    How to work out if wheels will exceed the edge of the arch?

    Go on www.willtheyfit.com. You put in all the original wheel and tyre sizes and put in the new ones you want in and it compares them and shows you in a diagram. Also tells you how accurate your speedometer will be after you change them if your changing size and profile. Rele handy mate

    Mine stated to puff some blue smoke. Then not long after my turbo went. Not saying it is the turbo seals just an idea. What is it. Is it an lcr. Be carefull though mate.

    No boost, please help

    It's got a forge 008p on it which is only a few weeks old which seems fine but when the car is revved and let off it doesn't sound like its doing anything which makes me think the problem could be before the dv.

    No boost, please help

    Hi guys, I've got an issue where my car has no boost which is a bit annoying as I use my car daily for work, it's an 04 plate cupra r. Does any know if there's any common issues or where to start looking. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks, James

    misfire intermitant

    Might be worth getting it plugged in to a diagnostics reader as might be a coil pack problem. Apparently its quite common. Ive had 3 replaced on mine. But mines an lcr but assuming they probs suffer the same

    Does anyone know what this is and where I could get one from??

    Yeah thats it mate. And i think the brake booster is only on the cupra Version not the LCR. The only pipe i blocked was the one on the bottom of the inlet
