Just wondering what speeds you guys have hit? I know the the topspeeds 146 but i had 140 on about 4.5k revs so im assuming the top speed could easily be past 150? Cars standard btw. Cheers

Irecently bought a 1.4 DSG 2013 Seat Ibiza Cupra REG is SF13 YWW and I am the 5th Owner it's on 64,000 miles and I would really like to find the owner who done the work to the car because the previous owner owned it for less than a year and claimed the car came with the mods when he bought it...

I have a 1.9 tdi 90 and it runs at 90 degrees. My last car ran at around 80. Is this too high or normal for this engine?

Hiya I've just been quoted £60 by a garage for them to run the vagcom after my car had the diagnostics/excessive polution light come on, this seems pretty excessive to just run a piece of software, Can anyone reccomend a decent garage who won't charge the earth for this? I'm in the forest...

Hi, This is my first post so please be gentle :headhurt: At the moment I'm driving a 2004 Fiat Punto hgt, nice little car with only 15k miles on the clock but a little gutless. I have been saving up to buy a mk5 VW R32 Golf. Having weighed everything up i.e the £1200 a year insurance...

for next later in the year when i have changed to 18" wheels on my leon TDI I was thinking of having a set of steel winter wheels and then I realise the other halfs golf TDI came with steel rims 16" which we swapped for alloys so have a set of free winter wheels to use if they fit. I know...

My son's got a bit of a strange one with his '06 1.4 - the emissions control light (yellow engine symbol) comes on and it's a bit erratic at low revs (makes pulling out of junctions a bugger!) but it's only done it twice and both time after a long motorway run. Here's the bit that makes it...

Got a bit of a surprise yesterday when I turned up at a customers premises to find he owns his own garage with a dyno dynamics rolling road... so cheekily I asked how much to run the Cupra on it... free he said ... :funk: So the Cupra was bolted up to the rolling road and given a run... not...

Hey Guys; Outta my own curiosity. Post your Mk.ii Ibizas Furthest and Shortest set of miles on one Full tank of petrol/deisel. Here we go, 1.4 Estilo Furthest: 330miles Shortest: 196miles xD!

Anyone else's Leon just letting them down? My 55 plate Tdi Sport is going through a rough patch 1. ABS Pump failed. £1000 fix. Thankfully Seat UK coughed up 80% so it *only* cost a couple of hundred quid. 2. A couple of days later glow plug and fuel line went, another 150 notes Drove...

i was wondering if there was anything you can do to an LCR to make it run smoother or faster just by tweaking the standard parts fr example making gear shifts shorter or tweaking the turbo pressure? dose changing spark plugs for expensive ones make any difference and putting new fully...

My Cousin is going to buy his mams K1 off her and he is going to GT30 it and is wanting to run a safe 380bhp, i am asking on behalf of him; What would be the best intercooler? ( Without being too expensive) What Uprated Fuel Pump Would he need? What Turbo Back Exhaust would be best? ( i...

Hi guys, I ran the vag-com for first time today, and it is saying that my MAF reading signal is low? My oxygen sensor reading is low. I know where the MAF is and I think I will try to give it a clean with some alcohol or white spirit before I look at buying a new one, but I have no clue where...

Does anyone use run flat tyres- just been told that it isn't recommended as the Leon does not have tyre pressure monitor system. ATS were the company that fitted the tyre in isolation- I have duly replaced the tyre![:@]

Having a change to the custom code remap on friday but not sure yet so just wanted some input of what BOOST pressure yours is running. Im going for stage 2 so any figures on that would be better. Also what sort of BHP are you getting? and would you recommend custom code remap? or would you...

Boost gauges - what type do folks run? got pictures or reccomendations? Looking for a nice quality looking gauge for customer install... ideally red or blue illumination, smoked face nice but not essential. 52mm gauge req'd. Pointer needle needs to be illuminated and needs to be 2bar gauge...

I'm waiting to put bluefin on my TFSI FR but want to let the engine run in a bit first. What distance should I be waiting till before I remap and can really stretch the cars legs?

:cry: Ok... So I have an engine with a problem :headhurt: The story: I have never had one problem with the Cupra since ownership in aug '08 Last night was driving for a good 30 minutes at a steady 50-60mph, the car was fine the whole journey. Within coming close to destination, I...
