I was a little shocked to spend £40 on a drying towel but it's so worth it. I personally favour pre wash over snow foam. I spend 2 hours washing the car and then the next day it needs a clean again.

Back when I got my red FR it had one key as they couldn't find the other. Took so much nagging for them to replace it and recode it. Fairly costly exercise for them I think.

Mine has worked perfectly since day one. Both on Carplay or Android auto. Only downside is having a cable permanently plugged in.

I've put mine under the false floor (what a neat idea)

Makes perfect sense, I'll give it a go. I haven't put the seats down much in it but did a few tip runs on the weekend so it got used a bit.

So my ST 290 has started rattling/squeaking. I think it's coming from the back seat where it latches into the frame. I'm sure people here have mentioned it, how did you fix it?

My friendly neighbour across the road has just put in two HD cameras overlooking his place and ours. This makes me extremely happy as my car is in perfect line of sight with one of the camera's.

There's a bright blue RS3 Quattro a few doors down, I'm hoping they'd prefer that. We all park on the street. I hope that makes it harder for thieves to work out which car belongs to which people.

The soundaktor made me feel physically ill, it was so weird. Bloody hard to unplug as I have big hands but I managed it.

I'D LOVE TO KNOW HOW TO TURN THE VOLUME DOWN ON WAZE. It's really frustrating that the volume knob does nothing when waze speaks.

I'm sorry you had to be in Hull for work, I've been three times from Brum to work up there for the day.

Thanks, it doesn't surprise me that it would be quite expensive. I do like the DRL indicators though. Not sure what Seat are doing but I'm seeing so many FR's around these days.

Was that at Bristol St motors?

I have a MY16 Cupra 290 and I really like the facelifted colour coded DRL's as indicators. Is a direct swap possible in everyone's opinion?

Overly Enthusiastic dock workers?

If I'm in a hurry, I'll clean the wheels with wheel cleaner, rinse the whole car down wit water. Apply prewash to lower half of car, wait a few minutes and rinse the whole thing down.

detailingworld has an excellent Noob section I used, I got advice on which products to use from the dude who Detailed my car after I bought it. Prepare to spend around £150-£200 on products alone, but you can buy things as needed of course. Wheel woolies are super handy, as is a deep plush...

Even here in Birmingham, I've only seen 3-4 Cupra's since I got mine in March. When I had my FR ( back in 2015) I'd see 1-2 a week, now I see at least 10 every day on my commute to/fro work)

Usually only at higher revs, someone on here reckoned it was 4200 RPM. I don't hear it often, usually too busy staring at the road to pay attention
