  4. My Final thoughts on DPF

    Hi All, Right I've read all the threads on DPF and I've just been going through the same problems, re-gen, limp mode, flashing coil light etc I've also read all the different notions and theories such as driving the car on longer trips but that doesn’t seem to make any difference as I travel...

  6. The Final Straw - windows completely soaked on inside

    For the last week, when I have got in my Leon, the windows are completely soaked on the inside and takes forever to dry out with the blowers.

    Hi all, Can anyone tell me the final drive ratio on the Ibiza Deisel FR and Cupra. I have managed to find out the gear ratios using the "search" but in order to calculate the mph/1000 for each gear I need the final drives. Cheers :D

    Part Number for a 3.94 Final Drive

    Anyone know the part number for the 3.94 final drive? Wanna price it up, if it's close to the price of finding a gearbox with this final drive and the cost of striping it to remove the final drive then it might be worth buying new :) Cheers
  11. Final choice of wheels?

    Right, I have made the final choice, its either of these three below, which ones do you reckon would look best on a 2001 Black Magic LC? I am going to make the purchase at the end of this week the first one is a 35mm offset, and the 2nd & 3rd are 45mm - what does this mean...

    3.94 or 4.25 Final Drive???

    Basically which one would you recommend? I was thinking of the 3.94 but after speaking to the bloke that I'm getting to fit it, he said the 4.25 was mental in his 2.1 Mk1 Golf. So just looking for some advice, think it's more aimed for RobT, m0rk, stu.... but if anyone else got any advice...

  16. 16v ABF final drive swap

    Hi Folks, Any ideas with this one? I am binned off with the final drive on my 16v ABF engine (99 Ibiza). I reckon it should have a 02A box not 020 with a final drive of 3.684. Is this correct? This is pretty relaxed and I'm not really using 4th especially 5th much on events before back on...

    A final ode to one of my favourite cars, the LCR

    I am now within a few short days of changing my allegiance and switching from a run of 5 SEAT's on the trot (Me: 2 x LCR & 1 x Ibiza TDi FR, Wife: Arosa 1.0MPi, Ibiza 1.2S Mk4). I've truly enjoyed all the SEAT cars we've owned in the last 5 years, and don't look back with regret on any of them...
