,,,sounds like when a turbos winding up i suppose.. cant quite work out what it is but it is getting so frustrating.! any ideas? (have tried looking under the bonnet but nothing)

My Cordoba 1.6 Signo has suddenly started to have higher idle rev's when cold. It used to run at aprox 8-900 rpm's idleing when cold, but not it up's to about 1200 for a few minutes. Then it suddenly drops to the usual 8-900. It takes some three minutes or so. Its almost like i sit and press...

Hi All In the past few weeks my car has developed an intemittent fault which I hope some of you may be able to point me in the right direction with. Sometimes when starting the car from cold, the engine sounds like its running on 3 cylinders and so shakes like mad rattling the exhaust etc...

I have a 2003 LC with a star performance remap and forge DV. I recently noticed that when the car is started cold there is a noise similar to an exhaust leak from the engine. it last about a minute then goes silent. you cannot hear it from inside the car. is this usual or is there a problem

After spending most of last night reading about bigger cold air feeds and good results, i decided to give it a go today to see if it was worth it. First impressions are good. Induction noise is throatier so it sounds better. Response is quicker, so pulling away feels smoother. Smoke...

If you start engine fine will stay on 1000revs, but when you have driven it and take foot off gas the rev counter dances around more than Wayne Sleep!, occiasionaly you see the battery light flash as it nearly cuts out, other times just cuts out. When engine warm fine just does it on cold...

Apologies if this has been asked before. Purchased a second hand 55 Reg Toledo and have had cold starting problems from the start. I have taking it back to the dealer 5 (!!!) times and problem still not fixed. Car starts fine in the mornings on level ground or with nose downwards but only...

lo all, any recommendations on the best place to get some cold air feed piping as i dont fancy paying £15quid off fleabay. I guess B&Q but thought id ask on here incase there is a special SCN contact for such devices ;)

Ok you may have seen the other thread on this earlier this week, if not its here... http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=130547 it hasn't been an easy day but the feeds finally got shoe-horned in and from the logs there seems to be a decent improvement in airflow and actually a...

Ok some of you with good memories will remember what i did when i was looking for a decent spot for a cold air feed on my LCR. for those of you that dont the link is http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=119969 Everything is working very well and im really pleased with the feed...

i have a bit of a problem, when i first pull away on a morning...the clutch just seems to be either in or out.... e.g. when putting away you pull the clutch out slowley and you can feel it start to bite then all of a sudden its like bang and its in... any ideas.... only has 4500 miles on... will...

This only happens when the engine is cold or maybe when all the fluids have settled or both. If the car has sat for a while I can select gears very easily, but when I start the car and push the clutch right in it is very very difficult to get gears, takes alot of force and only grinds and...

Hi popped along to forge the other day and picked up a tip for the leon,:D whilst i was there i asked one of the sales guys what honestly was the point in the cold side relocation kit and to my surprise he replied (honestly which i liked) that there wasnt much point at all.:confused: this...

Hi, Has anyone experienced an excessive amount of noise from an induction kit/turbo when starting from cold?? It only lasts about a minute and then the throttle settles down. I expect the throttle to raise slightly on cold start but the noise is a bit of a concern. :confused:

Been mucking about with ideas to get cold air up to the air filter (green filter cone) and after some thought came up with this : took a fog light housing apart , cut of the back , connected the cold air pipe to the back and bolted it back in .

im thinking of getting the forge Cold Side Valve Relocation Kit but after doing a search on here its turned up some negative feedback which has put a doubt in my mind about spending the money on it.. any owners of these kits can you help and tell me what you think/thought of yours? cheers
