  1. Would you prefer your Leon to be RWD?

    I have to disagree with the awd being too heavy and understeering when pushed hard. I've got KW V1 coilovers, F1 Super sport tyres, all new arms, mounts etc on my A4 B5 Quattro and it's just gripping the road no matter what I throw at it I'm taking 60mph corners at 80mph and if any axle looses...
  2. Would you prefer your Leon to be RWD?

    I'd love it but I don't think the weight distribution is good for a rwd being 60/40 or around that.
  3. Cupra R Engine Removal

    Understood, will remove it and break the hard line as I won't be selling that anyway. I'm pretty sure everything is disconnected, the ground cable aswell. So now just lower the car onto a pallet and undo the two bolts on each engine mount, raise the car and secure the engine onto the pallet...

  5. Cupra R Engine Removal

    Looking at the engine from all sides there doesn't seem to be any connection to anything on the shell anymore. One thing I'm unsure of is the air conditioning hose, I'm pretty certain it needs to come off from the pump as the hose doesn't come with the engine does it?

    So I've got the power steering lines from the rack off, ECU out, fuel lines off, now trying to get the loom out but can't remove the second lambda sensor plug? If I pull it's like it's holding something down there but I've undone all the clips, tried moving the other harness out of the way and I...

  12. Cupra R Engine Removal

    It will ve collected by a delivery company that will load the pallet onto the van, the engine wiring is untouched for now but I am selling it with the engine so where should I remove it then? And one more question, would it be ok to lower the engine onto the pallet without anything else on the...
  13. Cupra R Engine Removal

    Thanks mate, it's in a garage and it's going to be a real challenge to make a brace or something above it, would it not be possible to lower the front end onto a pallet so the engine is sitting on the pallet and then once all connections and mounts have been removed just raise the car up? Also...

  20. Will oem bolts be good on 5mm spacers?

    A 5mm spacer will not have the edge or w.e it should be called the hub tip so you will have to secure the wheels only on bolts, which could cause vibrations at higher speeds plus 5mm wont make a noticeable difference. If you want to fit spacers id go atleast 10mm on front but you can go up to...
