    I hate being beaten by a AHQ polo :(

    Hi guys, i have a '99 ABF'd Ibiza, and the loss of power is just silly. It had a service 3 months ago, including plugs, leads, filters, pumps and oil, and it flew. However, my oil sender switch went a week after ownership so i replaced that and refilled the oil, and now it is just a slug (so...
  2. I Hate To Ask, But a Guestimate On Value...

    ... would be appreciated! Its for my 2004 04 Leon Cupra TDi, fully standard apart from a REVO map taking it to 185 and a new Kenwood single CD player! 97k Its got a full service history with receipts for everything including tyres and also MAP sensors and stuff, new battery, 2 keys, new...
  3. Bought an FR. hate the ride.

    I finally bought my fr on friday and love everything about it except... the firmness is breaking my back. I test drove the car and didn't notice the hard ride then, I suppose it was just that I was on smoother roads. I got the car home and been driving it around and, my god. My girlfriend is...

    I hate to moan about my Altea becuase i love it... But....

    She has started smoking... and not even the sort that nicotine patches can sort! Coupled with drinking lots of water off it went to SEAT for a pressure test! SEAT wanted £65 to diagnose the problem... Worst case has happened and its my head gasket / cylinder head with a minimum cost of some...

    can you put a towbar on the back of a cupra ?

    can you put a towbar on the back of a cupra ? i'm currently looking at Golf GTi's but the Cupra is sooo cheap it would be rude not to consider one. The only downside is i'd prefer a 3 door not so much for looks but because of my height i tend to sit in the back. Anyway towbars, its not for a...

    please dont hate me for asking

    think i know the answer because of the price and how easy it is is this any good - did a search for demon shine found nothing
  7. Hate Cupras!!! MAF!

    Lol, joking... Think I am officially a "proper" cupra owner now. Since Friday I've put in new spark plugs, and 4 new coil packs and now I think my MAF has gone! Typical! Friday I said "I haven't had a Coil Pack go yet!" Famous last words. Today, I had an A3 behind me, let him pass, then went...
  8. Shhh...its oh so quiet...and I hate it!

    My Leon FR is furiously quiet, and I'm kind of annoyed by it! I would like therefore to replace the exhaust, but I don't want a chavtastic sounding car, just one that sounds a bit grumbly. Ironically, my FR sounds louder when its in Park, than it does when engaged in Drive, hence my...

    I Hate The Dpf Filter!!!

    Hello all, I am so so so annoyed with my car now, the light has come on again to make this the 9th time now! The car is only just two months old with 4k on the clock, the driving is a lot of motorway and a/b roads but I am trying to drive on the motorway in fifth a bit so its above 2.5k to...
  10. I hate my car right now

    Since I bought my cupra 3 months ago Ive spent £200 fixing the bloody thing. One of the main reasons I bought the car was due to the so called reliability of it I have fitted 2 coil packs so far the last one was done on thursday nite and what happens, another f***ing one blew again today...
  11. I Hate Halloween!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    How good is halloween ay!? Walked out to my cordy this morning to find a stone laying ontop of my car... thought it was a bit strange but never mind... opened my car door n had to take a second look!!! Some lil sh**s have put my rear screen in!!! How fantastic is that! Not that its bad...

    Sometimes I hate my car

    Last week I noticed that my car was suffering from knackered slow fan syndrome. A couple of days ago I got into my car to find a quagmire in the passenger side footwell. I'm pretty sure my door seal has gone. When these cars work, they are awesome. But when they go wrong it is gutting. I am a...

    I Hate My Stealership!!!!

    OMG today I decided to have my 40.000 mile service a little early (38.500) as shes got a loss of power and was running a little lumpy and I had found a fault to do with camshaft bank 1 adjustment. I told them about all this on the phone whilst booking her in "no problem sir we'll look at it" I...

    Help! + Why I'm a numpty + Why I hate Seat MK

    I often advise anyone with a little mechanical experience to save cash and change their own brake pads. Well it is usually cheaper unless you are a muppet like myself. I was undoing the alen bolt on the back of the caliper and the hit the brake line sheering it off at the capiper! GUTTED is not...

    Pads & Discs, Dont Hate... Read...

    bought a set of Galfer pads to replace the knackered ones on my LCR, my mechanic at the time told me that the discs have a little lip on them and may need to be replaced the next time round, to which I acknowledged. Now, having had these pads for a few weeks now, I have been driving round and I...
  16. I hate my work car park.

    Why is it that people disrespect your car? I decided the car needed a good clean yesterday so spent roughly 4 hours washing and detailing it. Today, i drive the car to work and park it in the normal spot in the car park. After work i come out to see a huge dent in the rear quarter panel...

    Gotta Hate Car Salesmen

    I ordered my new Ibiza Fr 1.8 petrol a week Saturday ago. The guy said it would take 7 working days for it to be delivered. We are now 9 working days later and I phoned him tonight and its going to be 'Monday or Tuesday'. Totally raging. If its not here by Monday im telling him to stick...

    Don't you just hate it when...

    .....You spend 3 hours on Saturday washing, chamios'ing & polishing your car to perfection, then for it to pi$$ down when you need to do a 20 mile motorway journey with enough surface spray, big massive dirty lorries and puddles to totally wash away your efforts :( Oh well - she'll have to...
  19. I hate the wet

    I am pi**ed off. I just got hammerd off the lights by a pug 406 estate. I am driving a leon fr tdi revo. I just cudnt get any traction and at all. Does anyone have any decent driving styles in the wet to get power down better.
  20. I Hate The Lcr Cd Changer And Stereo

    No Message, I Just Hate The Useless ******* Thing. Never Worked Properly In Two Lcr's That I've Had.
