Ive had my FR lowered on eibach sportlines and want to space the rear wheels about a bit as they look lost now, was just wondering what most people go for? Can get a set of 16mm spacers (8mm each side) what length bolts would you need? Cheers, Josh

Hi peps, help required again!! After failing to find my knocking noise (thought it was from the tyres, see previous thread) I put the car down the local VW/Audi independant garage. Wheel bearing was buggered so this was replaced to the tune of £230 all in! (parts totaling £120?) Picked...

Had my Leon FR cleaned at the local petrol station last week. Everything was good except for the caps to the wheel bolts. The effect of either the jet washer or whatever cleaning stuff they use has destroyed the silver colour and taken it mostly back to black plastic. I'm guessing these are...

This bl***y car! One things after another! Anyway, long story short, I bumped a kerb rather hard before xmas in the ice. Bent wishbone...replaced and sorted. Still a bit of a loud noise above 80mph, when I hear it it makes you definitly want to slow down, bearings and balancing ok. So today...

Hi, can someone tell me if the front wheel bearings on the Leon Cupra TDI's are sealed units or not. Just in a dispute with a warranty company and need to know if they are sealed units because these should last up to 85k. What is the average life of wheel bearings also.

Hi, I am new to this forum, and would like some advice regarding my new Cupra R. I have recently bought a 2005 Leon 225. I have noticed that the steering wheel does not have the red stripe top centre. I thought all 225's came with the red stripe on the wheel, can anyone advise...

All in the title! Cheers lads!

On there way out, Im finding it abit difficult at minute as i have grooved brake discs, so i get the whirring noise under braking, with the pads hitting the grooves on the disc. My gearbox makes noises too. I know what a knackerd one sounds like as a friend with his Lupo gti, was that bad...
