Just looking for some opinions / advice; I've got an '04 Altea 2.0TDI Sport, engine unmodified. My Bro-in-law has a '52 Leon Cupra 1.8 20VT, again engine unmodified. We have talked for some time about doing a driving holiday thru Europe, and watching TG last night gave us some impetus to...

Just been out to fill up for week and have finally got V power diesel at the local shell (Saxondale Shell A46/A52). Has anyone else used this with a splash of Millers Sport 4? Do you think both together might be too much?

I'm looking to change my MG :cry: for something more economical, and after some web browsing the Cupra TDi looks like it could be a good contender. I looked at a Leon (Cupra R) before, after I sold my Coupe, but opted for the MG. However, after many years of fun and not much economy I...

Just to round off a crappy day, I put a bleeding great hole in the sump of my 2001 TDi110. Not sure if I've buggered the engine, had to limp around a roundabout after the oil light came on and it conked out :( GSF are showing a sump for a Golf mk3 diesel for £22 ex vat, is this the same part...

Is it safe to put Diesel Additives such as Redex in the tank? Someone working at a petrol station told me to check the manual as they had a diesel mondeo which was damaged (several hundred) due to the additives! Any ideas?

Help! Have gone and filled my 130 TDI Mk4 Ibiza with Petrol Towed home Anyone know the best place to get to on the car to disconnect/drain/pump the fuel out from please?

I'm thinking of changing my LC - and one of the possibilities for my next car is a BMW 525d. However, one of the things that I'm thinking about is the noise from the exhaust. I love the "sporty note" that my car gives, and don't really want to give that up. Obviously the sound from the...

Hi All, My Ibiza FR 130 PD was remapped and I experienced problems with the huge amount of diesel soot deposits left all over the back of the bumper, boot, etc, and with my Ibiza being yellow this wasn't a good luck (I had to clean it nearly everyday). I've had the map changed but now it...
