Okay thank you. I will phone around and see if the newer part is available that’s probably why I’ve not been having any luck. Do you know if anyone makes a cast alternative? I’ve had a look but can’t see any
My 2004 LCR has the coolant flange part No.06a121133ad coming out the cylinder head on the right hand side where the coolant temp sensor is. This part is no longer available and it comes out the head at 90 degrees. However most others online seem to come out the head and go back towards the rear...
Hi folks,
The input shaft seal on my gearbox is leaking causing the clutch to slip. Can this seal be changed from the outside or does it require the box to be split? And is it worth even fixing or is it better to just buy a new box?
Thanks in advance
A local mechanic who seems trustworthy. The problem is I bought the parts and he fitted them for me. Is it possible the pressure plate doesn’t have sufficient clamping force or is from another car with the same gearbox but not rated for the cupra r torque?
No I’m confident the map isn’t the problem it was done by a reputable company on a rolling road and I have the graph to show the numbers. In addition to this the previous standard clutch held up fine with it for a considerable length of time.
Around 4 months ago I put a brand new LUK clutch, flywheel and slave cylinder in my cupra r as the previous one was on 90 odd thousand miles and slipping under full load in 4th,5th and 6th. Now 2k miles later the new clutch is slipping again. The car doesn’t get a hard time and is driven...
Hi folks,
My clutch has started to slip in higher gears so looking at replacements. Wondering if the clutch out of a pd with the 02m gearbox will directly fit into my mk1 cupra r. The hope is this will give a better torque rating and not break the bank. I might be completely wrong on this so...
Looking for some help regarding the differances if any between the cupra and cupra R fuel pump. My fuel pump has packed in and there is a breaker close to me with a cupra fuel pump which he says is the same as the fuel pump in my cupra r. I have had a search about but can't see this issue being...
Installed a boost gauge today on an LCR and after turning it on the airbag light was on. Not sure what could have caused this.Was thinking it could have been the fact i removed the glovebox and disconnected all the wires and had the car running during this time as the passenger airbag switch is...
Cheers for the replys guys. I will phone my insurance company tommorow and see what they have to say about it. Might be worth looking into a proper induction kit also.
I am thinking of fitting a forge 008 recirc valve to my 2004 LCR. However i was wondering if anyone had any idea how much this will put my insurance premium up by and if it is considered to add power/performance?
Many thanks
Hi guys i am new to the forum and looking for some advice.
I am currently looking at an 04 plate leon cupra r with around 70k on it. Looks clean in general however the front cross member is fairly rusty and so is the rear axle. Wondering if anyone has had any issues similar or if i should stay...
