    Black Leon FR TFSI

    Dont know, was it an optional extra? It is an FR though - all the seats, steering wheel, rear bumper, exhaust, suspension etc are from an FR. At least I hope it is! Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk

    Black Leon FR TFSI

    Is it possible to just spray over the reddish bumper with a can of spray that is same paint code as the rest of it? Or does it need to be done properly as I dont want to make it look naff? Any help appreciated. Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk

    Black Leon FR TFSI

    So I bought an FR bumper and got it fitted but the black is slightly different as it has a slight red tinge to it and now I see it all the time. Are there any easy ways of making it 'blend' easier or is re-spraying the only option? Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk

    No idea to be honest. It was involved in an accident before I got it so its possible? Would flushing the system work you reckon or is it more likely that I'll have to replace the whole matrix? Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk

    So just audi vw have diagnosed it as a suspected blocked heater exchange matrix and quoted £530 with parts and labour. I wasn't expecting that! Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk

    Help! Mystery noise from 2.0 tfsi

    I have this noise that is a bit like a grinding belt that happens when the engine is switched on and off about 3/4 times in the space of an hour/when the car is warmed up. The local VAG specialists don't know what it is but dont think it is engine related? The cambelt and water pump were...

    Tips on Spray painting

    If the weather holds out I want to spray my chrome leon front grille black. I have bought some plastikote satin black paint, so is it just a matter of removing the grill and spraying or do I need to sand, prime and lacquer it or will 6 - 8 coats be enough? Thank you :)

    My mechanic seems to think it is the motor that needs changing. Does anyone know if this is a difficult job as he seems to think it requires removing the whole dash? Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
