  1. Fuel pump relay circuit open - Help

    Hi guys, I've got a Mk1 LCR which completely lost all power and wouldn't start a few months ago. I'd then changed the Fuel Pump Relay (409) and it started and has been starting perfectly fine until then. I've got a remap for Stage 2 booked in with Badger5 in a week or so's time and figured...
  2. Swap for GTI edition 30

    Nice! Well if he's up for a swap or even a sale.....I'd be tempted. It sounds like a decent example with not so ridiculous miles! Yup - I've had a few at stage 2 before, and I do miss the dsg gearbox being from london! lol PM me with some details if he's up for discussing it :)
  3. Swap for GTI edition 30

    I think you should keep your Leon BUT only because you've got a new Cupra and I like what you've got in mind with regards to modifying the mk1. Who offered you the swap? I could be tempted as I have had a few mk5's and have loved them.
  4. Help - Cupra R issues

    Hi guys, I've got issues with my Leon Cupra R 225. It struggles to start after being left for a couple of hours - although it does eventually start up. Then once started it feels unusually rough, though it sorts itself out on occasion which is why I'm so confused / annoyed. I have replaced...
  5. Hardwiring a dashcam

    Hi mate, I've managed to hardwire my dash cam in. I purchased a couple of fuse taps and managed to get a live and a switched live feed from the fuse box to power the Blackview Power Magic Pro which in turn powers my dashcam. If you need specific fuses, let me know and I'll get the info/pic...
  6. Which 3" downpipe to buy?

    Hi guys, I'm looking to purchase a downpipe for my LCR. Ideally I want a 3" downpipe to mate up with my Cobra catback. I don't mind going decat, though a sports cat is preferred. Any recommendations / pointers will be welcome! Thanks in advance!
  7. Remap help

    Where do I get a system like this? It'd be good to be able to alternate between decat/cat for when needs must. With your current set up, it looks like you can change it on some ramps which is ideal!
  8. Remap help

    Oh my - That looks perfect - almost identical to what I'd hope for! With regards to the downpipe...Decat or Sportscat? Oh and 3" is the one to go for right? I've got a quote for a Relentless downpipe which seems pretty reasonable considering it's 3" diameter. Also I think you may have missed...
  9. Remap help

    Thanks Sparkie! I may well end up going back to R-tech as I've got another MK5 which I'll be taking up there again soon. I was just curious as to find out whether there was anybody closer to me who specialises in these cars. I take it the fact you ignored AMD I should probably steer clear too...
  10. Remap help

    Hi guys, I'm new to the 1.8t world so excuse my lack of knowledge on the platform. I'm looking to get my LCR mapped at some point this summer and was wondering who I should go to. I've previously had a couple of MK5 GTI's and I've always gone to R-tech for them as they are widely regarded as...
  11. Which other VAG wheels fit?

    Hi guys, I'm looking to get my LCR wheels refurbed. I was looking at purchasing another set of wheels to use while I get them off and sent away. What other oem wheels fit over the LCR brakes? The cheaper the better as I'm probably not going to use them much! Thanks
  12. Servicing query

    Hi guys, I've recently bought a Cupra R. It's just ticked over 90k miles and I was thinking of giving it a full service in the near future. (It's due in about 5k miles so have decided to start researching what bits I will need) For reference it has a Jetex filter with a Badger5 v3 TIP. It...
  13. Glove Box Lock Broken Off

    I've actually got a glovebox for sale! Ready for you to swap it over if you needed. It's a total of 4 screws holding the glovebox in and its a relatively straight swap. Let me know if you need anymore help!

    Cheers bud! All sorted now :)
  15. Hardwiring a dashcam

    Hi guys, I've recently got a Leon Cupra R and have got my Blackvue dashcam which I removed from my previous car. I want to install this and hardwire it so it is permanently on (I already have the blackview box which will cut power once the battery voltage drops below a certain value so I'm not...
  16. washerjet query

    Hi guys, One of my front washer jets is not aiming correctly and is squirting the screen wash onto my roof / the car behind me if travelling quick. Is there anything I can do to fix the aim of the nozzle? Thanks

  18. What brakes LCR?

    Hi guys, I'm looking to do a brake change all round on my Cupra R in the not too distant future. I'm planning on running DS2500 pads up front but am struggling with which discs to pair with them. For the rears I'm thinking the stock set up should be more then fine for my use - though I'm...

    I've got one now.....Picked it up on Sunday! Happy with it - 89k Miles - FULL service history etc etc. Platinum Grey - I really like it already! :)
  20. How much should I pay for a Mk1 Cupra R?

    Thanks for taking your time to post this - I've now got one! The last owner (A member on here) had it for 7 years and its done 89k miles with a full extensive history. I must stress though that after having 2 MK5 GTI's - they do feel a little nicer to drive on the road - I think they're...
