Wow, mixed feelings about this one.
Part of me sad to see the last works team go, part of me glad to see the back of them, as they (along with a nameless other) a good at pushing people off the track
Im needing to get the end caps for the gti sideskirts as I have finally aquired a set of them.
Firstly Im guessing I will need 2 left and 2 right for the sideskirts?
Secondly, you are able to get them in a satin black aswell, which ones will I need for these side-skirts...
Due to 'cheap' maintenance a new engine was needed in my early Mk 1 Leon TDi. The ECU had originally been chipped by Superchips to give 140bhp. New engine only gives 110 bhp but an unusual torque curve which is almost straight until 4,000rpm. Obviously the ferocious low end grunt is now...

Just wondered if anyone knew the torque value for the big end bolts. Ive got a feeling its 65NM but not sure if this is the mains or the big ends. If anyone knew this would be great!!! Cheers in advance :D
Since fitting my KW Coilovers, Neuspeed ARBs (25mm front, 28mm rear), uprated wishbone bushes, rear 15mm spacers and front upper/lower strut braces I've noticed that under heavy braking the back end is quite twitchy and feels like it's struggling to stay in a straight line. (it's been laser...
Ok so the car seems like it has been broken forever! I`ve tried trying to find the fault myself via help from the forums but to no avail, so i bit the bullet as im desperate to sell and booked it in with SEAT only for them to give it the elbow because of the modifications carried out a local VAG...
hoping some of yo guys can shed some light on my battery problem.
what happens is basically i leave the car for the night or a few days and when i go to start it the battery is obviously flat or atleast doesn't have enough power to get the car going.
It happened a while back and i got it...
Hi guys, happy new year before i start. After nearly six months of juddering with my cupra 180 (with phase one cc) and no spare cash to get it looked at, i've managed to cure the problem, or should i say problems, i've been reading threads on here trying to find out what could have been wrong...
how much is this likely to cost for the part? is it best i get a garage to fit it, as i'll need the tracking done..?
is it a lot of hassle to replace it myself?
i was possibly going to do it when my new front discs and pads arrive, but if its gonna be too muchhassle, then i wont both
The back end on my 16v cupra is just dangerous [:@]
yesterday i went round a roundabout at about 20mph and the back end came out AGAIN!!!
Ok it was wet but i was going real slow and just didn't expect it at all.
I had the missus & my baby in the car also,and now i know why she refuses to use...
Hi
My car seems to have developed a LOUD rubber on rubber squeak from the front somewhere (and I am talking LOUD here). I'm assuming suspension bush probably. Most noticeable when going slowly over say "speed bumps" or raised lip into garage etc. No clonking, or knocking noises and doesn't...
Well... im not to sure what the problem may be but my dad said it could be valve problems but that could be wrong... basically at 70mph or over the car losses power also if you stop e.g. in the services it sounds like a diesel when you start it up again with a loudish ticking sort of noise...
Hi guys
My 05 plate Tdi FR seems to have developed a tendency to weave all over the road. I do get random clunks from time to time as well. Can any of you suggest typical items that tend to wear on the front suspension of these cars?
I'm guessing its an ARB bush, but I need to check as the...

Hi, been using this excellent forum for help on my leon in the past but now need a top tip for my Alhambra. Hope someone can help.
One of the gear linkage ends on the gearbox keeps poping off the pin on the gearbox actuator arm, I can push it on and off easily so I think it is just worn. The...
