what did you and your mk3 leon do today

[Deano j1971]

Exactly, it’s only 4 years old so I don’t think there’s any need to change it anyway! We said when we got it we would keep it till it’s done 200k. But no no needs a Audi now for some random reason! The A3 is lower power, less spec but more money. Work that one out

That’s the thing with Audi...base car x amount of pounds then you have to spend a fortune on the extras. I bet you could of got a top of the range 2018/19 fr/ Cupra.with lots of power for the same price as the Audi.

Likely his workmates who have paid over the odds for their 'premium' brand German car
are telling him that an Audi will be on another level to a not-good-enough SEAT.

Mostly wrong of course, unless things like dashboard design,thicker carpets and 'chrome'
accents mean the world to you, but brand image is a strong pull for many punters, which
is why VAG and others constantly spend a small fortune and a lot of effort in cultivating it.

Finished putting my Audi RS3 Brake ducts on the car today and gave the suspension and wheels a bit of a clean.

Was it a straight fit? @paddy6789 is getting them and I'm considering it.

Yes it's easy to do, just putting together a Guide on how to do it.

New winter boots fitted. Got some 225 40 18 Avon WV7's from Camskill. £322.60 with Shipping. £40 for local fitting. So far so good. Can't wait for a bit of snow now!!

Getting this nasty bleep replaced. Not a good way to start a 5.5 hour journey at 5am! :-/

I have not had this personally but check with your insurance company.
Last time I saw this the windscreen replacement is covered and does not impact your NCB.
However re calibrating the sensors (IF ITS NEEDED) in your windscreen is not covered and does impact your NCB.

Can I ask where you get the brake ducts from and ate they a direct fit on the Sub 8 with bigger brakes ?

 

[Deleted member 103408]

I got them from https://www.akstuning.co.uk/genuine-oem-parts/456-genuine-rs3-8v-brake-ducts.html

The brake size i think is immaterial its about the frame they sit on, my brakes are 380 x 32mm

I’ve read on the VW forums that they foul the Caliper on cars with smaller callipers, but they can be trimmed.

 

[Deleted member 103408]

That is odd as on my car there is a reasonable gap between the caliper and the plastic ducts but maybe the smaller ones are fatter.

Do the R and Cupra share same brake setup

Golf R? I believe so, as do the GTi Performance Pack. Maybe it’s the normal GTi with the smaller brakes.

It was loud whatever it was! No other vehicles around at that time either so I’m really not sure.

Yep would just be an excess to pay and I’d keep my no claims, but I’d still have to declare it as a claim for the next 5 years.

Today I picked my new cupra up after waiting since April and somehow managed to keep my licence on the way home.

I think

 

[L333dgy]

New member.....Today I fit a gloss black cupra surround to my fr. Much better!
