seat leon cupra r

Nope this is not a wind-up. :) Care of SEAT UK I have been contacted by Brett from EVO Magazine. EVO need to urgently get their hands on a cosmetically 'un-modified' Mk1 Leon Cupra R (either 210 or 225) for a photo-shoot that is taking place this Friday (29th Jan). They are doing a used car...

hi all, please help before i prematurely lose my hair! basically ive fitted my sony f7700 cd player into my lcr and the rears work fine inc the tweeters. however in the front the left side woofer works but not the tweeter, but on the drivers side its the other way round. ive bought a new...

Hi all, this sounds like a worn bush to me but i'll pick your brains anyway. When driving over uneven road, I get this knocking sound from the N/S/F suspension as the car rumbles over it. The sound is as rapid as the car goes over the knobbles in the road. I am ruling out the shock absorber...

hi all,had ma leon for a while now so thot i better put some pics up of it :) Thanks for looking :D

Am i correct that if i change my clocks to the LCR ones that it would have to paired up to the ecu with vag-com?

hi guys just had my lcr on the rolling road,produced 297bhp and 258ftlb,its got a decat and revo stage 2 map was expecting around 270ish so im well pleased :D guy sayed the flat spot in the graph feels like poof airfeed

Picked up my LCR yesterday, on the drive home noticed a few things im not entirely happy with. Cant really complain though as I got it for a good price :) Came from a Fabia vRS, so not used to petrol VAG engines yet! Anyway, here goes 1. Temp gauge sits at 60 sitting on the motorway...

Hi guys, I've been on here a while learning from you all and sticking my 10 pence in here and there. So i thought it was time i did a readers ride thread, good times eh :D I've wanted an lcr for years and in dec 08 after looking at focus st's and astra vxr's i decided seat still did it...

I keep swinging too and fro about whether to spend money on my 52-plate LCR210. It's at just over 98k miles and I love it to bits, but I'm unsure about whether it's worth spending a lot of money on it or not. I have a list of things that I'd love to do, including fixing the paint-work...

Hi all I couldn't find an exact answer, but what's the standard boost in psi on a lcr?? Cheers :)

Hello all, I need a favour, i have risen/lowered and changed the alloys on my car so much over the past 6 months that i have no idea anymore of how much it is actually now lowered by. Could any of you LCR owners out with standard suspenion be kind enough to measure from the ground to the...

going to buy a LCR in the next month or so wondering what are the main problems to look for on them?? quite a few with high milage, 80k+ are they anythin to worry about??

Hi as i mentioned in a earlier post my LCRis sounding a bit funny when ticking over, i have had the bonnet up today and the noise seems to be coming from around the coolent tank or the three plugs to the side of it. Now im gonna sound like a idiot but what are these 3 plugs because they look...

Righto Ive recently fitted a New Coolant temp sensor to sort my fueling and temp Gauging readings which it has done... But like last time when i go and start it for the first time in the morning is totally fine but sometimes can be in limp mode... But lets say i go to the petrol station and...

In the last couple of days my LCR has backfired twice, I'm not talking about popping, I mean gunshot like backfires. It does it when not fully warm with a bit of boost, not WOT whilst accelerating but lifting off slightly to avoid wheel-spin. I have checked for error codes and ge the following...

Hi all, As some of you knows, I've had a really irritation problem regarding boost and CF's 2 weeks ago my fuel pump went and I had a new one. I then out of interest asked revo regadring a stage 2 upgrade for my LCR and then got the infoimation, "You already had stage 2, we did this so you...

Hi guys,just wondering if a decat my lcr will it pop and bang?the exhaust is stock,thanks.
