cupra 280

Quick one people. Just got a mk3 cupra 280 DSG and when coasting (foot off the accelerator) and the car changes itself from 4th to 5th it makes a grinding noise. Any ideas what this could be. This is the only gear it makes it in and the car performs fine other than that and you don't hear it...

I am in a bit of a dilema. I've owned my Cupra 280 for 6 years and it has not let me down. Yet i find myself looking for a change. I maybe selling up soon, and i am looking on Autotrader, my vehicle would fetch around £14-15k. Is that right? What Is it about the spec? would that make any...

Having bit of an issue with this seal on the drivers side. It’s perished and ripped in one area. It’s not the one on the door, but the one that goes on the sill and around. The seal on the door itself is fine. Does anyone know a part number and where I can source it from? It looks a relatively...

Hi all. Just bought a Cupra 280 the other day. We are due to have a baby in March so wanted something with more space in the back seats and boot, whilst not compromising on speed and fun. Hopefully my baby will enjoy it!

I've got a Cupra 280 and I need some new brakes. I was thinking of getting some DS2500 pads but i'm unsure if I should marry it up with the oem discs or something more heat resistant. I live in the city and don't take it on track but I DRIVE my car and like it to have good stopping power...

I’m looking at selling my alloys. How much can I realistically expect for these? For sake of ease, assuming they were all mint condition (which they aren’t but it’ll take some of the variability it out if I guess!) Cheers

Bit of an odd one, but as in the title - when buying a MK3 Leon Cupra, which is the best? In this case, preferably under 20k and taking value for money into account. So, given the above - I understand some special editions have come out over the years, I've heard the Sub8 pack is excellent...

Hello I think I’ve got a classic coolant leak so will hazard a guess that I need a water pump. Obviously I will get it looked at by a mechanic before replacing it. I know usually people say that you might as well change a cam belt when you change the water pump. I don’t seem to be able to find...

Hi all, can anyone recommend any body shops in the Leicestershire area? Need to get some Maxton Design splitters fitted. Thanks :thumbup:

Hello all, I've just secured a cupra 280 for a really low price.... it's got 20k on the clock and only 1 issue that I can see ;). The radio unit does not work (power on) is this a common fault or not. Also it maybe related but when test driving it, I pressed the cupra button it lights but...

Heres my recently acquired 2014 Cupra 280 dsg in Nevada White. Visually the car has black front and rear Seat badge, de-badge cupra emblem and original 19" wheels sprayed gunmetal grey. There's the odd stonechip on the front end but this will all be sorted over the next year with some tlc.

Hi, I have a 2016 Cupra 290 and am after some black SEAT badges front and back. Just wondering what are the best options. Anyone got pictures of theirs and where they got them from? Cheers, Brandon

Just replaced the steal cupra 280 subframe with a Audi s3 aluminium subframe and the cars feels SO much more responsive. Just something someone else might want to consider

Hi guys, Probably a long shot but I’ve just bought a 2017(66) cupra 290 DSG. Had it about a month now and the gearbox is brilliant but I just miss a manual. Would anyone be interested in doing a deal of some sort for another 290 but manual gearbox? Must have: Bucket seats Black pack (prefer...

I have a 2017 cupra 290 dsg and was wondering if there’s a way to remove the auto-upshift when at the redline? Just sometimes you want to hold the gear going round a corner to keep the car stable and it upshifts.
