hot

Hello there. I own a 2001 / 51 Seat Toledo Tdi 110 SE with full service history. This car always starts perfectly when cold, no problems at all. However when the car is warm, although it always starts in can take up to 10 seconds of cranking before it will fire. The glow plugs have been...

ive noticed that my oil is getting rather hot on motorways, about 115 when travelling at 90-100. is this normal for a 130pd sport? its got cupra bumpers so are they restricting the air flow? btw the oil level is fine and so is the water. cheers.

Evening all, Driving home from work this evening, i noticed that there was no hot air coming from the Vents. After changing the controls to maximum heat the temperature changed slightly, but even then it was JUST about warm. I did notice that the engine temp gauge was flitting between...

Afternoon all, Lazy acceleration advice needed::help: This past week, my usually fantastic LC has just not been quite as eager to pull when the turbo spools up. Yes it goes, but the urgency with which it usually dispatches 50 to 80 in third on the motorway has gone... not so much a wall...

In hot weather after a decent run, when you restart whilst engine still hot (16v) the engine surges up to 2.5k rpm then settles at idle. Air leak of some description somewhere? :shrug:

Got back from PowerStation in Tewkesbury today where I ran my LCR on the rollers with a group of guys from another forum I visit. I am a little confused with the results though: 241.8 BHP at the fly, but only 150 BHP at the wheels. 1) should my transmission losses be that high! 2) if the...

I have a leon fr tdi revo and have noticed the past few days that the power has died off. The kick in the back when flooring it n 3rd n 4th seems less. Is this because of the hot weather, If yes WHY??? Thanks

ok you lot My FMIC has made an excellent improvement. However.... Recently in the hot weather, when stuck in traffic, I've seen my temp gauge go above the std 90 that it usually sits at, in fact, the dial has gone all the way around another 1/4, so just on the edge of "normal working...

In the last few days I have had no hot air coming out of my Climate Control system (With Air Con On & Off) in my Ibiza TDI Sport. Even if I switch the temperature up to maximum it still blows cold air, this is even after the car has driven 20 miles. Guessing it could be a Thermostat or...

Hi All, on a very short trip (couple of miles, and no big traffic jams), a warning beep started - so I guess I'm short on petrol or washer fluid....only to glance at the dash and the temperature gauge is sitting at 120deg (max) mark! It never normally shifts from the upright position...
