Hi, Does anyone know what the top speed is on a SEAT 2.0 S as i managed to get 120mph at 5,100 revs but it seemed to just be stuck there. It seemed it was limited in some way. Any tips on how to take it into the 130s? Matt

What do these look like? I just ordered some from ECP and they look like rubber doughnuts. 7.50plus vat. Sound about right? Any help would be good. Cheers.

Just had a look at my engine bay looking for some loose pipes and observed a small pool of oil on top of the filter housing this is the second time i have noticed this. I have checked all bolts in the area of the housing and had a good look but no sign of where it's coming from any ideas????

In the Top Gear Awards magazine, that came out yesterday. They have a good article where they have compared the new RACE:WTCC Computer game, in a real world sense. They used Brands Hatch circuit, with the BTCC Leon and JP, and compared its times and performance on the real track against the...

Maybe this will help to ressolve the issues about how quick the LCR is in comparison to other cars. Standard cars obviously, but should give a fair idea. apologies if this has already been posted. 1. 1:17.6 – Koenigsegg CCX (w/TG wing) 2. 1:18.4 – Pagani Zonda F 3. 1:18.9 –...

The two Chevrolet Lacetti's of Nicola Larini and Alain Menu, have set the fastest times in a special testing session today at the Macau circuit ahead of the final rounds of the WTCC, that take place this weekend. SEAT's Rickard Rydell finished 3rd fastest in his Leon, followed by reigning...

As there a few of us out there now thought it would be useful to have a thread with a list of what's good and bad about the new Leon. I've had a 2.0l FSi and now own a 2.0TDi so I'll start :- Good:- 1. Styling - You love it or hate it. I love it especially details such as the rear door...

Be very very careful when trying to put back on the piece you have to chisel off.... I followed the Elsawin guide using the steering nut, and ended up cross threading the steering column thread.....with only about 3 lines of thread left could only find a plumbing nut that would hold the...

There is a special end of season Tin Top Tuesday radio show on this evening presented by the BTCC commentator Alan Hyde. TTT was a regular tuesday night touring car fan institution until it was sadly taken off the air earlier this year, but they have pulled strings to present a special one...

I thought this might make an interesting thread, so here goes... What are you top 5 favourite mods bought for your Leon so far? Be it interior, styling, performance or anything else regardless of size and cost, what 5 items are you most pleased you bought? :) Rob

Anyone done it? Im looking at getting a GPS camera locator and have thought it would be far nicer not to have the ash tray open and a big wire running up the front of the dash. I was thinking about getting onto the back of the cig.lighter and running a wire up the back and through the top dash vent?

Fuse box on top of battery + Diagnosis light! Ive done a search and found out how to fix the fault. Now I just need some advice on what the middle of the three fuses does? The problem started tonight were the fuse melts and the fans stop work. So I swap the buggered fuse which controls the fans...

There's a short review of the petrol version of the new Leon FR on the Top Gear website. They seem to get the idea of the car a bit more than some other reviewers and give it a very favourable report: http://www.topgear.com/drives/E1/B1/roadtests/16/01.html

Hi peeps. I know its been covered before, but has anybody found a replacement aftermarket hose for the top of the turbo? I blew mine off 5 times yesterday, took it off, dryed it, new clips, hitorque clips, and it still blew it off again. I dont want to boost over 15psi now cos it just...
