Hi guys Hope you are all staying safe and well. I am still around with Lucky the Leon lol For a number of years she has had a slight coolant leak, the level would drop just below the point in the expansion tank maybe after a month or two. Now however it is worse dropping by several MM each...

Hi guys, happy new year to you. Still with the Leon, always get her worked on at JKM. However the other day I had to go local as my NSR wheel almost jammed up, I am 30 miles from JKM so could not get there. Local place seemed very good. New caliper fitted, new discs and pads at the rear...

Chaps, happy new year. The fuse on my socket is 20amp, is this correct please? I have a demister that needs 12 amps and want to make sure the wiring is up to it?

Hi guys Hope you are all safe and well. Over the last several weeks, when I start off and when initially accelerating in gears 1-3 I get an odd little rattle sound from drivers side front. I was assuming this could be a bit of lose exhaust but just wanted to check with you? It is very...

Hi gang Hope you are all staying safe out there in this snowy weather. My Leon has seemed a bit reluctant to start of late, she does start but takes a bit longer and makes a bit of a screech lol. Anyway scanned her and no low volt codes etc. I think the battery just needs a charge up...

Hi everyone Been searching here for ages now trying to find the final word on which points to jack up the car and apply axle stands. Opinion seems to be very split! Would it be possible for those more experienced members to post photos for back and front. Subframe, wish bones, big bolts...

Hi guys Long time no chat. I recently had a MOT done on my Leon. It threw up a MOT advisory that I'd like your opinion on please. 'Front brakes only just met the front brake imbalance requirements. It would appear system needs adjustment or repair' Also referring to the front...
