there must be some correlation between vehicle power output and longevity of the bearing

okay fair enough, but what causes them to fail at 10,000 miles use then, the whole lot was brand new when it was apart

so when someone runs one of these engines and wants to run big power, lets say 400bhp+ maybe even 500.... what options does he have with regards to clutch slave cylinders? because you can spend £1600 on a dual plate clutch from Helix/AKS Tuning.... but i cannot see anywhere an uprated clutch...

hi yes i got the info from a video tutorial on how to fit new front suspension dampers and strut tops etc on an audi a3/vw golf/seat leon/skoda from http://kyb-europe.com/ 9.43 mins video showing how to do, but more importantly to me also shows torque specs and other useful little bits of info

just undone the passenger side by hand with a 5ft bar, one hell of a almighty crack and bang then it came loose im guessing its because these bolts that are fitted now have the small splines/ridges on the back of the face and should only be done to 70nm then 90 degree final turn where as the...

okay thanks guys is it definitely anti clockwise as normal to undo? ive tried my makita cordless impact wrench, the new 2017 dw1002 rated upto 1000nm

anyone else had similar experiences with seriously seriously tight 12 point front driveshaft bolts? over the course of a couple of days now, using a 12 point deep impact socket, and wd40, then wd40 'specialist release penetrant' spray overnight, then american 'pb blaster' spay overnight ive...

White MK2 Cupra R - 6.18pm Leaving Horwich at the blackrod traffic lights crossroad, heading towards Westhoughton, then think it got on the M61 motorway 3 mins later, by the Reebok football stadium, just outside Bolton, heading either north towards chorley/preston or south towards manchester...

problem solved with brand new rear hubs/bearings both sides, £20.60 each side delivered, so £42 quid and zero labour costs, done both meself on driveway this morning

i have the 3 ABS lights on my dash, the main ABS light and the TPMS light and traction control light. reading the errors codes it said rear right sensor faulty, so I have replaced both side rear ABS/speed sensors now the lights are still coming on and off, seems a little random but are on more...

zero responses? but sorted anyway.

hi, a couple of times now my ignition barrel seems to lock over and jam, by that I mean it does not accept the key into it Ive sprayed a small amount of WD40 in, thinking that may help free up any sticky parts, but there does seem to be a small metal plate coming over from left to right...

nobody leaves a 2.0 tfsi standard for very long at best in standard form 32-35mpg, older mk1 leon 1.8T cupra was 35mpg in grandad mode

also what about these: https://www.akstuning.co.uk/brake-kits/391-rear-356x22mm-disc-upgrade-kit-for-s3rs3-golf-r-di0019.html#/di0019_rear_pad_options-no_pads_required/di0019_rear_brake_line_options-_none_/di0019-356x22mm_plain_1_piece_pagid_or_jurid_branded_discs

ah right i see, online catalogues say 310mm vented for those cars (rears) are they just a straight bolt on fitment, audi pcd the same etc?

obviously larger diameter would have a performance effect automatically, more so with some proper high end pads

yes fronts are dealt with rear brakes look crap, like little CDs compared to front 15" rotors

set to overfuel for safety as a rough guess, better than running lean went from a full tank to a quarter tank in 150 miles, and costs £60 to fill the old girl up, so guessing £40 down the swanny same as going out to a pub, or a meal out, or some people go down the bookies, I prefer a '4 wheel...
