Hi guys, I did have a Leon CR but as you guys are used to FWD I am after tyre advice for my VW T5 van!. Did my first 1/4 mile runs yesterday at Pod and the van doesn't hook like our old S3 did. Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymetric 3's don't really grip until 3rd. So basically what tyres have worked for...

Thanks mate

I got a faulty one for my S3 from Audi a couple of years ago

The LCR is the daily driver for the mrs and the Westfield was the toy, it is road legal but it mainly got used on track days, it had 230hp, weighed 500kg, slicks and a Quaife pro gearbox makes a very quick track car

Or for around £10000 you can get a car like this that does 0-60 in around 3.5 sec and not much will stay with it in the corners:D

Hi, I had a Skoda rear wiper on our Cupra R and someone has taken the plastic cover that goes over the nut, can anyone remember the part number for this? as I can't but I know I gave two part numbers to Skoda, one for the arm and one for this cover. cheers Martin

Spoke to Kings Seat Portsmouth today about my problem, they didn't seem that bothered, then I spoke to VOSA and they sre now going to get Seat to do an investigation into it.

[/IMG] You will have to take all the lower engine shields off to see it, there is two pipes from the master cylinder, it is the one at the front that travels near the metal turbo oil pipe, if you look at the picture the pipe has been taken off but you can see the oil pipe right under it

Just found out a guy in my Westfield car club that had the same pipe go on his leon cupra a couple of years ago, it went in the same place, caused by the other metal pipe rubbing it through, Seat said to him they have never seen this before but its two cars now, the brake pipe is aluminum so if...

If you PM me your email I can send you a picture to post as I don't know how

You are not reading the tread, it was the steel pipe at the master cylinder that got the hole rubbed in it, see how serious it is mate!!

Me and car are ok, it happened about a mile from my house

Car and me are ok, the pipe burst about a mile from my house, I made it home slowly and the brake fluid light cam on when I pulled up on my drive, it will be worth others checking there pipes when they have the sump gaurd of next, it must have been rubbing for a while as the brake pipe is quite...

[/IMG]Hi, thought I would share this with all you other leon owners this may be applicable to, I had total brake failure today in our 03 leon CR, when I got the car home and had a look I found the turbo oil pipe had rubbed a hole in one of the brake master cylinder pipes next to it. Hope I am...

I tried running with a blancked off DV, same problem, I have the VAG 210/225 engine manual, the turbo control section and drawings is about 40 pages on its own, I have now run with a blanked off DV, and tried a manual boost controller instead of the N75 with no luck, now I have another problem...

I have tried two other N75's now, one from a standard TT and a new one from the dealer, ALSO IF I TAKE THE N75 OUT AND PUT IN A MANUAL BOOST CONTROL VALVE I GET THE SAME BOOST PROBLEM, so in my opinion the fault is somthing else on my car

Yes the Leon CR has a N249 as well, I tried bypassing this and also bypassed the N75 with a manual boost controller and still had the boost surge at low rpm at full load.

I ran 262HP at JKM, 264HP at Power Engineering (same settings), and 269.8HP at Power Engineering with more Timing and 100 octane fuel, so yes I have added .2 HP to my signature to round it up to 270HP, now I have my boost problem it is down to 240 somethink

If you blank of the valve and the problem is still there you know it is not the DV or N249(electronic air recirculation valve) at fault, I am reading my audi service department manual at the moment, the section for turbo boost and vacume systems is 50 pages long, I will keep you posted

I thought you were working tonight mate?, when I get time I am going to blank off the DV and see if the problem is still there
