OK the leon handles pretty well in the dry although a little light on the front with some understeer.
In the rain its completely different. I have to pull away real slow or the traction control kicks in and goes mad to stop the wheels spinning and i get real bad understeer, even small bends...
I dislike a car that understeers so I tried to induce a degree of oversteer with the following mods
I have set up my LCR with the following.
KW matched springs and shocks lowered about 30mm from stock
S3 front strut brace
R32 front ARB
28mm rear ARB set on the stiffest setting

hi all ive got a 8v gti that understeers like a pig. its got new tyres on it and the rest is standard, but for standard surely it shouldn't understeer the amount that it does.
Even in the dry its a pain if i take roundabouts quickly it will still do it, but in the wet its stupid, i have to...
Hi guys,
Hope everyone had a good new year etc :)
Just wondering if anyone has any siggestions on curing the colossal tendency of my MK1 Leon TDi to understeer absolutely everywhere? Backing off in an attempt to get the tail to come round (As in my old 306 ;) ) makes no difference at all...

25mm ARB at the front and 28 at the back?
None at the front ,only at the back for tail happy nature?
Bare in mind I'm allready lowered and with KONI's and upper front strut brace and no spacers , as I wish...
Hi All,
My car understeers sooo badly... just washes out even on dry tarmac... the back end will not budge (I love playing with lift-off oversteer, my cupra refuses to do anything other than understeer).
So... anyone know good toe-in / camber settings to optimise the standard setup...
I like to decrease the understeer of my mk3 cupra. The car is already lowered which made a big difference. I'm now thinking of buying a Neuspeed ARB. What is the best combination? Only 25 mm rear or only 28 mm rear or 25 mm front and 25 mm rear or 25 mm front and 28 mm rear?
What is the...
Just been told (not sure how reliable the source) that the Leon Cupra (not sure if it was an R or not) was in Top Gears top 10 worst cars for understeer. What are peoples thoughts? Do you agree or disagree?
