Striped my brake caliper off to find out if it’s getting fluid - it’s not…
Would a failing pump cause only 1 caliper not to work? Can only find the main distribution pump (near the air filter) would expect another bias block somewhere - any one have links to diagrams?

The problem is they (1) dont work so need to do something - it’s not just a repaint needed. The cosmetic was for size increase rather than stopping power need. I don’t disagree they are powerful enough for the LCR but in the same breath 225bhp was enough…why modify it…
Will dig out the stuff I...
I would as don’t particularly want to spend a fortune on new stuff (was trying to do ‘man maths’ to justify the spend).
May want some other parts as well so could be a trip down to you.

Looks like I need to get my Brembos refurbished as one isn’t operating correctly.
I know you can get service kits but as they need paint as well I have been looking at a full rebuild and paint by specialist companies. This got me to thinking if I’m paying out for this is there any next step...
Possibly the same one. For that I’m just going to trim out the Perspex as only those who know the car will know it’s wrong.
You can’t really see it in this photo but this is the state of my window rubbers.

Spoke to Liam, who was at the Vag Yard getting some work done, and he picked one up last month. Not via TPS or Seat but a general for sale post!

Found a post from 2 weeks ago where the last side was bought.
Also spoke to someone who found a new old stock scuttle. It’s out there somewhere!

Most likely, my next stage was second hand but it’s hard to show the damage etc.
Shame these aren’t more popular as there’s a few companies re making parts for other brands (ok RS turbos etc but still).

They are a little bit not too bad, that’s the most frustrating thing.
I thought I read a post where you could still get them but they were expensive.

I know, it’s a bit like asking for the winning lotto numbers.
But wanted to start looking for when I replace them as some muppet polished the car and scratched them all as well as using brick acid on them.

Just seen how bad my side window rubbers are. Has anyone found anywhere that still stocks them all i.e. driver and passenger both front and rear?

Do you remember if you took all of it out or just the sides?
Was it a Toledo gator that fits or just a specific year for the Leon? May see how much one is to try first (can’t uncut it).
I know what you mean about the right combo, thought I’d lucked out with this having the armrest cut out...
Ignore the badly marked ash tray cover I will find an eBay replacement - don’t suppose anyone has the correct colour code?

So finally got a black lower double din console (mine was dark grey). Went to fit and noticed the 12 supply doesn’t fit, not a drama a job for later to fit a USB port there. Then noticed I’ve got the grey handbrake cover not black (god knows how)! And to top it off it’s got the small gear gator...
Ah cheers, when I looked on the website it said it came with fixings. Hate taking things off and finding out I need more bits!

Bought a CB heatshield second hand and didn’t realise it didn’t come with fixings [emoji2959] Need to work out what I need now.
