    Newbie to-do's

    Great point made here about the dealer just fitting ‘new’ tyres - ask them specifically what they will fit (was the car on its OEM) tyres when you signed up for it? If the dealer is unsure really press the point and ask that if you contributed would they fit ‘proper’ tyres I.e. Michelin or...

    advice on cambelt for cupra 300 17 plate

    If a genuine Seat dealer doesn’t know if your engine is chain or belt driven then I know I wouldn’t trust them as far as I could throw them! They are clearly only in it for the money so I would research a good local VAG independent and entrustthem with your beastie.

    300 ST Res Delete Pipe

    So my Cupra was a FWD variant and after checking the Progressive Parts website to better answer your question it’s a bit vague 😖😖 It reads that the 300 ST 4Drive would need a second clamp as the OEM pipe is a different diameter - can’t comment on that to confirm but the picture attached might...

    Leon ST Boot Floor Carpet Inlay

    I’m after the boot carpet inlay/sound deadening for an ST that would sit directly on top of the metal boot floor under the false floor board - I think this is “standard” on an Excellence model but would like one for my Cupra to quieten the road noise. Anyone possibly got one that they may want...

    Quiet exhaust advice

    @DamoH put up a great diagram outlining the various exhausts on Cupra’s - Might help with understanding which exhaust set up you have - it helped me 😝

    Quiet exhaust advice

    For what it’s worth MaverickCoop I fitted the VAGSport res delete pipe from Progressive Parts (who are a site sponsor so you’ll get a discount mentioning the forum) and it gives the exhaust a nice raspy sound - much better than before but not really loud or intrusive 👍

    what did you and your mk3 leon do today

    In a break from the persistent 🤬 rain I had a window of opportunity to give the 300 a mid year oil and filter change 😍 Is it just me but how satisfying is it watching the dirty oil drain out to then pour in some lovely clean fully synthetic Longlife III oil 👍 She’s a happy Cupra today 👏👏

    Hi R.Bot - it’s defo from suspension as already resolved noisy door seals but thanks for the advice 👍

    Creaking Cupra

    I’m after a bit of advice & guidance here people - my 2017 300 ST (with 25000 miles) has started creaking from the rear suspension when driving. The strange thing is that when going over speed bumps (slowly of course 🤪) and “general” undulations in the road the suspension is quiet, however when...

    Cupra Sensitive to Road Camber

    Exactly Damo H - I’m struggling to find someone in my area who I can trust to do a 4 wheel check/adjust alignment. Local tyre firms may have the gear but if the operator doesn’t know how to use it then it could actually come back worse than when it went in 😖 Called my local dealer but no...

    Strange Rubber Seal Issue

    100% Mr Pig - IMO there is a bigger issue that the dealership will attempt to mask by claiming a new seal for a water ingress bogus warranty repair! Rowan83 did you raise a case with Seat CC and send them the photo’s? Just out of interest does your tailgate let in any moisture? For me the...

    Strange Rubber Seal Issue

    Hi Rowan83, can’t say for sure what may/could’ve caused this - poor manufacture of the actual seal (unlikely as it is very localised), poor alignment of the tailgate (again unlikely as I’m sure you would’ve noticed issues with tailgate opening/closing or squeaking/creaking of the tailgate whilst...

    Strange Rubber Seal Issue

    Wow - that is really strange Rowan83 as it looks like the boot seal has worn away and the resulting rusty area shown is the internal metal “gripper” that holds the seal to the flange on the bodywork. Have a look at the corresponding area of the tailgate to see if the paint is damaged there. It...

    ECO Mode

    Hi RadioTwo, I’ve got a 2017 Cupra 300 ST (manual gearbox) and I always leave the “drive mode” in “Cupra” (for obvious reasons 😝) - I went out last night and checked what you have asked and on starting the car the mode switch is yellow, the Cupra logo is displayed in the top left corner of the...
