Blue or Red imo. Car looks nice btw

i'm only 20 on my leon all mods declared with remap and costs me £800

Before remap i was getting 28-30mpg and after map im sure im getting nearer the 32 mpg. Might be placebo effect though

Possibly. Serviced recently? It's handy to have a spare coilpack if you get a bit of spare cash to keep in the boot. You never know it may get you off that hard shoulder one day..... As for rough running. Get it scanned to see if any faults have saved.

Secondary Air Pump

Glad your happy mate. I've had mine 5 months now and still love it. Had so many problems with it and managed to stick with it now. Just had it remapped to 209BHP and it certainly don't hang around lol

I don't like the idea of a repaired alloy personally. See if you can source a spare one to replace it

Second hand car is such a gamble. Some are brilliant but most have hidden faults and niggles. I've found in my experience that when i have had a car for 6 months or so and the new'ness feeling has gone, you are more accepting the little faults that arise with the cars. When you get it and on the...

Should last more than 6k miles. I do mine roughly every 10-15k which is usually once a year for me.

An excuse to buy a big turbo ;)

It seems fine at the moment no faults logged and pulling like a train throughout the whole rev range.

Nope no EML light just came up when i pluggd a code reader on it. Cleared the faults and cleaned the MAF now all good. If you take the MAF out the pipe you will see a paper like element inside the square hollow part. Hard to describe or imagine but will come clear once you got it in front of...

Sluggish performance, lumpy idling. Hit the limiter feels like you hit a wall lol. These were what i was getting. Bit of brake cleaner on the white paper bit on the maf made it go from black to white the amount of dirt on it was terrible. Feels like brand new now lol. Not sure how long it will...

Most probably i got completely lost and held up in all sorts of traffic lol. Its Imperial Blue Y reg completely standard looking on the outside. I've cleaned the MAF with brake cleaner and put it back together. Now it's pulling very well and seems to fly! No fault codes logged as of yet so...

I've just cleaned my MAF with brake cleaner and worked a treat and car now pulls so much harder

As long as the light isnt on then yes. If it does pop up all the time i wouldn't advise it. I'm getting warning light flashing only on very hard driving so once a week maybe. It's something that could be done at home with the right tools. Its a case of draining oil, Getting under car and...

It may have been regassed, but have a leak so loosing all the gas within a month.

Sounds like pil pick up if its when you booted it. Not the level to worry about i'd be looking at pick up/pump/sensor.. Your in the same position as me on this one. I'm checking the pick up next weekend

That's interesting. It was on a Vectra which has now been sold. While i had it it was fine for about a year like that. See what you mean though.

oops my bad my car is a mk1! It's on the drivers side for me however.
