    Rust is starting to creep in on this and the lacquer is starting to fail in places as well. The cost for me to fix that and fit all the mods to get it how i want it would be a fair bit and the Fabia i've found is a much better deal for me money wise. It already has all the mods done to it, i'd...

    No funky colours i'm afraid. Too old for that now :happy: This will be up for sale at some point soon as i leave the SEAT scene and enter the Skoda one instead and replace this with a Fabia VRS

    I was looking for your project thread and it wasn't showing anymore, then i seen your stuff for sale in the for sale section. Sad times. I seen your Rainsports you had for sale as well but i needed 17's for these VRS Spiders. I live in Scotland as well so would have been a bit of a distance to...
  5. Intermittent Glow Plug Problems & EML

    Thanks. Will give TPS a ring when on my day off tomorrow. Do you know if you need to cut anything for this, or if it's connected via a plug? Done a lot of searching on Google but seems to vary depending on what engine and car it's in.

    Didn't realise how long had passed with me not updating this thread. Not loads happening but few more developments. TCS light was coming on after 10 minutes so fixed the alternator load cable via the guide on here. Sorted! Been having a weird issue with the glow plugs as well. EML has...
  9. Intermittent Glow Plug Problems & EML

    This is a bit of a strange one, so bear with me. For the last year or so, my EML has been on in my car. It always referred to Glow Plug 3. Just ignored it all this time as car had started fine. Decided to sort it the other week so done a resistance test on all 4 glow plugs and sure enough...
  10. Trouble with 3rd Gear after going through a flood

    Sounds like the gearbox oil has been contaminated with water getting into it. If a synchromesh hub us slightly worn, then having oil mixed in with water will make it much worse - hence the crunch. I'd drain the oil and replace.

    Been looking back though this thread and not sure why some of the image links have broken, oh well. Not much been happening since the front brakes were sorted. Went to bleed all 4 again and when loosening the bleed nipples from the rear calipers, the threads stripped on one So ended up...

    Booked back into Simon's Custom Exhausts later this month for more exhaust work. Getting another pipe made up so i have the option of using the baffled straight through backbox, or just a straight unbaffled pipe instead (running backbox just now) Lacquer on door seems to be getting so thin...

    Thanks mate. Colour is down as Titanium according to the place that powdercoated them but it's Anthracite to me. Colour changes slightly in certain lights like real Anthracite does.
