    Guari's FR

    Sorry to say I've parted with my beloved Leon. Growing up has hit home and I've upsized to a Tiguan. Thanks for those who followed this short log of my car. Loved it and miss it very much but time came. Take care all!

    1.4 TSI ACT Oil Consumption

    Sorry I never meant to sound patronising, it's just that some people don't know though. Hope you sort it. If I were you I'd add a bit to top it up. If in doubt call your dealership, they could advise you.

    If you get longer USB cables (I used 3 meter cables for the front camera and two phones) remember that the plug of the camera is not exactly the same of typical phones, so you must order accordingly. Also, Sean put the cigarette splitter tucked away where the pedal box would be on the passenger...

    Sorry I don't have any pics showing the inside of the car and the car's away being detailed. Anyhow, you can see where I mounted my camera in the upper left corner of this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXTEvKPC2iQ&feature=youtu.be The rear camera is mounted dead center and uppermost...

    Another transcend drive pro user here. In fact, I like it so much I have two. One for the front and one for the rear. To me its a hazard to have cables dangling from the lighter socket so I had it wired to the fuse box with a splitter. I have four USB cables feeding from it; two for cameras and...

    Picking alloys is more difficult than I thought... how wide?

    I think you have to ask the shop about the offset, I think that's critical to get a correct fitment. I would call them and ask

    Leon fr springs

    I got some pro lines and while I love the upgrade to the car's handling, I hate the nose down look. Had I known I would have gotten something different.

    Warped discs, FR 14 plate

    Just passed by my trusted mechanic and he saw the video I linked. His opinion was for disc replacement and to look for an aftermarket option unless I want that happening again. He's a VAG only mechanic.. Now the hunt begins for better hardware Sent from my HTC One M9 using Tapatalk

    Warped discs, FR 14 plate

    Thanks for the thorough reply. Much appreciated. I'm sure my technique has plenty room for improvement and I've already booked a track instructor for Croft in the next month :) I know I did push hard on the brakes though as I was progressively and safely testing the car's limit. It was a...
