All depends also of the ET value of your current rims. With the stock rims with ET 50 spacers of 10 to 15 mm should be no problem. But when you have a not oem rim let's say with ET45 and 6,5J width of the rim that already widens the track with about 10 mm for each wheel so maybe a 5 mm spacer...

On Dutch Seat forum a member changed the whole clutch assembly for a Sachs performance one by himself in 3 1/2 hrs. So where do they take that 5 to 6 hrs from for only dissasembling the bell house????

Just try this: With a manual do 10x a 0-60Mph and try to shift flawless as fast as possible these 10 times: won't happen. Take a DSG box and do 10x a 0-60Mph: always the same flawless gearchanges without the "nodding" when shifting. This is the real difference.

Not forget when the car comes off the production line they let it run already then with full power and max revs to check the engine!!! Read the article well I posted.

There are many myths about running in an engine. But one is recommended for performance engines, read here: http://www.mototuneusa.com/break_in_secrets.htm

Here in the Netherlands Seat priced the new Cupra at least Euro 5000 more expensive than the 280 2 1/2 year ago with equal options. I personally think that this way they will lose a lot of potential buyers and current Cupra 280/290 drivers. Why they put the price up thát much? Haven't a clue...

I have now my 3rd windscreen in my Cupra in 8 months time, just bad luck. Camera (when you have one for lane assist) does not need calibration. It does it by itself automatically I am told by as well dealer as Autoglass.

Supposedly The Cupra300 ST should have the "old" Golf R 4WD en S3 setup. That means NO electronically controlled mechanical diff lock at the front but only a normal diff with XDS. But good that you have the mechanical diff lock in your contract so when this is true you could get out of it.

Default setting is 100%. I turned mine off by VCDS completely and now it sounds 100% natural and sounds as a real good engine should sound.

When you have a REVO map over OBD maybe you can ask them to throttle the power in 1st and 2nd gear thát much so wheelspin is limited. With a stage 1 or even more on a stage 2 wheelspin will only increase and get harder to control by your right foot. Here in The Netherlands 2 welknown tuners...

Getting colder and on wet roads I experience the same, but my pss on the front need replacement in next spring some time after switching from winter tyres to the pss again Send from my Shield Tablet

When there is really a coolant leak and the level is getting too low you will get for sure a warning on your dash and in the car menu. So check the level in the expansion container if it is below the low level indicator.

The bridgestones perform under wet and cold conditions not optimal. Grip not so good and indeed without foot hard on the throttle in corners it is understeering. Same experience on a damp track. Put Michelins PSS under it and it wil transform the car.

Updates are released in May and November each year. Here is the link to check but not forget they only will work when you have Mapcare...

In the rest of Europe (like in the Netherlands) one can order Mapcare with the car. You wil get then 3 years of free updates you must then download and copy to the Navi SDCard that is supplied with the car by yourself. Unfortunately that is what I read here impossible in the UK what I think is...
