    Front caliper on 1.8 GTI 16v

    Whatever is easier to be honest. I don't know what is involved with a repair kit, I guess dismantling the caliper and re-greasing it etc.? I don't mind spending a bit more money if it saves me time and effort as long as a "bit" more isn't silly money in comparison. I suspect a new caliper to...

    Front caliper on 1.8 GTI 16v

    My front right caliper has started binding, the front right brake is obviously on when it shouldn't be as after a few miles the front right brakes are VERY hot and smell like I've done 15 minutes around Donington! The car also feels slow due to the brake being on. I took the wheel off and...

    As I said I still have mine, just drop me a PM or something to let me know if anyone wants to buy it off of me. It comes complete with the tool for cleanly removing the door card if I remember correctly. I always meant to fit it to my car as it would have really been nice to have (that is why...

    I never did fit my kit to my Leon Cupra R and have since sold the car! It is still in the jiffy bag it was sent in. :redface: If anyone wants it I'll sell it on (assuming I can find it). EDIT: I've now sold the Autowindow kit :)

    SEAT Immobiliser problems?

    Cheers Mark, I'll have a look at the weekend and check the connections. I'll try and sort it out myself rather than having to call you up again ;) GTI 16v, I've only had the car a matter of weeks so am still discovering its "features". The fault code was definitely relating to the immobiliser...

    SEAT Immobiliser problems?

    Thanks Mark, as I expected from what you said on Saturday to be honest. Where is the immobiliser located? Is it a little black box somewhere near the steering column?

    SEAT Immobiliser problems?

    I’ve just got myself a nice tidy Mk2 Ibiza 1.8 16v GTi as a runabout. I'm having some problems with the SEAT immobiliser. The car has a fancy after market alarm / immobiliser which is working fine but the SEAT immobiliser is still operating and causing problems. Sometimes the car will start...

    SEAT Leon Strut brace

    Phew... that took me for ever to read this thread! :blink: I wish I would have seen it sooner as I have been wondering about strut braces for a while now. I'm after improving the handling of my Cupra R where ever possible and am very interested in a strut brace. While driving (trackday...

    Got my kit this mornining! Yay! Thanks Scott. It does look quite complicated to fit (as far as the removing of door panels etc. goes). I am a little concerned about damaging the door panel and the plastic membrane, but I think if I am carefull it should be fine. I just need to find time to...

    Pollen filter water leak ?

    I had a similar thing. The water went to my rear passenger foot well though and it was pretty deep! :eek: They had my car in for 3 days to remove the mats / carpet and dry them out while they put sealent around the pollen filter. It hasn't happened again since.

    I think I will try and fit it myself also. While I am at it I will try and fit my Bluetooth in car kit for my phone. Shouldn't be too complicated to do... I hope!

    Damn, can't get PayPal to work correctly! Keep getting an "TEMPLATE [] LOAD FAILED" error below my country after clicking continue. Anyone else having this problem? :cheers: EDIT: Ok so I have now setup a PayPal account directly with them. But it will take a week or so for the $1.95 USD...
