height

I fitted std cupra suspension to my tdi,the car has starfish alloys and cupra facelift bumpers but it still seams higher than other cars, ie not much different to before.Now it measures 26" from the lip of the arch to the floor. Dont suppose anyone fancies measuring a facelift cupra for me...

Hi, Had 2 new springs fitted to the front of my car but one side of the car now looks to sit higher than the other? What could be causing this? Thought the springs may just need time to settle but whilst one side is fine the other looks a good few cm higher for some reason? Cheers

Hi all, just fiddling with the height of the coiolvers at the moment. I was told the rear should be quite a bit higher than the front for handling reasons... is this true and how much higher as an indication? Cheers, Dan

i have looked in the search to try and find out the standard ride height for a ref sport tdi ith btcc kit. they say they have sports suspension and im gatheing they lowered them a bit and am wondering how much? Any help will be great. Cheers

Hey guys Im a new owner to an ibiza cupra but not too vag cars and I have a query about the height of the drivers seat. Is it just me or is the lowest position really high?? Compared to my mk3 golf gti it seem even in the lowest position to be too high especially at the front...

I am only a little 'un (5ft2) and I have my seat just over 3/4 way to the top. Any higher and my feet kinda dangle :blink: Do you have your seat low and how tall are ya?? Have you struggled? Thought it might interest others to see how they strap into their car and their comparitive height [B)]

Whats the best way to make sure that both the front coilovers and both the rear coilovers are set to the same height. When i put them on the car i made sure that both sides had the same amount of threads showing and were set to the same height. Today i measured from the centre of the wheel to...

As title, does anyone have a 2.0 16v SX that's on standard suspension settup? I'm after some measurements :) Pete

Can anyone with a standard LCR with standard alloys measure the distance from the middle of the outer wheel arch to the floor please. Problem. Car was up on axle stands at the weekend and left overnight. The next morning when I dropped it back down on the wheels the suspension was 1"...

can someone please give me height sizes from a non lowerd fr please(mines a 56 plate if that matters).i want to see how much mines has dropped by but cant remember what the height was before lowering. not sure if theres a correct way to measure i was thinking either from the ground to the sill...

Hi people, Can anyone tell me if it is possible to adjust the height of the clutch pedal on an LCR. The height and biting point on mine is much higher than my old cupra's was and not as stiff either. Getting it serviced in a few weeks and will get them to do it if it can be done. Cheers.

anyone know how low the 56 plate sport is compared to the basic models? I take it its about 10 mm?

My dads car see below for spec is a Sept 2005 model on 55 plate, for this being the top of the range model for its time, why hasn't it got a height adjustable passenger seat? even my ibiza has one, and when we realised the leon didn't we were very disappointed. is there anything we can do to...

Took my Coilovers off the car for cleaning and to protect them from the winter crud, they are all washed and sparkly now. When i had them on i had them very low and the handling was pretty crap. So what would people suggest as the best height for best handling, also am i right in assuming...

the height adjuster on the steering wheel for my car has come really lose and i was wondering if anyone could tell me what to do to tighten it up??

The fronts seem obvious but just wandered how you adjust the rear height with coilovers on the leon - seeing how the spring and shock are seperate? Is it the spring that is adjusted or the damper? or both?:confused:

:lol: Hi All Had my Leon DSG a week great car. Only problem is the passenger seat has no height adjustment. Seat UK cannot supply a new seat & to fit a seat base sounds like a dock yard job. Never been done. So what I need is a friendly Euro dealer who can supply a (LHD)...

Hi all, Dont know how many of you read my thread "Why O Why" but i had a massive gearbox failure the otha week, just spoken to a mechanic and he said that the box didnt fail from the impact like suggested previousely, its due to the car being lowered!!!! I fitted some FK Highsport coilovers a...

I have fitted a new Reiger F2-like front bumper to my ibiza and it looks VERY low Its 70mm off the ground and looks like it will fall off if I hit some gravel on the road :D what do other people have and is it workable ? Cheers Rob

I took the plastic surroung off from around the fog lamps (pre Cupra body kit) to see if they were easy - not too bad but did manage to scratch the bumper trying :censored: Hopefully it will polish out :( ... I can see the two torx srrews to take the unit out. There is another smaller torx...
