About 2/3 of a loop of spring coil flew off my car this morning as I was driving down the road - from the front passenger side (looks like from the very bottom of the spring). Still seems to drive ok, but does make a nasty noise when turning the wheel more than half way (I guess its the...

I have an IHI turbo which is the TD based one from a Mitsi and am looking for a stiffer actuator ( or just spring ) but Mike @ JBS is having trouble find one does any one have a clue for me ???

Hi all, ive contacted Bonrath for some lowering caps. They've asked for the part number for my original spring plates. Does anyone have etka, or even better a leon in bits so they can check? Thanks :rolleyes:

Hi! Well I only picked it up yesterday and already love it! It's a '03 Seat Arosa 1.4 16v Sport in black. Completely standard with the exception of the Scorpian back exhaust. These are the only pics I have of it at the mo, with the bf's Lupo GTi :)

Hello All, Is anyone running a Mk1 Leon FR TDI150 with a set of Eibach Pro Springs (25/30 drop) How much lower does it look than before when it had the standard FR suspension? Is it a true 25/30 mm drop on the standard FR suspension setup, which I assume is lower than the non-FR...

Just had the car serviced and the garage found that the front offside coilover spring has broken the top coil off (eibach pro street s) , would I have to replace both front springs ? Only been on the car just over 2 years , and only doing about 9000 miles a year , would have thought it would...

Hi Guys My wife reversed off of the drive today and didn't drive any further after hearing a DOING! from the driver's side front. After her knight in shining armour(ie my Dad!) removed the front wheel he found about half a coil (3 inches) sitting in the bottom cup. I have all ready...

Considering 35mm on the front and 40mm on the rear (FK Hightec Springs). Will it rub? problems with the ARB? Anybody with expereince with this set? using them on stock dampers. Thanks.

I know this has been asked many times, but i've spent hours looking through all the posts relating to it, and not come up with a clear cut answer. My cupra is currently running jabbasport stage 1, std turbo etc (think boost peaks at about 20psi, and drops to 12-13psi), altho i can't say i've...

After some prices on what I could expect to pay to have springs fitted. I was considering coilovers, but money is tight and with the car being new the parts will (I hope) last for a bit. So what have people paid to have springs or coilovers fitted. and can anyone recomend anyone in somerset...

Hi, One of the front springs on my car has snapped near the end of the coil so I was wondering where would be the best and cheapest place to get a replacement set (presume it's best to replace both on the same axle?)? Would go lowered uprated like Eibach etc but the cars done near 100k so...

Just dropped my Leon Cupra off at the garage to have a new front right suspension spring fitted. It made the oddest noise pulling off the drive yesterday with full left hand lock - a loud "doingggg" sound. :confused: Then driving home it just didn't fell right, the steering wheel shook...
