    Cruise Control - I GIVE UP!

    It was when I did it, well not a headache, just time consuming, for the price others charge now to do it for you its not worth doing yourself IMHO!

    Overboost - N75 problem?

    That's an interesting suggestion, I always ran it on super but due to petrol costs wifey runs normal. That run was on a fresh tank of Total normal unleaded, will make sure the next tank is super and see if the problem goes away......

    Overboost - N75 problem?

    Been out for a run and the results are below. It happens in 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th. (no so noticable in 6th). Requested boost is never over about 2030, but the spikes go up to 2200+. Looks like the N75 isn't running at full duty either? In the traces below the most prominent example of...

    guide to changing thermostat

    Just to add to this as I did it today, once you have the right tools its easy! IMHO the 3/8" Universal Joint is essential to do this yourself, costs about a fiver in Halfords. And the extension bars are needed almost as much. Just to aid anyone else looking to do this.

    Cruise Control

    I fitted mine myself - fairly straightforward but time consuming. For the price places charge now to fit IMHO its a no brainer to get them to do it!

    Broken Horn

    My horn didn't work, I took the light out to get to it and test the horn itself, rigged up some wires to the terminals direct to the battery and got deafened! Turned out to be the fuse - if only I'd looked at that first would have saved me a load of hassle lol!! Wifes cupra horn went too...

    How scary is the LC in the wet!

    I do think the standard 16s aren't brilliant in the wet, but you just get used to it and decent tyres make a big difference. However, using the same rubber (FK452) my Focus ST's 18s had shed loads more grip in the wet than my LC's 16s. (but then they were 225 18 rather than 205 16)
