    Wing Mirror Damage

    Something similar has happened to my friends leon, if it can't be gently pushed back in you will need to take off the door card to gain access to the fixture.

    Leon mk2 PD170 Coolant sensor

    from memory the 4pin green sensor is from the older models. I recently replaced the coolant sensor on my mk2 140 tdi and its a grey 2pin sensor. Its located to the right of the engine block hidden under the coolant & air flow pipe. I don't know if thats the same set up as the PD170 though. :-S

    Hard start when engine is hot

    Has any one experienced this on their Leon yet? I've had this problem with my tdi Leon for a while, had it scanned with no faults showing up and then was told the engine coolant sensor might be the problem as it doesn't show up as a fault half the time.
