Hi guys, The cupra has developed a horrible misfire when up to temperature. When its cold no problems but as soon as the engine has got up the temperature any boost will cause it to misfire. Scanning on brings up codes for random/multiple misfiire and misfire cylinder 1 and 3. I changed...

Hi guys, Can someone please help me before I burn my car. I have had the usual issue of my door not unlocking, come to the conclusion same as last time that is the door module. No problem, this time i purchased a brand new one from SEAT at a lovely cost of £156.00. Finally some free time to...

Hey guys, I accidentally bought DS2500 pads for a facelift Cupra/R that dont fit my calipers I have a Pre-FL cupra. After speaking to the seller they have informed me that there are two types available and to check i need to use the photos against my current pad. When i bought my last set of...

Hi guys, Due to change my pads very soon and want to put some better fluid in. Currently have some normal every day fluid and get a fair bit of fade with some spirited driving so while upgrading my pads i am going to replace the fluid too. My question is, how much fluid do i need for a full...

Hey guys, After having a stage 1 on the cupra for 7 months the original clutch has finally started to slip. Pretty impressed with how its held up. I am looking for an upgraded clutch, nothing too crazy as i wont be going any more power than stage1. As tempting as it is, it is just...

Hey guys, My low tone horn has packed in and the car's horn now sounds ridiculous lol. Am i right in thinking they are both located behind each fog light? What is the best way to remove and get access? Looking at it they look like pigs to change! Any help would be most appreciated...

Hi guys, Got a little issue as of today. When trying to push the gear stick to select reverse i have found it will hardly push down. Luckily it moves enough to select reverse but something has happened and i dont know what! Any help?? I assume a bush or something has come off, but...

Hi Guys, I just fitted a new CD player to the car. Works great and well happy. Its an RNS510 style (not an actual one) double din. Since fitting my radio reception has been terrible. I have a stubby aerial which has always made it worse. On the aerial adaptor at the back of the CD...

Hi Guys, Got a problem with the cupra. Last few weeks ive been getting a bad creaking noise when braking and accelerating. More noticeable when its dry. Its been into the garage and got told the dog bone mount was knackered. No problem, it sounded right as I had the car jacked up to...

Hi guys, Got a little problem with my starter motor. Yesterday the car wouldnt start. Could hear the solenoid but nothing, just the click. Found out that every time i was turning the ignition sparks were coming from my starter. Obviously not a good sign and i want to get it fixed...

Hi guys, I have been having a progressively worsening "rumble" that starts at around 20mph and up. when i turn the wheel (left or right, it doesn't matter) the noise and feel gets worse. It feels like a rumble which initially made me think wheel bearing but they all seem fine, no noise...

Hi all, My Cupra has got this horrible grinding sound. It only happens when im turning right, not far off full lock. It will only do it on the overrun in 1st gear (i guess because the engine breaking is quick violent). I have no idea what it could be... im hopeful that its possible a...

Hi all, Coming home from work today there was an almighty bang and one bolt on my rear disc dust cover??? has decided to go.. So i have a horrible rubbing sound and immensely annoying rattle that makes my car sound terrible. So question, How do you remove them? Are they ok to take off...
