Got me thinking, I've bought the same kit from dealer.. worked out the same price from main dealer but less postage.


Was thinking about the stud kit??

I'd edit if I knew how, could get the stuff myself if I knew size n grade of material

Happy after the drive home, need to update the sat nav, is it possible to get full postcode on the 315?, but the Bluetooth music streaming works well, although I couldn’t hear much over the fuel being guzzled down.

Um what you mean full postcode? I've got the 315 and I can type in 6 character postcodes. What's yours do? What mpg you get? Lol.

Can’t even find the postcode option on mine, will have a better look Sunday, managed 28 mpg on 2hr drive but traffic very slow, 15 min drive to work at 4am and 20mpg, only put foot down twice, it literally doesn’t stop pulling, Love it. Need to get the warranty period over and then map it though as the first one I test drove was mapped and definitely noticeably quicker out of the bends.

Looking at mapping options, Celtic Tuning is coming up as a decent option for me, closest to me and price wise £200 cheaper than a Revo map. Had a reasonable look and reviews sway towards the positive.

Any horror stories I didn’t find about this company?

The other possible option is bluefin, although I can’t find my model on the Superchips website, but demon tweeks supposedly stocks it at £399 which is odd.

Hi mate. Nice car.

Changing hpfp cam follower is a pretty easy job, there are quite a few guides and videos available showing you how to do it. I did mine as soon as I got my 2010 Cupra at 65k, it was starting to wear but not too bad.

Can I ask if you have the spoiler fitted as I am thinking of wrapping my roof as mine is kiwi green and there is quite a bit of stone chip damage to the leading edge of the roof. Is the spoiler wrapped too or just the roof? Don't want it to look daft if I only wrap the roof if you see what I mean!

Cheers!

Think you can see in this pic,

Black roof, white spoiler but rear 1/3rd is black so breaks it up, would look odd if black straight over I think.

Really odd issue when driving quickly, the revs seem to rise on the gear change ever so slightly, seems ok under normal driving.

Any ideas on what this could be, not really heard of it before.

I've heard this a few times on mine... Almost like you're in neutral and slightly revving?

Yep that’s it, thought it was me, it’s odd and makes you feel like your not letting off the pedal properly.

I get that as well... @Legojon may be able to explain it as he's smart and all that..

Err, what? I don't have this... I was about to say you checked the pcv valve?

How do i check this? I didn’t notice it when test driving, but worried now.

So when you let off the accelerator the revs are slow to come down? PCV is nothing serious. If it is that.

Or clutch pressure switch.

 

[Silverfoxxxx]

The revs seem to actually increase ever so slightly before they drop, it’s as if you press the clutch whilst you haven’t quite lifted your right foot, it’s only for a fraction and then the revs drop as you’d expect whilst changing.

Hmm, so if eg the rev counter says 4000. You dip the clutch, does it stick at 4000 longer than you expected? Or is it like blipping the accelerator and it goes up to say 4200 revs?

 

[Silverfoxxxx]

Raises slightly, but only noticed it when gunning it at higher revs.

Mine stays at the revs when I pressed the clutch, only does it like once a week possibly for but unlike @Silverfoxxxx mines at low speed nearer start up.
