    Cupra R alarm key fob

    Greg, you might want to get in touch. I still have the spare key and alarm fob for your car. They guy who bought it off me never gave me an address to send it to. I also have a brand new Scorpion Cupra R alarm kit unfitted. Oh and a unused roll cage. Dor.

    Poll-fan fuse on battery melted/replaced or not?

    Knackered air con rad fan then? If that happens it draws to much current through the dual cooling fan system behind the radiator and fries the fuse on slow boil. Problem is, the air con fan is not cheap and you have to remove most of the front of the car to change it. You can change fuse...

    new purchase

    Glad you think its a bargain :) . I know its probably worth a little more, but to be honest I just don't have the time anymore, and the next service is the cam belt one. Roll on my Octavia VRS estate diesel-fest. Enjoy :)

    Explain these codes please

    What exactly does the clutch switch do? tell the ECU the engines in neutral? If so, what effect does this have overall? The code clears but keeps coming back after a a few miles driving but not the instant the car is driven. Cheers! Dor.

    Poll-fan fuse on battery melted/replaced or not?

    Happened to me again, Incedentally when I rang SEAT about this they noted they had not heard of this before. Either they are being economical with the truth or their fault recording database etc is just plain not good. Now on the plus side they did say take it to a dealer and some kind of...

    no cooling fan, A/C or turbo cooler fan???!!

    Charcoal It's actually an issue with drawing too much current through the fuse and it being in a non ventilated area (hence fuse doesn't pop, but it's casing melts). Mine did this again today. I removed a lump of charcoal resembling a fuse. Pictures on ther way to SEAT. Cheers Dor.

    can i fit a sports cat to a jetex cat back system?

    I'd say it was a pretty sensible question. Make sure that you know which is being quoted when dealing with pipes and exausts in terms of size. People use both External Diameter (when they try to make the zorst seem bigger - cynical view, but true) and internal diameter. Dor.

    mk3 new clutch info needed

    Clutch wear isn't linearly proportional to power. My point is (or should i say my interest lies with) where does the limit start to apply where standard day to day driving is concerned? now it seems to me that if i'm not ragging it anywhere, a standard clutch could well handle 300bhp /...

    mk3 new clutch info needed

    Probably deliberately over rated. Remember that most of the time Cupra will probably only have 1 or 2 up and that the car has to have been designed to cope 4 up (I imagine) - more weight = extra clutch strain. + we don't all scoot up to santa pod everyday, so noting that in-gear hard...

    mk3 new clutch info needed

    Whatever you find out, post it up. It's all good info, especially as I think there's going to be a sizable amount of Ibiza cupra's starting to get to the clutch changing time of thier lives :P Dor.

    mk3 new clutch info needed

    No, I'm saying that, in theory, the are the same. Although if you look at the parts catalogue there is some confusion between 220mm and 225mm friction facings.... Appologies if my first post missed the mark, was simply trying to say that even though you do have an uprated engine setup, the...

    mk3 new clutch info needed

    Presure plate, Friction material and releaser (AKA thrust bearing). What about new bolts? don't use the old ones. They stretch oddly enough. Well, at least you know that it's the clutch also listed for the Std R. Whixh gives you a little more reliance over knowing your original was put on...
