diesel

Might be being thick, but can you fit a water spray onto a diesel intercooler? Have noticed that with the warmer weather the power delivery is less brutal than when it was frosty, so would like to have it all year round.

Just thought id post this thread as i though this was a good question. What has everyone found to be the best fuel to use? Also any tips on how to improve mpg. I normally use BP ultimate and get around 550 miles out of my tank. Dean

pick up the diesel 2mo, just wondering what is the best diesel to use?

has anyone else had a problem with their 1.9 diesel leon whistling? my car often sounds like an owl is stuck in the engine. i have a 1.9tdi stylance and it whistles at certain speeds in different gears when the accelerator is pressed to a certain point. if i hold it at the point the...

What a shock I had last night, The Ibiza was running on diesel fumes, barely an egg cup full left, when i stumbled across a BP Garage. I religiously use Shell Diesel, which currently is priced at 89.9 p. I wasnt really paying much attention, and was surprised when this diesel pump was...

Hi all, I know a lot of dervs fly through emissions without a cat/particle filter. Is the Cupra TDi one of these vehicles? A mapped one - obviously!

What issues would I come across if I wanted to remove the cat(s) and particulate filter from my Ref Sport? Thanks Fish

I've had my '07 Seat Ibiza TDi Sport (100PS) for 6 months now and I'm wanting to gain some more power. I want to know what the tuning options are? I've heard from others that I should be able to achieve something ranging from 120 BHP to 130 BHP from just a remap. But what should I...

One of the works cars has had a little spill in the boot......jerry can leaked :doh: Anyone know how it can be removed?

i was basically just wondering if the fuel consumption was a shock compared to a frugal diesel? how much of a difference did there turn out to be etc.

Anyone got any tips or advice on changing the oil in the 1.4 tdi? Is it as straight forward as a normal petrol car? Cheers

Just put some in. Normally use Shell. My car seems different like not as quick perhaps. just different. Can't put my finger on it. Anyone notice this?? It was the diesel extra from bp that i put in.

Hi, I currently have an 02 Seat Leon Cupra (non-"R") which I enjoy very much. Around 60k on the clock now. What I am not particularly enjoying are the fuel costs. I think I'm spending about £300 pcm - I get about 330-340 miles per tank. It's mostly motorway miles. I'm just...

I have done a search but cannot find the answer as to difference in servicing costs on a Petrol vs Diesel. Surprisingsly, the couple of quotes I have received so far, the Diesel FR costs more to insure than the petrol, but only by difference in road tax so no problem there really. As I...

Yes i dare say its a repost and no there no seat's but sort of proves a point! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zo987X-Au48

Hi , I bought this car on June/July 2006 with the comfort pack added. It's metallic black and has £2000 sound system fitted. (Ipod etc) Only 3,800 miles done and in perfect condition. I have been offered a company car now and was wondering what price I could expect to sell my Cupra at...

I was traveling home last night, cruising along at about 70mph in fifth gear, going up a slight incline; I heard/felt a slight pop; and then the revs started dropping. I dropped it a gear, and it started to pick up again, but it just crawled up the hill. Before then, it was also nippy on...

What kind of success have your guys has of finding BP Ultimate diesel. You heat of the amazing affect it has but i can't find a BP station who stocks it in the west midlands area. At the moment I use Shell Diesel extra, is this any good compared to the rest?

Firstly, let me make it clear that this thread and question has no hidden agenda, no point to prove, nothing sinister or snide about it at all. It's a genuine question. Also, PLEASE don't turn this into a 'my e-penis is bigger than yours' debate ;) Ok... I'm guilty myself of saying the only...

Having managed to wangle a not quite so new (60k on the clock) Cupra FR to play with thru work for a couple of months or so I'm guessing the oracles amongst the Seat 'massive' here are all in favour of using BP Ultimate Diesel are they? Just thought I'd ask the question as to what was...
