steering

Hi folks just new to the forum:D My dad has just bought a 09 leon fr, and has a nice wee prezy to him i got him the ipod cable (the one that fits into the cup holder) with USB nd AUX cables... the problem is I can only get the stereo to act as speakers as opposed to being able to use the...

does anyone know if the same airbag is used on both the wheel with buttons (MFSW) and the one without buttons? Thanks

Hi tried to change my springs the other day but we got stumped by the ball joint on the steering arm. When trying to undo the 19mm nut underneath the bolt just spins and we couldnt get it off. There is a 6mm allen key at the end of the bolt but the nut is so tight that this just rounds when...

I just drove my brothers MK4 golf 130 tdi and his steering seems to be much lighter than my leon. I have a 110 tdi. Was there a noticeable difference between the 2 models, or is there something wrong with my steering? Thanks Andy

i'm coming at this from having steering that made no real noise (other than what you'd expect) until a few weeks back. since then when i'm parking (so very low speeds) the steering doesn't sound too healthy at either end of the lock, i reckon it starts when i'm in the last 3/4 of each lock if...

Have a problem with me steering.... When turning left as you do a couple of terms the sterring seems to go loose, when driving along the steering wont return to the centre, you have to manually do this... When turning right all is fine...... returns to centre as normal... Any suggestions

i drove a seat ibiza today an 06 plate and the steering was really light, axtually most cars with power steering ive drove have alot lighter steering that my seat leon. the fluid level is high, so i do not understand why mine is harder than most cars with power steering

Hi Guys, I did post a thread not so long ago about some electrical issues and I thought this fell under them. I replaced my battery and fixed the starting and stereo - although Coolant and Brake Fluid Warnings come on every morning still for no reason. Anyway - My steering is still a bit dodgy...

I know I'm not the only one with this problem. I'm sure that I read on here somewhere that LCR steering wheels and gear knobs are actually trimmed in red leather and are painted/dyed/whatever in black. Are paints available and has anyone tried them?

Really need some help on this, when I turn the steering wheel left or right instead of centre-ing when I let go, the wheels turn full lock left or right on their own :confused: Also on the passenger side where I had adjustable droplinks fitted to prevent driveshaft rub successfully, it's now...

Just curiousity as it was brought up in a readers ride thread what does your LCR 225 steering wheel look like, mine has an indentation at the 2 and 10 position for thumb grips but apparently others ave just a round rim Adam

Anyone else have this? red showing through. Anybody tackled this in anyway?

decided that im going to start throwing some money at my FR after going to edition this year..one thing that ive always fancied is a small momo possibly 300mm..anybody updated their steering wheels? pics, specs and prices please :)

Hi guys, Right got a bit of an issue here, my LCR's steering wheel is off center, in order to go 'straight' the red stripe sits above the fuel meter, probably about an inch to the right, if you let go of the steering wheel the car pulls to the left, even when rolling. Its been to a VW...

Has anyone actually done this? If so what settings were used? Also how much did they charge? Thanks.

I posted in COrdoba section- but no one hardly in there so a link to my question! http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=234550

Whenever it has been raining, my power steering plays up, kinda locks or sticks when im turning?? any ideas as to whats causing it? ive checked the reservoir and the level looks fine? im guessing it could be either the pump? or the belt? any help/advice is very much appreciated

as the thread title says. when i brake fairly sharp the steering wheel judders. anyone have a clue?

Hi all, The last few weeks i've noticed my steering's been a bit tight left and right. When turning it seems a bit more difficult than normal but nothing too bad. Today I went round a corner and the power steering just gave up and I pulled over. I turned the car off then back on and it was...

Hi everyone Sorry for my first post being such a seemingly daft question. I'm going to look at a 2004 Ibiza tdi fr on Saturday. I've just re-read the advert and noticed that it doesn't mention reach adjustment of the steering wheel, only rake. Does the car have reach and rake adjustment...
