  7. wills&ellis seat dealer in york

    Thats good to hear they are still going with seat, am always happy to take my car to them when it needs something doing, and i've always trusted what they've said when somethings been wrong with it. The service manager is always up for a good chat whenever i've been kept waiting too.
  8. wills&ellis seat dealer in york

    They have apparently stopped being a Seat dealer now and the seat dealership has moved to Martin Beever Skoda at clifton moor. Think they are becoming a VAG specialist garage now.
  9. Cupra Diesel?

    I went from a fr 150 to a 225 lcr this year and to be fair, in normal driving there is nothing between them, they both feel nicely planted (with the lcr having a bit heavier steering) and the lcr actually seems to have a more comfortable ride. The only real difference is the mpg :cry: and when...
  10. Cupra R 3rd whinning

    Exactly the same thing happens with mine. Took it to a gear box specialist and he's told me not to worry about it as it was no where near bad enough to strip the box as he didn't think he would find anything. He told me to just keep an eye on it and if it starts to get worse to bring it back and...
  11. clicking noise

    My gf has a Vectra :doh: (to fit the dog in) and i don't think she ever checked the oil before i met her, when i checked it for her it wasn't even on he dipstick. Went to get her some oil and it took nearly 4l of the stuff. It still runs absolutely fine :confused:
  12. Are there any Common gearbox issues with leon mk1 cupra?

    Mines doing that at the moment, do you mind me asking how much it was to get sorted and who did it? cheers :)
  13. TDi150 vs 225R Buying advice

    Have owned both of them. Was doing 20k a year so needed a derv. It was a brilliant car for what i needed, but always in the back of my mind was i should have got a LCR. I toyed with the idea of remapping my FR but i din't have the extra 1k lying about if the clutch went with the map. Have...
  14. Wills and Ellis of York! Not good!

    Just had the cambelt on my lcr done by them and they were nothing but helpful, service manager is a really nice bloke and had a good chat with him whilst waiting for them to finish giving it a wash. They found out that one of the tensioner dampers needed replacing and did it foc. Also sorted out...
  15. Have they ruined the new FR ?? - changes for changes sake!

    Had a look this aft when picking up my lcr after its cambelt change. Have to say it looks better in the metal than in pics.....but i think i prefer the pre facelift version, it just fits together better, and deffinately don't like the fr badge on the front :no:

    I was thinking of red before i picked mine up but have chickened out now,lol,thinking of a diamond cut on the face with black on the inner edges of the spokes.
  17. Project Black mk1 leon now with steering wheel controls

    Like it a lot mate, just got myself a black lcr and the exhaust sits a bit low too so will have a look and see if what you did will solve it :thumbup:
  18. Buying a modified LCR

    Am planning on going to have a look at a modified LCR in the next few days and was wondering what the additional pitfalls, if any, there are over a standard one? The one i am going to look at has been remapped to 270ish bhp, and has a carbon induction filter that i know of. What are the pros...
  19. Remap time, But which one??

    Your making me tempted putting it like that, especially with RS being just down the road, might have to give them a ring. Its not good having a new credit card :(
  20. How many miles per full tank?

    Was getting about 40mpg over xmas, but was never driving anywhere over 15 miles away, mostly about 3-4. Now i'm back to work, its gone back up to about 45-47 mpg which is alright :) After i had me piper exhaust fitted i noticed to mpg went down, but i think that just coincided with the cold...
