  1. How does your gearbox feel??

    As above really. My 5k mile old Exeo's gearchange is pretty notchy and sometimes a bit stiff, even when the gearbox is warm. Is yours the same, or do I need to have a moan :) Conks
  2. Paint faded? rough feel

    Any input is appreciated. I got a 2 year old Ibiza with Silver (Luna Grey) paint. I've always looked after it by washing it regular and waxing every 6 months. So after washing and drying today, I've apply Turtle wax as I normally do. When I came to buffering off the wax, I was shocked to...

    This has to be the simplest part on the Ibiza, just a black ring on the centre of the dash but one of mine fell out today as it had cracked. Any ideas of price or a part number please? I also found a hole in the rear speaker grille (it's a 5 door and I only got the car yesterday). Annoyed...

  6. Cant really feel my turbo working

    Finally got my new fr tfsi on wed. Obviously the turbo must be workin, cause it picks up speed quick enough, but i dont really 'feel' the turbo. My last car was a remaped 1.9 diesel, and you could always feel the turbo kickin in real hard. i know diesels have lots more torque etc, but should i...

    Anyone elses LCR feel faster tonight?

    I don't know if it was because of the all the rain we've had tonight but my car felt much quicker! I was beginning to worry, as I only bought it last week and it felt rapid the day I got it, but the last 3-4 days its feels like it might be a bit down on power, either that or I'm just getting...

    brakes feel different!

    When braking normally in my PD140 the brakes are fine but when I brake a bit sharper for e.g when a traffic light changes the brake pedal feels hard and there is very little feel, they never used to do this. So I'm guessing the pads are worn. Any thoughts?

    How did your Cupra (not R) feel to you as standard?

    Hello, For all you Cupra (180hp) owners, how did the car feel to you performance and driveability wise when standard? 0-60 is exciting but after that it dies off :( The engine sound is pretty tasty though although that's probably because I have a CAI fitted. Did you need to remap it to...
  12. Secondary Air Breather Filter

    Sorry, but I've purchased something that I really really shouldn't have. Basically, my mate mentioned that I needed a breather filter on this pipe So I went and got one. And it now looks like this: Anyone guess the brand and why I feel dirty :( :D lol
  13. Clutch, Please help. I feel like crying.

    I took my '98 1.4 Ibiza to a local guy (who I trust) for a new clutch today because my pedal had gotten so stiff. He said that he had gotten one like that before and it was not the clutch but the cable had pulled through the bulkhead causing it to be pulled at an angle hence the stiffness. He...

  15. I can feel every little bump...

    in the last 1k ive noticed the car seems to bounce around a hell of a lot when on the road. I can feel every bump in the road, even when the road is smooth. Handling seems alright, no knocking or any sounds that i should be worried about. I've also noticed that around 65mph and onwards that car...

    Bloody car insurance! Feel like I've been mugged!

    Here's the story: Test drove an FR TDi (Insurance Group 12) plus 18" wheels a couple of weeks ago; phoned current insurers to find out how much to change vehicles and they quoted £150. No problem with that. I didn't buy the FR in the end but have now bought a Stylance 2.0 TDi (Insurance...

  18. Had remap but doesn't feel like it

    I need some advice. I got my car (Audi a3 1.9tdi quattro) remapped on the weekend. Apparently the original power was 138bhp i wasn't quoted the torque figure. Well once they'd finished remapping they suggested I take it for a drive, so I did and couldn't really tell the difference. I asked...
