  1. Advice on buying a Cupra with engine replacement

    I guess what I am asking is whether (from people's knowledge/experience) I should view the fact it has had an engine replacement as a sign of future/continuous problems or that things should be ok!

  3. Advice on buying a Cupra with engine replacement

    Hello all So after selling my mk4 Tdi FR to scratch my V8 itch I am looking at returning to Seat and buying a cupra Have done a fair amount of reading on here and have read about its issues and praises alike I am wary but still keen. I have found an 11 plate, sub 20k mile example in a...

  5. Before/After Remap MPG

    And the other 10%?:D Admittedly i dont do that much motorway stuff or vent the tank but I have given up trying to get near those sort of figures- no matter how i drive i just cant do it!
  6. Before/After Remap MPG

    When you say 'to a tank' how many litres is this?
  7. Before/After Remap MPG

    Its about what i do. I get 330ish in winter and 380ish in summer, mostly from round town and commuting (13 miles each way), sometimes taking it easy, sometimes not. Most i ever got was about 420 going to Devon and back. 400 or more- I just dont know how you do it!
  8. Fuel Consumption

    Are the figures people are quoting what the computer says or actually worked out by dividing miles done by gallons used for full tank to empty?
  9. Sodding headlight washers!!!

    I have had the car from new and mine never worked- fixed the problem by getting an FMIC fitted so they had to be removed to make way for the piping :D Never really saw the point of them anyway- all they did was spray the lights and make inside the car smell of washer liquid, not actually clean...

  13. Problem fitting spacers FR TDI

    If i buy some from you and they dont fit can i return them?
  14. Another couple of small mods I'd like to do ....

    My car came with one of these and i love it! The sensor sits behind the hatch/grill thing at the front of the map light console (not a great description!)- i will try and get pics if you want? Power wise i think it just jacks into the power for the map light, again, i can check this if it helps...
  15. Problem fitting spacers FR TDI

    It is not the fitting of them that is the problem, it is the annoyance of having bought them and not being able to use them if they dont fit (for whatever reason) No, i havent actually got any- i didnt buy them from the garage when they said they didnt fit. I rang the garage up again and...
  16. Problem fitting spacers FR TDI

    Hmmmmm. It did seem a bit strange- especially seeing as i had never heard of this problem before. I could risk the cost of a pair of spacers and put them on myself....
  17. Problem fitting spacers FR TDI

    Lol, that is the obvious answer, but i am trusting that the garage ordered in the right ones- i was buying them from them (but obviously didnt) so they had no reason not to. They said they tried both forge and H&R (which they had put on other Ibizas) but neither fit because the hub was very...
  18. Problem fitting spacers FR TDI

    Nope, completely standard I was told it was the diameter that was the problem i.e. the hole in the spcers was too small to fit over the hub
  19. Problem fitting spacers FR TDI

    Has anyone had any problems fitting spacers on a post 56 plate TDI FR? When my car was in the garage i asked them to put a set of 10mm on the rear but they said the hub was slightly too large (1-2mm) for them to fit. They tried both Forge and H&R but neither would go on:shrug:
  20. ICE question

    www.talkaudio.co.uk is good for all things ICE. The 40amp 'rating' of your amp is the theoretical maximum current draw that the amp can pull but it wont get to this when just playing music. I have a system that can theoretically pull over 200amps and the battery is the standard 90...
