Have your indicators started working irratically or intermitently? If so check the hazard warning light switch. Does it cut out after a short period of time/ work irratically or just once? Both problems will almost certainly be caused by the hazard warning light relay which is...

Yes I have done a search but I can’t find what I need. I’m looking for a comprehensive guide on changing the timing belt on an LCR. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Hi all, Looking for a bit of advice/experience: Is changing the timing belt on a 99 2L AGG engine a realistic DIY job? Are there any specialist tools required? I'd like to be able to pay for someone else to do it but I've been quoted £270 - £320 which is a bit much at the minute...

Hey, Inspired by this thread http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=117350 I decided to try to modify my gear shifter for shorter throw. Took off the shifter component to find that the original pin cannot be removed and is pressed into the shifter. The guy in the other thread...
