    It would seem the main fuel pump is at fault, What do you good people think that this would be worth as a non runner that will run. 02 Tdi Ibiza sport 110 with 120k on the clock.ironically enough is 12 months mot. He is going to ebay it but unsure on what to ask for it.

    Dead as a dodo

    Update on this for you, He managed to get it started and got it to the garage, On inspection and ecu read which was succesful on this occasion it is a fuel pump problem. Pump plus labour £1000, so the car is now a write off. Real shame as apart from this was a nice little car.

    Remap for a leon FR170

    To be honest they are not worth selling on, as people will only pay just over £200 for a reset handheld. Best keep it for your next car if it is of the VAG family. I personaly went for Bluefin as it was a less aggresive map than others and touch wood has caused me no ill effects. It is...

    Remap for a leon FR170

    Hi Nik, Not sure on the Cr engines, many people have reported that VAG locked the ECU for service port remapping on the newer cars. There are ways around it, like removing the ECU from the car and then mapping it. I have Bluefin on mine, but mine is a PD. Although you keep the box they...

    Hi Nik, Welcome to the forum, It depends if your car is a Cr or a Pd engine. Pd lots of different maps out there, Cr different kettle of fish. No maps you can take with you,they are written to the ECU. Hope this helps.

    FR Tdi 170....Tyres!?

    I am running the 452's, done about 7K on them at the moment and still have 5mm on the fronts and the rears still look like new. Not the best wet tyre though, they spin up easily in 1st, 2nd and on occasions 3rd. In the snow they were hopeless in the dry they seem pretty good though.
