    Most likely source of the squeaks from the front suspension ?

    Thanks for the reply Martin. It's not door seals, definitely front suspension. I greased the new top mounts before they went back in. I'll take another look tomorrow

    Creaking, Metal on Metal Suspension Noise while Turning Steering

    I've got a 2014 Leon FR 184. I've owned it for a year and over the last 6 months I've had some knocks and creaks from the front suspension. Did a few checks and decided to replace the front lower arms with the Super Pro bushes ones from Awesome which stopped the knocking. The creaking while...

    Most likely source of the squeaks from the front suspension ?

    So, I've replaced the lower arms with the ones from Awesome GTI and the Super Pro bushes. This sorted the knock out. I still had the creaking when turning the steering wheel so I did the top mounts and put ECS ones in with new bearings. I still have the creaking when turning! It's almost like...

    Most likely source of the squeaks from the front suspension ?

    Morning all. My 2014 FR 184 has started getting really bad now. Are the best options just to poly bush it all? I think mine is top mounts and dry lower arms but I could be wrong. It's getting worse though so I need to do something.

    Reverse Gear Lost

    Update: Couldn't get reverse from directly on top of the box. Stripped the box down and could easily move the forks into reverse. The reverse and 5th/6th gear forks are slightly damaged so have put it down to the selector shaft. Ordered one from TPS who tell me that its got to come in...

    a little help needed with my friends 2000 tt 225

    Sounds like coil packs to me. You may want to try disconnecting the MAF and going for a spin and seeing if it makes a difference. If it does then a new MAF is required.

    vagcom to determine bhp

    You can use vagcom VCDS to check Torque in Nm's then convert to BHP, this only works with petrol's though. You need to log block 120. Start in 3rd gear, low down the revs all the way to redline. You may want to log block 115. This is requested and actual boost via the MAP sensor. If you...

    Chip or map!?

    Have you had a look on DNA Tunings website? They're based down in Alcester so not far from you. Awesome software, one of the best imo. I have had REVO, Custom Code and APR (no longer in the UK) but have found that nothing comes close to DNA

    Chip or map!?

    Remap :D Boxes are ok but with the new changes coming into force regarding MOT's and 'illegal chipping', you will have to either hide the box behind something or remove it when your car is due its MOT. There a quite a few reputable tuning companies out there now and you should pick wisely...
