Hello all, here's my dilemma I like to do as much work on my LC as I can but it's a ball ache to get it up in there and on axel stands to work on it safely. Now my cars lowered I have to drive it on to 4 engineering bricks (2 each side) to be able to get the standard jack of death out, put on...

hey all, bit of a random one but can anyone point me in the right direction of getting a set of jacking point covers for my white 16v cupra sport abf, cant find them on the net anywhere (unless I'm not looking hard enough), and not in any of my local breakers yards. don't have to be white as I...

Been looking into jacking the car up as I'm taking my front wheels off to get tyres fitted.I know its been discussed on here before, so did a bit of searching on how to jack the car up without crushing the seam where the side skirts attach as this would damage them. Looked about for the trolley...

Hi Guy's, I probably sound really stupid asking this, but does anyone know of an easy way of put on the caps on the side skirts that come off at the jacking points? I took them off to swap my wheels, but i'll be damed if i can get them back on. :cry: It can't only be me that's had this...

Hi all Can anyone tell me if its a common problem that the jacking point covers fall off. I had a tire replaced a couple of weeks ago, when i went back to my car everything was in place, so i drove home. When i got home i noticed the cover was missing. I rang the tire garage and they said...

going to pain the calipers on the motor tomorrow, got myself a trolley jack last weekend to do it but i want to get the car on blocks rather than just on the jack itself. where is the best place on the car to do this, on the same part of the chassis as the jack goes or somewhere else? edit -...

Ok so i took the cover off to jack up the car and the bludy thing wont go back on. There must be a nack to it! Hhheeeelllpppp!!!! cheers!

this might be a stupid question but could some one tell me where the jacking points are on my lcr? could i use my trolley jack on the normal points?

My 2 front jacking covers on my cupra skirts wont stay on. Does anyone have any tips? It seems the previous owner superglued them on just before selling the car. Is this just mine or has anyone else had problems with these and what did you do to sort it?

Hi all, anyone knows if jacking point front covers on Aero side skirts can be ordered alone without whole skirts package? if yes, anyone knows p/n? thanks B

I’m a total amateur :blink: and am trying to paint replacement side skirt jacking point covers myself. I have applied two coats of paint (from spray can) and the finish is a little under par. Should I be lightly sanding down between coats with wet & dry paper etc and again before lacquer ...

Had a go at the weekend at giving my calipers and wheels a thorough clean but failed miserably at the first hurdle. Got a trolley jack and stands but the jacking point is on a pinch on the sill, the trolley jack just about lifted the car but with a lot of creaking and the stand just looked...

How the hell do you get them back on so they fit flush and tight ? Had front one off this afternoon and spent about an hour trying to get it back on flush but it just stands proud about 2mm on the bottom edge as it curves round under the car and you can knock it off again with very little...
