[dozza.13]

Well, that should solve some of the access issues!

Dont think Rash wants to go that far!

 

[rashcupra]

no! do you have any tips on changing it ive never done 1 before! will be tackling it tonight or tomorrow maybe day after!

 

[Ad Lav]

I'll ask Skoda for you mate, see if its alternator out the way etc...

 

[rashcupra]

ive had a propper look today and it is behing the engine next to the brake fluid bottle and is going to be an absoloute b&stard to change but il give it a crack tonight or tomorrow as its just turned up pics up later

 

[dozza.13]

Sounds like its gonna be fun mate, I had a look at mine last night - you can hardly even see it! Looked like a right nightmare to change!

 

[rashcupra]

strut brace off
engine covers off
heat matting off
aircon pipes off

and still be ripping skin off my knuckles will be doing it tomorrow tho after work hopethis cures it!

 

[Ad Lav]

Ooh... fun job!

Got mine done under warranty at SEAT as the plastic guide rod snapped... metal one on now!

 

[rashcupra]

what symptoms did you car have having a faulty master or did it just straight snap and not work? is it common???

 

[Ad Lav]

I'll tell you via pm mate... it is a common fault to snap though...

 

[h17och]

the hardest bit is undoing the clip on it!!

 

[rashcupra]

what the white clip or the clip that hold the pipe on?

 

[h17och]

white clip with too legs

 

[rashcupra]

oh that looked like the easy bit

 

[rashcupra]

the car is actually even lower now people YES IT IS POSSIBLE so so so low now

 

[Ad Lav]

And it looks very cool, shame my sump is scraping the ground... back can come down next though...

 

[rashcupra]
