    I didn't realise my FR TDI was that fast...

    ...until I drove a 1.4 petrol Ibiza!!! :lol: (sorry, no offence meant to beeza drivers) The FR is currently at the dealers due to the Diagnosis/Pollution light being on (still under warranty), and they kindly gave me an Omni Ibiza. It handles nice and the interiors OK (it has full kit and...
  2. fast idle, engine over-rev on start and dodgy temp gauge !

    Please help, We have a model year 2000 alhambra 1.9 Tdi, (110bhp I think!) and everytime after starting the engine, the glow plug dashboard light stays lit for about 10 to 15 secs and then when I turn the ignition, the car revs all by it's own up to about 2500rpm (really load and...
  3. Too fast for 2.0 Tdi

    Folks, I bought my Altea 2.0Tdi in march and I think it was remapped by the previous owner. Putting it in simple terms a 06 Golf GTi couldnt get the better of me today which I think is kind of crazy when you look at 140bhp (Altea) V 200bhp (golf), let me explain what happened, there’s a left...

  5. Luckily i wasn't driving really fast

    A few days ago my car went out of action, i had caught the oil sump on a stone that tore a hole that emptied my engine completely of oil, mega ****! i was hoping i hadn't damaged anything and stopped in time. So i took the damaged sump off and replaced it, filled the engine up with oil...

    Too fast indicator

    Hey guys, just got back from an extended motorway run and a couple of times during the drive my right indicator developed a problem where it flashed at double speed! The problem only seemed to be with the right indicator and it did correct itself. I guess this is likely to be a loose wire...

    Fast starts...

    Quick question:- What is the best getaway-from-the-line RPM? It's definately better without the ESP (TCS) on as you don't suffer the sapping-all-the-power away problem. (I always find it better to use the throttle to control wheelspin as the TCS will always take away more than necessary.)...

  15. Is 7 seconds very fast (and fuel)...

    Hi all. As you may know, I am after a Cupra R (210bhp) but wondered what the 0-60mph sprint figure really is. It ranges in different sources as some claim 6.5 seconds whereas others claim 7.5 seconds. Also, is 7 seconds fast? I currently drive an MX5 which hits 60mph in around 10...
