low

I have a September 2007 FR TDI, which for various resaons is very low mileage (8.7K). The second sheduled service would normally be due around the 20K mark but I only had the 1st service done in March 2009 (this was overdue). What should I do? Do I get it serviced in September anyway to...

Took our 1.2S to the local village garage for its 5yr old MOT - after last years effort at the dealer where I'm convinced they created a couple of hundred pounds worth of work. It passed but the garage had initially failed it due to the headlamp aim being too low. They tweaked them up at no...

just bought the leon. the oil was low slightly. i put my foot down a bit when the oil was low and this was mainly down to the bonnet not opening. took it to the garage this morning and it was a bit noisy. opened it up and the oil was low. put 2lt of oil in and drove to the petrol station. the...

Hi I'm new to SCN and have very recentley upgraded my little ibiza to the cordoba sx. I'm not really sure if there is a problem or not but i expected a little more pull in lower gears which there is not! its done 80 000 and everything else is spot on, I just feel its missing something from...

As I slow down to a stop, I seem to get an unlocking sound from the rear O/S door, any ideas please?

Hi all, Had the car a week and have changed the Temp Sender from a Black to a Green one as I was getting the G62 faults on VAG-COM. Got the replacement Greeny (059-919-501A) from Fleabay and fitted. Two long test drives an dthe temps are showing funny. Yesterday would go above 75c...

can anyone help me with this? ive noticed that sometiems at low revs, when pulling off normally on the fist start of the day that i get a bit of a whining noise, almost exagerated buzzing. anyone know what it could be?

My oil pressure light was randomly beeping/flashing every so often, it could go fine for a few of days no issues then randomly come on. I changed the oil pressure switch & oil/filter. It was perfect for about a week+ then today whilst driving through town it came on a couple of times. Im...

My new mk2 FR seems to have very low headlight beams. there is a nice crisp beam pattern but even with the adjuster set to zero the beams seem a bit low. Anyone?

I have been noticing lately that when I am in low revs, my car feels flat up until the turbo kicks in. I thought it might just be me getting used to the car but driving up a hill to work, I know its not me and it does seem to be the car. The car is a TDI 130 and I've been told that it could...

What should i be seeing on the boost gauge, it seems to spkie at 7PSI and holds a constant 5PSI, this is on a BAM LCR the range is -22vac to 7 psi.

well put the coilovers on today , i think it might be a tad low as i cant get over a lowerd kerb (as in an etrance to a driveway) without the exhaust scraping , just thot id show her off at the current eide height commonly know as hooooped!:D [/URL][/IMG]

just had my hicon GT's fitted today and i had the backs lowered as far as they would go down and the front i had a little tinker with. here are some picture of before i lowered it and after but would like to know how low you have your front and rear setup on these coilover. i took it for a spin...

Hi, looking at other owners pics on here my exhaust(LCR) seems to hang pretty low. I can easily get my hand in to wash the hole top of the tip - is anyone elses like this or is it close to the bumper cut out? Im guessing the bushes might be past there best but just interested if its normal or...

i have lowered my mk1 leon on g-max sports shocks and springs by 20mm and i keep catching the ground every where if i take the car out on the back roads and get the speed above 40 i keep grounding it out! i have mud flaps on my car and i think it is them some time but i think it is the sump...

Alright folks, Got an 07 cupra on Weds, chuffed to bits with it. Got a revo stage 1 done y'day - even more chuffed. Took it to a rolling road, dyno'd at 281hp - not as chuffed! With all the talk of +300hp i had my heart set on it. The engineer said there might be a boost leak on it...

as above i am experiencing a small judder when i put the foot down at about 1200 rpm from 3rd gear onwards. the judder clears and stops after a second or 2 and pulls well after that. does this sound like the clutch?

Due to 'cheap' maintenance a new engine was needed in my early Mk 1 Leon TDi. The ECU had originally been chipped by Superchips to give 140bhp. New engine only gives 110 bhp but an unusual torque curve which is almost straight until 4,000rpm. Obviously the ferocious low end grunt is now...

ive got my eyes on a set of mk3 cupra alloys and im going to lower it to just on springs but not sure how much by. i want it to go as low as it can really so was thinking 60mm drop? do you think that will cause any issues?
