    Handbrake Warning Light

    Thanks for that, I have had a look on the bay, but I couldn't see any new ones cheaper than £85 each, but I have found a website that sell brand new ones red powder coated for £75 each

    Handbrake Warning Light

    I have my limits, I'm learning and doing more things myself, but I feel this will be above my skillset, so I think I will go with the option of buying new ones, I'll check your RR out though

    Handbrake Warning Light

    Yeah I think by the sounds of it I'm having the same issue then possibly, Time to look for some replacement calipers then, I think I would prefer having 2 new ones instead of getting them repaired.

    Handbrake Warning Light

    Hi, Looking for some advice, I keep regularly getting the the handbrake warning light flash and make a loud alarm beeping noise 3 times. I have been told this is due to brake fluid level being low, but I have topped it now about 7-8 times in the last 6 months, surely this is not normal...

    Friendly MOT

    No no no....just the MOT places i've been to before, the tester just always has an attitude and an air of ignorance about them, as the title says, a friendly MOT... I wish MOT testers would seriously get over themselves and just be normal.

    No pull in high gears

    Sorry, I don't post on here very often, I should stop assuming. Anyway, Leon Cupra R I did take the MAF out yesterday and give it a little clean, then had a play on the way home and it didn't stutter or anything, kept on pulling as normal. Think I need to get a heat shield made up for...

    Thanks, will have a check, but feels like something more serious, hopefully it is a split hose though.

    No pull in high gears

    Hi, so I had a bit of a play on a dual carriageway yesterday, acceleration from 2nd was fine, no issues all the way up into 4th, boosting fine, then when I was in 5th, around 5k revs it had a little splutter and felt like it had no power, my foot was down but no boost, any ideas? Thanks in...

    From panel filter to cone filter after remap?

    Thanks very much for the reply, this is what I was hoping for and the restriction I can feel does appear to be related to the revs. We will see once fitted if improved. Cheers again.

    From panel filter to cone filter after remap?

    Hi Guy's, Advice really appreciated, I have had a custom air box made with pipercross panel filter in and have had my Leon Cupra R mapped by the amazing Bill at Badger5. I think the air box is restricting air flow and I'm looking at removing this and installing a cone filter. The...
