    lets talk sealant

    Now i know my clay, polish, wax routine but what about sealant? Does it go before or after wax? :confused: What are the extra benifits of using it in my routine? :headhurt:
  2. Lets talk MAFs

    Ok ive seen talk of people putting different MAFs on there cars like say putting one off a 2.0tdi on a 1.9tdi and this is supposed to aid performance ? Im going to replace my MAF at some point in the near future, is it best to just get the part number off my current one and get the same again...

  4. lets talk cam wear now

    The car is an 04 leon cupra tdi, standard, on 115,000miles. After finding that I had a worn turbo, it now seems my cam is showing signs of wear on the lobes ("hammering" and scratching). This has also taken out the corresponding valve followers. They are not knackered yet but im sure they are...
  5. New to the site! - Talk to me about Leon's!

    Hi there, New to site and new to the exciting world of SEAT! I’m currently driving a 04 1.6 Fiat Stilo (remapped, lowered, Induction, etc etc) which I love but I keep seeing these sexy Leon’s driving about, which I really like the look of! I’ve also heard you can get the Audi DSG gearbox...
  6. Talk me out of it Mk 1 to Mk 2

    Hi All, Just had a cal from my local dealer that they've just aquired an '07 Mk2 Leon Ref Sport TDI with the fully body-kit and 18" wheels (mmmmmmm). I've got a TDI Leon Cupra at the mo. Now I've had a quick drive of a Sport 140hp before and to be honest it felt no slower that the...

    (calling all gti/cupra owners-) lets talk about insurance...

    Hi guys, Get my 1st year no claims on the Ibiza in jan, knew it was wishful thinking but rang direct line just to get them to have a look at prices for a 8v + 16v, 1.8 + 2.0. Turns out they wont let me on any variant until im 21. gutted :cry: confused.com usually just spews out...
  8. Lets talk clutches lol

    I think I need a new clutch, well, am pretty certain I do. I think I'm still driving around on the original one (Would be 10years/50k miles and starting to go smelly). What clutch options are available for it? In the various VW's I've had previously people have robbed clutches from various...
  9. Someone please talk me out of it!

    I currently drive a rover 200...... yeah i know, but i got it cheap. I really want something a bit more substantial and a leon cupra seems ideal. I have two children so need something a bit bigger and also fancy a car with a bit of poke. The only things putting me off are insurance -...

    Talk about Bling Bling

    Stumbled upon this little peach on one Czech tuning website. Its a mk2 GTI 16v with what looks like a lot of ££££ spent on it. Except for the gold wheels looks quite tastefully modded as well. Cant really call it practical with that kind of interior, but IMO is nice. Some modifications include 4...
  11. cant talk to the ECU

    for some reason, it says the kline is stuck, or cannot connect to the ecu. the laptop is fine, cable works on others etc, only worry is something may have got wet on the RR day sat. Anything i could try to see if i have a wiring problem? Thanks ppl
  12. TDI or 20v need to talk to owners

    Right here's the dilema: approx 12k to spend on new car. If I drive to work I do 85ish miles a day - but sometimes catch the train. If the other half transfers jobs near to home I can use her Lupo TDi for the mileage and have a petrol cupra at home, If she doesn't then I'll need the Cup TDi...
