    Gearbox Rebuild

    I can get the box removed from the car mate - I could just make a couple of days break away up that way if it adds up well

    Gearbox Rebuild

    Evening guys - has anyone got a good recommendation for getting the gearbox reconditioned on a Leon Cupra R? I’ve got a serious grinding issue and from speaking to a couple of garages I need the box redone for a main-shaft bearing. Thanks Mike

    Heavy grind in gearbox

    Oil seems to be fine - but would the wrong oil possibly be able to cause issues that would cause grinding like that?

    Heavy grind in gearbox

    Hi MTY12345 I haven’t yet - bought it a few days ago like it at a decent price with the chance in mind that it might need a gearbox. Was just hoping it may have been a common problem I just hadn’t come across. Thanks for your reply - I’ll be checking the oil level tomorrow

    Heavy grind in gearbox

    Good evening guys, really hoping to get an insight into an issue I have with a Cupra R 225. The car drives like normal pulls perfect and is lovely - until you take your foot off the accelerator in any gear and it is pure grinding as if missing a gear. It’s definitely not the usual sort of...

    Cupra R New wheel fitment

    Good evening guys. Can anyone tell me the correct width and offset to change the wheels on my Leon Cupra R ? I'm considering 18" same as standard but with wider wheels at the back in mind, or most likely 19" as I want to raise the car a bit so I can fit coilovers and still have original...

    Cupra tdi ARL 150 no power

    Thanks for the reply mate. I have checked all the usual pipes but they look fine, I think I'll have to jack it up and get a better look at the pancake pipe maybe. Just hoping its not a turbo as haven't done one on these so a little unsure of it.

    Cupra tdi ARL 150 no power

    Hi guys, Cupra tdi has been a bit on off with power over the last few weeks, mainly really sluggish in 1st and 2nd gear but last night it seemed completely dead and had a load of black smoke coming out the back. I scanned obd and it said turbo pressure low and I had another code mentioning...

    To break or not to break? That is the question.

    Hi guys, just wondering what could be earnt from breaking a 54 plate Leon Cupra R 225? I unfortunately lost my job after being left unable to work due to a severe car accident last year and can no longer afford to maintain my Cupra as it deserves. Would it make more sense to sell as a whole...
