    PCV Valve / Oil Filler Cap

    Here’s a video of the engine currently YouTube Link I actually don’t think it’s what i think, the RPM just over a minute is around 760, there’s the odd tiny blips that you can’t make out on the graph, goes to around 780/90 for second and i can feel it slightly jump sat inside. It’s probably...

    PCV Valve / Oil Filler Cap

    No fault codes. I did have some misfire ones but i think changing the spark plugs has now sorted it however i’ve not really been able to go on a decent drive since i did them.

    PCV Valve / Oil Filler Cap

    Thanks for that, When i turned the oil cap and lifted slightly there was a big range of suction against it and the engine started running really rough, as soon as i closed the gap again it smoothed back out. Not quite sure now as that goes against both things you’ve said haha, I’ll do...

    PCV Valve / Oil Filler Cap

    I left them pre-gapped as they came. (just to note the slight off idle was the same before any of these main issues i’ve changed)

    PCV Valve / Oil Filler Cap

    Following on from my thread here regarding changing my rocker cover gasket after finding oil on top of one of my spark plugs. I ran into a few further issues of misfiring on Friday (first since changing), enough that i could hardly drive the car. I popped some new spark plugs in as they were...

    Misfire - Oil on spark plug

    Since making the journey back home and getting the misfire again i’ve not had chance to take the coil back out and see if it’s filled up any more from when i initially tried to clean it out. From what i’ve read about the Mk1s it’s normally the gasket and it seems to be an easy enough job to...

    Misfire - Oil on spark plug

    Hi Guys, Friday i topped up my oil as it was a little on the low side, drove a good 150 miles without issue. I took the car out Sunday and noticed lack of power when accelerating. I took the injectors out and 3 of 4 were all fine, the second one had a small amount of oil around and on top of...

    OEMVAG parts

    Looks like they've just gone, the site has been like it has for a while and the facebook pages are still down. I tried calling their company number in Spain with no answer. I called my bank and put in a chargeback request, 3 days later i had a letter from the bank saying they have completed the...

    So whats the deal with the grills?

    Cheers for that, it makes sense now. I do like the look of the top and bottom grill in the FL version but i think the side grills look much better on the earlier ones.

    So whats the deal with the grills?

    That part i get, i have a K1 that has the kit on and the splitter looks like its a Triple R one being fitted, it was more aiming at the honeycomb part of the kit on a pre-FL one which you don't really see anywhere. Confused!

    So whats the deal with the grills?

    So ever since browsing the forums and getting my own Cupra the grill situation has confused me. I know the FL Cupra had the honeycomb top grill and the common one for a top grill seems to be the eBay ones with the black Seat logo. Then on the odd picture i see the the front bumber side...

    What did you and your MK2 do today?

    It does but they are kind of not scratches more of the paint not being applied right or it not taking right in them spots. It seems to be every corner that has a bad finish over all even if it is fully black. I used the contact form on the TRC website but not heard a responce yet. I had more...

    Unfortunatley i cannot do this on mine, well i can. The boot up logo is the Seat one but when its just at the main menu where you select which function to use its a VW one. I cannot see anywhere to change this and talking to A-Sure through ebay they also tell me it cannot be changed. Maybe mine...
