speed

cold weather seems to have bought on a slight creak/rubbing noise from the rear suspension as I go over speed bumps....anyone have/had this? Is it the rear bushes or possibly something else?

Would it go in? my ibiza cupra R has 5 gears and leons have 6. Are they interchangable? No faults with mine or anything, just wondering. Did a search but i got nothing back.

I am thinking of buying a Seat Ibiza 1.8 20VT FR/ Cupra to replace my current Corsa 1.8 SRI. The main gripe I have about my existing car, is that apart from the shoddy handling, it desperately needs a 6th gear on the motorway for better fuel consumption, less engine wear and a quieter ride...

Hi all couldnt really find much info on the 5 speed while searching so here it goes, i know you can do a diy on a 6 speed shifter to make it a short shifter, well reduce the distance between gears, is there any way the 5 speed shifter found on 5 speed boxes obviously can be turned into short...

Hi, I think I've got some kind of air leak on my ibiza. I've had a couple of problems with it which I think are linked: 1. When idling all of a sudden the car just decides to cut out, then it takes its time to start but eventually will start and run perfectly. 2. When idling suddenly the...

Well after reading through the forums i have come to conclusion this is my problem car runs fine until up to Temp then cuts out electrics are all fine just engine dies will turn over but not start let it cool down is fine again until up to temp then dies Question is how much does...

Hi all, hope you can help. VAG COM says I have intermitant engine speed sensor failure. Where is this puppy and how easy is it to replace? Thanks...

didn't go for much in way of options, bluetooth, 18's, side skirts, that's it. wanted rear side airbags but that would likely have meant factory order whereas the dealer is relatively confident there'll be a car of my spec somewhere in UK so i might have in within the month. happy enough with...

Right, i have identified my recently purchased LCR has this fault with the low speed fans not running with the a/c on. [:@] I Will be fitting the new fan/fans myself but have a few questions... :help: Do both fans need to be replaced (one small one large on my LCR) ? Does anyone know...

Just wondering what the fastest speed any one has done in their LCR? ( on private roads of course). Been on a 350 mile trip this weekend the longest since owning the car march this year and it didnt seem like it would ever stop, well until the police stopped me!!!

17968 what does it mean?[:@]

I was wondering whether the 6 speed box improves performance at all? or whether its stronger and can handle the extra power better? I assume they are easy fits as they are on the ibiza cupra R??

Hi Guys What should my LCR be idling at when warm? Seems to idle at 750rpm and boost gauge sits at -18psi I'm sure it used to idle a little bit quicker and sit at -20psi Does it even matter? Just curious. LCR revo stage 2, Milltek Cat back with Piper d.pipe. Cheers

Does anyone know where the hell the little bugger is mounted??? (old school non ecu controlled diesel)

rite so im on a run way just to clear this up, my mk3 cupra is completly standard except from porker rims with 195/40/16, seeing wot my top speed would b and i got 145 'ish' mph which i thought was pretty impressive. then i fit a piper x viper kit and i only get 135 mph. do u think this is due...

Hi,i have done a search and can't find anything about this so here goes...I recently bought a ibiza tdi 130 and when the engine warms up on idle there is a lot of movement on the engine as if a mount has gone,but i got it up on the ramp at work and had a look and all engine mounts look ok,when i...

Alright guys, the time has come for my car that the resistor has burnt out and I now have no slow speed fan. If your sitting thinking "What the fook is he talking about?" then I advise you take a search on the forum, a search on Google then check out your own car. Basically, all VAG cars...

Hi all. Hot my 1.9 tdi a few weeks ago, and i noticed something the other day. whoever has had it before me, they've taken the yellow dial surround things off, and i've noticed it looks worse because of it. anyone got any idea where i could get replacements? and what exactly are they? are...

07 plate FRTDi 3700 miles on it and having a strange problem with engine idle. Basically get the car up to normal running temp and the tick-over when idling at stand still sits at 1000rpm instead of the usual 750rpm. I can rev it but it makes no difference to it. IF i turn the car off...

Is there any chance someone with a LCR could just log any block. I just need the rpm at idle. Cheers Tony.
