My jan 2019 started losing coolant last November. Fortunately the water pump was replaced under warantee but mine had just 11k miles on the clock. I’m still wondering how long this one will last now with the amount of failures

Thanks for that. It is the cupra290 with opf. I imagined you would probably notice more midrange as trying to put 286 through the front from a standing start isn’t the best.

Hi everyone. Just a bit of info needed. I know there are lots of threads about tuning boxes but I’m looking specifically at the jb4. Ive had mapped cars in the past but they were mapped after fitting exhaust, filter fuel pumps etc so most of the tuned cars I owned jumped from stock to plus 70,80...

I would like a copper one ?

I haven’t posted on here yet so here’s mine.

That’s very good going Doug. Don’t think we got anywhere near that

Another good wash and a little blast as I don’t drive it much.

I would fit a front splitter on mine but the bumper almost catches the kerb when driving in our drive. My other half would end up ripping it off.

Finally fitted my Maxton spoiler extension.

If you click on the info button when in the mode setting it sort of tells you. Sport mode only changes dcc and engine to sport. Everything else like steering and lsd standard. Cupra changes engine,lsd, steering dcc etc. I’ve no idea what cupra air con does tough ??

its not really. 3 drive modes and 3 gearbox modes. Each drive mode can have whatever gearbox mode you want. The good thing with the gearbox is with just a flick you have drive, sport or manual straight away. I understand it seems confusing as people think I’ve chosen cupra it’s now in its...

You just remove the snow grate. http://www.mygolfmk7.com/2018/09/stock-airbox-modification/

I would just do the standard air box mod. It allows a bit more air in the filter but as said it would be minimal gains and noise with just a new panel filter.

Well that’s good news though with regards to power. I take it you have the ppf on yours?

Thanks for the info. Mine arrived today and I’ve just fitted it. Transforms the look of the screen.

do you have any figures after the tune with regards to power?

If you have a 19 plate cupra what map are you running as I don’t know of any yet for the wltp cars.

260bhp from a new 290? Is that at the wheels because if its not i would be knocking on seats door with the proof. And 320 from a standard 280 is very impressive. 305bhp is the biggest ive seen standard but i know all dynos are different.

Is it a pano roof on a 5 door as I thought it was the st only?. I’ve got the sunroof on mine.

Can’t say I’m having issues with mine. I mainly use manual mode rather than sport setting on the dsg when I want some fun. The only thing I’ve noticed up to my old 6 speed dsg is that in sport mode my old 6 speed held the gears longer when not on full throttle. If I was in 2nd in the old 6 speed...
