Car in for 60,000 service today and the dealers have quoted me £290 for the cam belt change, if required. I contacted an independent garage who quoted £278! Is this about right? For you guys who run FR TDi's are you finding you need to change cambelt @ 60k or more like 80k?

Onto my second Cupra now, I must be mad :D
Bough this after the Cupra
Was a gorgeous car, but I needed some fun again and for the mpg it did I could have had something much faster. So up for sale it went, was looking for a swap for either a LCR or another Cupra. A month down the line...
righto, seems to be a popular kind of thread :)
bearing in mind its not been driven properly since August 2008, and it's now april 2009 i'd like to you to take a guess at what (god forbid) it might fail on, i can rule out the following:
Wheel Bearings + Hubs - all replaced
Brakes - all...
I bought my Toledo about 6 months back, about a week before the clocks went back. I never figured out how to change the time then, and i still can't figure it out now!
So, any offers? - How do you set the time on a Toledo?
Thanks in advance,

Evening all - it's been a long while since I've posted but my 06 Leon 2.0TDI is going in tomorrow for a comprehensive (and well overdue) service.
Currently sitting at 66k miles, the last service was at 53K. No longer under warranty so can use specialist not dealer - taking it to Heriothill...
Hey again, did a similar thing on talkaudio and wanted to make it into a poll but didn't really work out (+ wouldnt let me)
Two choices (Phtochops created by a fella on talkaudio a.k.a Pupsi)
In black
Or Silver
Or if you have any other suggestions please put them down.
P.S. I...
Hi, i was driving my leon on a long journey last night and the heater was on boiling hot when on LOW, HIGH or anything inbetween. Anyone got any ideas why this happens or what causes the problem? After i got back in the car after 4 hours all was fine again - WTF?

Alot of people will remember this....
After 18 or so months of selling it I had a text saying I could have it back for a decent price, after popping round to see the old girl the deal was done and it was returned to its place on the drive.
I had my mind set on an mx5 as a track toy but...
Hi

Have now bought a vag com and the first read out is attached. hope someone with experience will guide me through it.
The main concern is the esp light but I would like to make sense of the other faults as well.

Also if some one can tell me where the abs pump...
Afternoon
I've spent the last 4 years doing 100 miles a day .. and had an appropriate diesel for that reason. Now i'm doing 30 miles a day and think its time i went back to a more fun car!
I used to Drive an MR2 Turbo before i had the vectra so i'm well versed in sub 6 second cars. I'd have...
I´ve recently fitted a spec 3+ clutch with G60 fly together with my k03s setup (a bit overkill but might go larger or BT later)
Read on different forums that the clutch need time to bed in???
The reason for asking is cos I wonder if the clutch will get less harsh after some use(abuse) as...
was driving home last night when the ABS decided it needed to come on and piss me off, ended up driving about 5 miles wit the abs making weird noises, and i could feel it was coming on under braking, then this morning its still the same, any ideas what this could be?

Thanks again...
Well ive been the proud owner of a 05 leon fr tdi for a few days now and im already looking at more power options. Having come from various turbod petrol cars (mx5 turbo and a 200sx) the leon feels quite tame which i knew it would. Now bear in mind i know nothing about tuning diesel cars so be...
Well, decided to upgrade from the 1.4 i had, great wee car but just wanted something with more OOMPH!
So..... anyone recognise this?
Had SCN stickers on it but couldnt find a trace on here. :doh:
Pulls like nothing ive ever driven! Its a 54 Cupra with Revo Remap and other various bits...
Im now at a point where i want to upgrade what i have which is the standard k03 turbo. I run QPENG Management, but im struggling to decide what to get turbo wise.
I can get a full k04 setup including turbo, downpipe, injectors and a new map for roughly 400 notes giving me with the QPENG...
