My engine management light came on on my way to work. I used my fault code reader and it gave me the fault code 4529 which according to gendans website database is "Connection turbocharger - throttle valve pressure hose" So i'm thinking theres a boost leak somewhere, but where i dont know. If...

Discovered the other day that one of my tyres doesnt seal on the rim anymore and discovered its been bodge repaired inside. So i need 2 new wheels as the spare is the same. Are the cupra r 18" wheels prone to cracking or distorting easily? anyone else suffered with flat spots on there wheels?

I'm thinking of going decat but I've just searched and found it brings a fault up, will the car run rough with the fault code or will it be fine and its just a case of erasing it every now and again?
