you now want to put some lubrication on the catch that is a little more permanent than WD40. In a bind i used some wet MTB chain lube but something like a white silicone grease would work as well

coilpack part no. 225 Cupra R, Coilpack part no. is 06B905115R, if you go somewhere like VW TPS they will ask for your chassis no. As for cost i think last time i brought a couple of the them they came to approx £70. Hope this helps PS; The search function is quite useful with regard...

If you still have warranty remaining you may be able to push your dealer into replacing your backbox. They did mine without me even asking about it.

Also had this sunday morning (temp 1° C). Checked coolant, level was fine restart cleared fault. Shouldn't be anything to worry about, wouldn't think about changing coolant resevoir/sensor unless its occuring constantly.

Brucel, Had this myself over the weekend. Front nearside bulb not flashing, I intailly thought blown bulb. Once id managed to take it out I tested it with DMM, bulb not blown so reconnected it to wiring harness and tried it again worked ok:shrug: Assume it must just have been i dodgy connection...

old sps3 as far as i'm aware, set high boost setting some where between 0-9 or set low boost 0-9, New sps3 combines both the scales together making it simpler (maybe at the expensive of loosing some fine adjustment??). Your more than welcome to pop down one evening this week to lend it though.

Whereabouts in south yorkshire? I'm in north notts/derbyshire area if you don't mind travelling. Its an SPS3 mark 1 (hi/lo boost settings) if that makes any differance to you.

The exhaust mount CupraUK is on about is probably the centre one. Standard cheap and nasty part built down to a cost which eventually rusts through and breaks off exhaust. Try moving tip of exhaust from side to side (when cold) to see if you get the same noise or get car up on ramps and have a...

Should be called the SEAT Ballena (spanish for whale), tis huge

Mikey, no need one button press locks doors and deadlocks them aswell, two button presses in quick succession locks doors but deactivates deadlocking. Both of the leons i've had/have did this aslo pretty sure its in the manual that way round. This is opposite to ford where 1 press locks and 2...

No probs, fingers crossed/touch wood and all that about mine

Hi Neil, I Would speak to dealer about the 5 year warranty on certain coil packs, with regard to what model number/serial number/manufacturing date this warranty applies to. Then check remaining cylinders as you may have 'early/frail' design coilpacks even though car is 2004 registered...

More seaching seems to confirm that as well as GT28 big turbo kit as upgrade on offer from regal. Assuming everything else is identical eg intake manifold,dp size etc i think thats a fairly safe assumption.

Combined manifold and tubine housing casting is also present on Astra VXR turbo. Have been trying to find out manufacturer for this turbo but to no avail at present.

Had a good look yesterday at the IC hoses on drivers side. Top hose both clips can be got at from engine bay with out removing anything. Bottom hose looks/feels like it should be able to be got at underneath after removing undertray. All this is assuming the spanish spanner monkey who put it...

Phil, have had back bumper done, other things have come up which took away funds for front. Flew through its mot yesterday, last service before warranty ran out had the 'R' badges/gearknob and backbox done for free. Backbox had a bracket broken, thought this would come under wear & tear but...

Pipe from one IC to the other can be got at underneath after taking off undertray. turbo side of drivers side IC maybe able to be got at by partially removing wheel arch liner or taking washer bottle out.

Yep, shouldn't be anything to worry about quite normal if have been using air con alot

no probs mate, if you can't get another relay, try testing current one out of the car. By picking the coil with a 12v feed (if its a 12V relay) then measuring resistance across closed contacts.

Its possible the switched contacts are high resistance even though the coil is being energised (relay clicking). Is there someone near to you to lend a relay off to confirm this before shelling out for new relay? If still not getting power at the terminals with a proven relay ther may be a dis...
