    265 rear valance and exhaust

    Hi guys not been here for a while since i swapped over to a vxr. In the near future i will be looking at most likely makeing the swap back. So my question is if i buy a mk2 facelift cupra is it a straight swap to add the 265 twin centre exit? Thanks Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

    Cupra R exhaust systems

    I am thinking the same as I had a 53 amk which was the same as the bam system. Trying to find out if the early 2002 was different or run a single cat rather than a twin cat.

    Main beam,wipers,indicators,heaters stopped working!!

    After some further research, I found it could be a relay under the steering wheel trim, crazy place! Or the ignition switch. Will try these tomorrow. I thought fuses first but none problems share the same fuse.

    New Cupra

    Seems like a god insurance plan that really. All I would do. Is just drive like I miss Daisy for those first three months and your in the clear. Whilst the box is there i just wouldn't take any chances. Enjoy fella.

    Insurance is surely in the 5k region.

    Boost leak? Strange noise...

    Possibly a splitting hose a loose one could be the culprit. Like you said playing around could have sorted it. Time will tell.

    is it bad news for diesel cars?

    Yep heard the same. Was told a minimum of 40 quid will be added to the tax and I don't think all petrol cars will be getting away with it either.

    Boost leak? Strange noise...

    I get a similar sound with the same filter. Found they tend to be quite restrictive compared to say a jetex open cone. Forge dv may need a service, also found out these do leak.

    creeking noise

    Wishbone bushes most likely perished mate, change them along with track rod end and that will tighten the steering up nice.

    Sounds like a Supercharger :-(

    No need to do that fella, every one flips the lid now and again when things go wrong. Just follow the sound advice from this thread and keep things updated as there isn't a seat owner out there that likes to see another one bite the dust.

    Sounds like a Supercharger :-(

    New turbos or reconned ain't as expensive as your thinking mate. It may not even be that yet, its hard to diagnose from that clip, its just an educated guess. I would do as stated before, go back to standard air box and see if you have the same sound. Personally I don't think its the bearing...

    Map??

    After a lot of research I opted for badger 5, getting mapped tomorrow. I'm fairly close too so was an easy decision for me. Not sure about AMD but a few guys here use there maps. You have mods in place or after a stage 1?
