i agree with you on the foul play. and also on the topic of the police as they are a waste of tax payers money.
its not the facter of it being a old car to me its the issue of them not doing there job that is going to allow whoever it is to keep doing it.
Its been almost a week now and still...
fuming with the police tonight. after not coming out to take any details or look at damage and with no investigation i rang them today to find out when they were coming only to be told they had closed the case as they dont deem it to be malicious damage/arson. After a good rant to the officer on...
You may have a broken wire or sensor shorting out the traction control sensor.
Have you tried to remove the fuse for it and see if it stops your issue(only temporary) that would at least let you know if its the traction control at fault or another issue giving signs of it been that.
when you...
police suspect it to be the case but wont know how they are going to proceed until one comes out.
called them at 745pm sat evening and still not been out.
ye 2nd time exact same starting place on 2 different same model leons.
i discount electrical as theres no live wires in the wheel arch that could short and create a fire.
the indicator is only wires in there and they are not live at all unless switched on.
As car was on drive unused for just...
It is unfortunate for my mother in law that her 2nd cupra has been on fire.
both times the fire has been from what appears to be on top of the front drivers side wheel.
this time tho it was caught and extinguished before taking up the whole car.
damage is still extensive enough to write it off...
finally after a bit of a battle i got this fixed.
replaced the fuel pump as it was struggling to deliver just 1.8bar of pressure when it should be 3bar.
now drives spot on and is like a rocket again.
shame im not keeping it after all the effort in fixing it.

all parts i have had replaced are from recomendations from a vag specialist near me.
always comes up with a different code as soon as one thing is fixed.
latest one is for camshaft position sensor, not had that come up before.

I have had it connected, it comes up with power loss between turbo and throttle. But theres no leaks to be found. Although the turbo is loud under boost.
Changed the cat but has made no difference at all.
Currently got car up for sale(although not on here) as ive had enough of it.
.
Just rang seat dealer in doncaster asking for a price of a catalytic converter for my mk1 cupra.
I nearly fell over when they quoted me £881.40+vat for one.
After ive got this car all repaired im deffinatley going back to my nissans again.
I had it checked on my mates laptop.
O2 readings were all over place but confirmed that it is reading correctly. So only leaves cat as possible problem.
Ive also been getting the eggy smell more often and black soot from exhaust latley.
