Morning, I have a 2007 reg ibiza fr tdi. Recently when the weather has been extremely cold the car seems to take longer to turn over to start. Is this just teh case that in the minus temperatures the diesel is getting thicker or do i need to get this looked into. When I say turn over I...

my girlfriend has just bought a 05 reg ibiza s 1.4, 30,000k on the clocks, one lady owner. i drove it yesterday and it seemed very slow to me, like the pick up speed. pulling away in first seems slow and you have to rev it high to pull away at a decent speed. is this normal in the ibizas, its...

I've trawled through a few forums within the past week searching for a solution to the rather odd fault on my 2004 leon tdi cupra 150 with the arl lump fitted but i am unable to yield any information. The fault started when i returned to the car after work on monday and it started for a...

Hi, When I first bought my LCR about 6 months ago every day it used to drive really well (apart from the few off days that every body has) and whenever I wanted the power no matter what gear I was in it just used to fly, but about 6 weeks ago I was on the way home from somewhere and I had an...

I've got a couple of queries. Some nice kids broke into my 01 Leon SE TDI a couple of nights ago and pinched my £1.5k mountain bike :( They somehow managed to get the driver's door undone without the alarm going off and also unlocked the boot and put all the windows down! I can't recreate...

I've browsed the forum's 10 times over and havn't found a solution yet, and I'm getting desperate. A few months back, my Mk1 1.6 petrol leon developed a whistling at 3000 revs, after reading previous threads and conferring with a number of mechanics I put this down to the EGR being full of...

Hi folks. This is my first plea for help :help: on here.... hopefully someone can offer some assistance. Background: I bought me a Leon TDI Cupra a couple of weeks ago (old car was Mk4 Golf PD115, remapped and had a panel filter). I wasn't able to put my foot down on the test drive before...

Hi Since having a couple of new tyres fitted, one appears to have a very slow leak round the rim (6 year old alloy ... but visually not in too bad nick). The folks that fitted the tyre have re-seated it twice now and it still looses a few pounds pressure over a couple of weeks. They now say...

I had my Ibiza FR PD remapped on 3rd Jan by cutom-code. First impressions were that i could feel the car pull better through the rev range past 3-4k revs, but it wasn't the instant transformation i had expected. It was like standard but without the power tailing off. I was told about the map...
