A guide to replacing the rear pads and discs (272 mm) on a Mk. 3 Leon with independent rear suspension: The only difficult bit about this job is removing the caliper carrier bolts. The factory tightening spec is 66 ft/lbs plus 90 degrees which is very tight indeed. If the fasteners are rusty...

Hi all, First proper post, so hopefully this is the right place for this. It was a beautiful Tuesday evening. The sun was shining and I had just beaten a GTI who was battling for first place when merging into a single carriageway. The car was making some beautiful noises as I manoeuvred around...

Just wondering if anyone knows whether the version 1 of the VAGsport res delete will fit to a cupra 290, as i’ve bought that version however i’ve seen on other forums that version 1 only fits to 280’s? Bare in mind I only found out that info after i’d bought the part.

I realise this isn't the most difficult thing in the world to do. But with fitting charges from £30-£120 I decided to save some cash and give this a go myself. I chose the Nextbase 512GW for several reasons: I wanted the option to record speed It had to be removable so it didn't get stolen on...

After doing this to mine i have decided to write a simple guide for it, Please note I am not to be help responsible if you break your RNS310. This guide updates the firmware on the device it will not update the maps! This guide is only for the RNS310, Not the RNS315,RNS510,RNS810 or any of the...

Just thought I would post up the VCDS mods that I know work on the Facelift Leon with Virtual Cockpit. For reference - These were all proven on a Leon Cupra 300 sc - MY18 - Virtual Cockpit For reference - I use a genuine Rosstech Hex-CAN cable with the latest VCDS software. Display Drive...

The purpose of this manual is to show you how you can remove the central console and then remove the switches out of the unit to enable work to be carried out. I will update over time to show how i fitted a stop start memory module (I need to run a 12v power feed to the back so on hold for a...

I was in the process of fitting a new rear diffuser to the car and it became obvious that i would have to remove the bumper to do this. I took a few photos and the rest is wordy but hopefully it will help you if you have to take off yours. HEADS UP - to remove the rear bumper you have to...

Has anyone got any pics of where and how to route the OBD cable for the JB4 on a RHD Cupra? Is the passenger footwell the best option or is there somewhere in the drivers side footwell? Thanks for any help.

Fr' Cryin' Out LOUD. My tire guy tried his best but in the end I had to replace it. And the rest , seeing as they already had 20,000 km on them and I could get 4 for a better deal than 2. Kept the 3 remaining as backups (and some project ideas)

Blacked out the damned cheek-mounted "foglights". Foglights should be low and jaw-mounted. To cut under the fog and to give the car a more aggressive look.

Like it's brothers before it, I added my "signature" stripe of plastidip to the lower doors. In my opinion it narrows the doorline visually, filling in the vast blank space and actually drawing more attention to the cutlines on the flanks. Not to mention saves the door edges from damage.

Hello fellas, new to posting but been lurking for a little while. Just after everyone's opinions here as I'm in a bit of a rut with regards to which car to get. So I'm looking to spend no more than £25k, and it's between the Leon Cupra 290 or a MK 7.5 Golf R. I'm going to test drive both...

Greetings, soon upgrading the Cupra to K04 Hybrid with full fi 76 exhaust R32 style, do I need to remap the car ASAP or I can drive it like this for some time until I fit all the other stuff(rs4 valve,FMIC,HPFP etc...). Will the ECU complain and is there a danger of blowing the piston if the...

Hi all. I've become ultra confused reading all the threads on which head unit will work with my cupra. I have a mk2 2007 with that gopping stock radio in it. I want to upgrade it to something better that will work with my steering wheel controls. Don't care much for satnav but wouldn't say no...
