    Troubles with 20VT at 85K

    the crank pipe might not cause the issues but I bet other pipes will be the same condition (as the will be the same age ect) get the car diagnosed and see what faults you find. before you replace any sensors check the pipes that go to them for splits, normally under the manifold from my own...

    Why not to delock or have a fat Mrs!

    I leave my car in gear due to the car rolling in to a hedge, due to the rubbish handbrake. I really don't trust the handbrake alone.

    MK1 Leon Question

    Just to add my bit. I had an ibiza 1.4 8v before the leon and it too was crap on fuel. Truthfully there wasn't much difference with mpg and that was comparing the same 600 mile round trip I did for years. You need a diesel for cheaper motoring
