    Boot Lid

    All sorted. I have to say, I'm super impressed with result! I got a couple other little bits sorted as he was here but genuinely blown away. Thank you all for the recommendation. I don't think the photo of the damage really did justice to how bad it was so i've put a few more on to show it vs...

    Boot Lid

    Had PDR quote on Monday and he’s pretty sure he can get it out so having the work done Friday. Thanks again for all the help, it’s less that half of the body shop repair! I’ll pop so pictures on when it’s done. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    De badged the car this morning. As mentioned on another thread the boot is damaged (hoping to get it repaired asap) and the de badge has only highlighted the dent. [emoji23][emoji2359] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Boot Lid

    Thank you all, turned out it was the wrong paint code anyway which was frustrating. I’ll get a paintless dent removal person to have a look but personally I think the panel is too distorted so will need painting. That said if they can’t make it look better I’ll be happy even if it’s not 100%.

    Boot Lid

    Hi all, Hope you’ve had a good Christmas. I’ve got some damage to the boot lid of my ST and have been quoted silly money to get it repaired. There’s a boot on eBay the same colour but it’s for a facelift; before I buy it can anyone confirm if it’s the same as a pre face lift. I know the...

    After 3 years of having the car, (formally had a MK2) I finally got round to changing the interior bulbs to LEDS which look so much better. Some of the online kits were £40 plus but found someone had a put how many / what sizes you need on a thread so bought them all from Halfrauds for £12...

    Frozen Handbrake

    Its the cable not full releasing I believe. The handbrake comes down but doesn't seat at the bottom. Its a pre facelift mk3 so isn't an electronic handbrake.

    Frozen Handbrake

    ** It's just dawned on me now I could just leave the car in gear and not use the handbrake! :whistle: That said still interested to see if anyone else is having the same issue.

    Frozen Handbrake

    Hi everyone, I keep having issues with the handbrake freezing on my ST FR which seems to happen when the temperature drops to about -5. Interestingly, it always seems to be nearside rear, I've parked with that side closed to my house thinking it might be more sheltered and it didn't make a...

    Just some eBay special (17mm), pack of 20 were a few quid or so. Also boot mats arrived already, albeit to the wrong address; but not bad considering I only ordered at about 2 yesterday and had free postage.

    Picked up my Leon ST Fr, lovvveee it already. So much more refined and grown up than my Mk2 was. The difference between a 1.9tdi and 2.0tdi is night and day as well, so much smoother and quieter. Already bought a few bits for it too, boot liner, wheel nut covers, booked in for dash cam to be...

    Thanks, just having a good look at one now, seems to be loads more than you could do on my MK2. To be honest, I really just want lock/unlock chirps!

    What did you and your MK2 do today?

    My Leon goes tomorrow, held onto it too long and beginning to have some issues with it so it’s time. Should have swapped it for something newer a year or two ago. Absolutely gutted to see it go after 6 years and nearly 100K! All cleaned and ready - I’m not replacing it yet either, will be...

    What did you and your MK2 do today?

    Had my dash cam hard wired to the ignition as the 12v doesn't go off and I always forgot to unplug it. Also whilst the guy was out he sorted my hands free kit. Really decent bloke, and can 100% recommend Miller-Tech. My car is / has become a bit of a shed with it being demoted to tip runs...

    Common Leon MK2 Problem Log

    My clutch and dual mass has been like that since I got the car, 5 years and 80k ago. Wouldn’t worry massively just keep an eye on it. (Also a 1.9tdi, which are known for being more less refined) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
