Has anyone yet had to get the Windscreen replaced on a Mk2 Leon?
I seem to remember reading it was a pig of a job even for the proffessionals from Autoglass and the like. With high potential for damage to bodywork?
Mine has a crack so it has to be done either way, but its nice to have a heads...
Good morning, guys and girls.
I've only recently brought my Leon Cupra. After only owning N/A cars it's been a pleasure driving something with forced induction :).
My question is this, i've just been poking about under the bonnet and making myself familiar with the VAG engine and I came...
Some pics for the ambulance chasers ;)
Hit a rabbit a couple nights back and it cracked the splitter.. had to hacksaw the other side off because it was bitterly cold, the screws were stuck, it was midnight and I had leave to go to kirkaldy at silly o clock the next morning.
Then last night I...
Just gone out to wash the car ready for the annual xmas prezzie drop .
and have found a small crack at the bottom of the drivers side of the windscreen ?
there is NO damage or stone chip anywhere near
the only thing I can think of is it a stress crack from fitting the front strut brace...
Went over a humpback bridge yesterday, landed a bit hard, and BANG, sump gone.
How difficult is the sump to replace on a V5?
Is the v5 Sump from a golf / bora compatible with the toledo?
Recently I found out that my Cupra had a cracked engine block. With 52K on the clock and just outside of the warranty I am some what miffed :mad:.
The fault started with a warning light coming on the temperature gauge; first of all it appeared to be a sensor fault but within a very short...
Just read through previous thread about not getting the right mpg. I put 20 quid in the car yesterday and it showed just over 3/4 of a tank full. Only driven about 30 mile since yesterday and now i showing just over half a tank. Wondered if it was the guage but dont seem to be and wondered if it...
Hi, I've just seen my engine after it failed last weekend, and the piston in No3 cyl has cracked, and marked the bore. Skoda are saying I need a short motor, and basically this repair will cost 3k whan all done.
The car is running a hybrid, FMIC etc and I was wondering what other options are...
I took my turbo off at the weekend to remove the broken bolts.
It's done just under 70k miles (45k Revo) - virtually no play on the shaft or wear to the compressor vanes.
However, note the crack in the manifold flange towards where the gasket failed. :blink: Note the crack that runs all...
Some stupid :censored:, driving a stupid little Corsa, has cracked my windscreen! :cry: [:@] I say driving, but I don't think he knows how to. Luckily thats all he did. I was ready for an airbag in the face as he lost control doing stupid speeds round a blind corner on a small country road...
Hi yally!
I have a 2 inch crack in the middle of the passenger side door. The worst part is that there is a rust dot at one end :cry:
I have been trying to get some quotes from local coachwork people, they are recomending re-spraying the whole door which is going to cost between...
First of all hello to all. Never posted on here before.
SWMBO has a 2000 W reg. Ibiza 1.4 with a cable clutch. The pedal box had gradually cracked and bent - enough for the clutch to stop working properly.
To be honest, I didn't fancy removing the box etc and fitting a new one. It's a...
Hello Again,
Following on from my previous post in the forum.... I recently cracked the sump of my V5 on a speed hump:redface: , after about 10 minutes of driving (not realising that my oil was pouring all over the road, the oil light started to flash. The car then lost power and switched...
Hi Guys,
I have just been out in the missus's car, to find a annoying loud crack on releasing the clutch peddle... on further investigation I have found a crack on the peddle box...
Anybody have any instructions on how to remove this crappy item to have it re-welded.

Hello guys on a pervious thread I said about my down pipe joint leaking and I thought that it was just gasket leaking. Well it turns out that the actual down pipe is cracked, I have a Miltek cat back system so I was thinking of getting a Miltek down pipe and cat but they are very expensive can...
Recently got my hands on a Black TFSI with all the extras, with the BTCC 'inspired' (lol) bodykit and the 18" BBS SEAT Sport Alloys. - Pretty damn happy, apart from -
The speakers are pants! Rear drivers side tweeter rattles loads, so will be sorting that out in due course.
Anyway, three days...

Getting in my car to leave work yesturday lunchtime (the joys of woking for yourself) i noticed a 3in crack up the windscreen of my LCR. :censored:
