Early start this morning, drove to Volkswagen Racing in Milton Keynes (42.2mpg) to let them see if they could switch off the side airbags on my Cupra so the new seats could go in.
They were flat out building up racing Leons, and there were a few other interesting cars there inc 2 KTM X-bows...
Guys, bit of advice needed.... I need discs and pads all round on my Cupra, at the moment the rears are shot (discs had it) and the fronts drone badly when breaking from high speed. The discs and pads I think are non genuine which doesn't help, would I be best getting genuine Seat discs and pads...
Hi guys
Bad news - i was told by a local tuning company that they did a 50/30 lowering kit for my cupra - i called them up 5 mins ago to book it in and now they say they dont do it they can only offer a 30mm drop all round!! Bit p*ssed of now but not sire what to do - i will have the stock...
I'm looking to replace the two 225/40/18's on the front of my FR170 Tdi. I'm not driving it 'balls out' all the time, and I would only class my driving style in this car to be gentle with the odd 'spirited' 5 mins. The car does a quite a few miles up and down the motorway (for work use) and I...
Hi ive just changed my tip and when removing the pipes i found the one that joins to the rocker is dumping a fair bit of oil into the tip. Its the black thing that has a flat round top, is this some sort of crankcase breather? any way i can reduce the oil escaping to the tip?
Cheers

Hi all,

Hi Guys

Today i went to view a nice...
Hi all,
I have a Seat Leon 1.9TDi 130 and I'm looking at replacing the discs and pads all round. I was wondering if people knew what the part numbers are where I can by straight replacements. I'm not looking at upgrading at all as they are more than adequate at the moment.
Any suggestions...
Hi
Since having a couple of new tyres fitted, one appears to have a very slow leak round the rim (6 year old alloy ... but visually not in too bad nick). The folks that fitted the tyre have re-seated it twice now and it still looses a few pounds pressure over a couple of weeks. They now say...
I live in a nice quiet corner of West Sussex. My Evo has been parked on my drive at night for the last five years and I've never had any trouble. I collected my Kiwi Yellow Ibiza 16v on Wednesday, and Saturday morning I get up to find the NSR tyre has been slashed and the rear wing has been...

I have just got a 007 diverter valve and have fitted it the same way as the original one.
Have been reading other threads and have noticed a lot of people turning it round, so pressure is in the bottom and side pipe goes back into the air feed to make the valve louder! Is this correct and is...

Hi people
When fitting my forge tip today, my mate told me that i have had my forge dv fitted the wrong way round. I had it fitted like no.1 ref image, but he recons it should be fitted like no.2, because the pressure is at the intercooler end and so needs to push against the piston in the...
