    Winter Tyres

    I have purchased an Ateca and have a set of winter tyres which came off my Leon. Were only on for a couple of months and done under 1000 miles. They are 225/40R18 and came off the 18inch Performance wheels. £65 each when bought but would take £100 for all 4. Am in the North West of England...

    Leon to Ateca

    I would like to have the 4 drive but its out of my price range. Am interested whether it feels well made ( as you have said) and rides well. My Leon is great but must say that it's a harsh ride. I realise that the FR has sports suspension but I am reading that the Ateca is also on the firm...

    Front Bumper/Bonnet Protection

    A bit late I know, but how did you get on with the Chipex? Mine still looks ok and have done a few more.

    Leon to Ateca

    Had a 1.4tsi act Leon for over 2 years but now thinking of changing for an Ateca, need the boot space! Would want the 1.5 tsi as I do low mileage and love the economy/power of my current engine. Anybody done the same and have any pro's / con's of the Ateca vs the Leon|?

    Noise after start - FR 150

    Been doing it for a while but only noticed it because I hadn't got the radio switched on when i started it. May have always done it. Reason I'm curious about it is because it sounds metallic to me and only does it cold. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

    Noise after start - FR 150

    Wans't sure how to describe the noise but whirling's about right :) Does yours only do it cold as well? Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

    Noise after start - FR 150

    It's the noise after it's started, goes on for about a second. Does the Cupra and FR 125 do it when they are warm? Mine is silent when warm started. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

    Noise after start - FR 150

    I have had a noise for a while which sounds to me like the starter motor over running. It only happens when the car has been stood for a few hours. Took it to the dealer and surprisingly they couldn't make it do it, even though it does it every time it has been stood for a while. They said...

    Front Bumper/Bonnet Protection

    No sanding to do and everything you need is in the kit. Really easy to use and did all paint chips in an hour. You just put your reg in the website and they match the paint, mine was a great match. Stood next to the car you cant see anything but on on your hands and knees you can see some but...

    Front Bumper/Bonnet Protection

    Front end if my 2 year old FR was looking tatty with chips etc. Used claybar (£25) to remove flies and tar etc. Then used Chipex kit (£40) which was really easy. When paint cured I finished off with polish and wax. Really pleased with the results, you have to look really close to see the...

    Chipex Pait Repair

    Used it for the first time the other day. Thought I would try it as I have never been able to get fantastic results with brushes and OEM paint and had quite a few down the drivers side thanks to a Gritter :( Quite pleased with the results, managed to hide everything from big stone chips to...

    Windows opened by themselves

    Happened to me last week, came out of work after a nightshift and the windows were down. It was -6 C and had to scrape the inside of the windscreen :( Looking on google, its a known issue on VAG cars when its either humid or very cold.

    High Beam Assist speed limit?

    The main beam symbol which appears in the central display (between rev counter and speedo) will have an 'a' in the centre if it's set to auto. You can toggle between auto and normal with the stalk Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

    what did you and your mk3 leon do today

    I am also impressed with it. Put on a coat of autoglym HD Wax every 4 months and top up with aqua-wax every 3 to 4 weeks. Frequently get comments on how well it shines. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

    2017 seat leon fr 150 suspension

    Had a Focus Zetec 115tdi for 3 years and now had Leon FR 150tsi for 12 months. The ride on the FR is definitely firmer than the focus but to be expected as it is a sports suspension. You can feel the difference on poor surfaces(I am on 18 inch wheels and they say 17inch is slightly better) but...
