  1. Starting issues - oily plugs

    So I've been having starting issues recently. Changed my plugs about 8 weeks ago then a short while after the starting issues began. Was suggested coil packs or fuel pump. Changed the coil packs today and same issue, but I noticed oil around the top of plug 3 and 4. So took them all out and...

    Hey guys, having some issues with my car it's an 03 bam Leon cupra r and if I leave it for more than 12 hours it struggles to start. Can take from 5 to 20 attempts to get it started.

  9. Removing climate control unit from centre console?

    Trying to replace a water damaged climate control unit from the centre console but can't seem to get any of the trim off. There appears to be two pieces either side of the unit that should pop off to reveal the screws but I've seriously tried and they won't budge. Close to denting the plastic...
  10. 2 Problems I need help with: Wet footwells, coolant smell.

    No it doesn't rise under load. Just took her out there and no coolant smell, seems to be an intermittent problem... i don't know wtf to look at. Also all the water is on the passenger side, just had the bonnet open there and noticed the pollen filter/cover looks wonky (i've never touched it...
  11. 2 Problems I need help with: Wet footwells, coolant smell.

    I've ordered what I need to fix the door seals, thanks. But the coolant smell - there is no red coolant anywhere that I can see. Another thing to note is if I turn my fans off when the car is idling the temp gauge raises up, have to put the hot air fans back on to bring it back down to normal...

  15. modified car insurance

    I know this is an old post of mine, but back with another cupra r soon! Any recommendations on modified car insurers? I did try chris knott but hilariously they won't cover a 210>280 bhp increase. Don't see why they advertise here as that's very much a typical bhp increase.. oh well...
  16. LCR New battery dying fast

    Hey there, For a little while I've had some issues with my battery dying really quick. A month ago I put a brand new one in as the old one was dying after 3 days. I dropped the car off at the garage for mot before I went offshore and left it with them. They had it for 2.5 weeks and reported...
  17. Rear n/s footwell flooded!

    I know these cars (LCR) have an issue with leaking after a while. Even seen a diy post on it somewhere. But wanted to ask. The rear n/s footwell is like a swimming pool after the recent heavy rain but only that side. Will the water be coming in through that door or can other areas lead to that...
