A 1hr Job to do a brake fluid change took me and my bro 3.5hrs with the eezibleed kit wtf :( broke the rear drivers bleed nipple and had to run around trying to find another one. Finally got it up and running again, bloody pita job, looks like it had never been done.

Sat Nav randomly stopped working and refused to get a GPS fix whilst fuel range dropped from 70 to 50 even though I only drove 8 miles. Annoying car!

EDIT: Just drove another couple of miles and it dropped down 15 to 35 miles remaining, so I pulled over at the local rip off petrol station and chuck in a tenner which somehow pushes the range up to 135! Seems wildly out of calibration? Oh and the Nav started working again.

I've had a fuel sender unit replaced under warranty before, you may need one?

I had the exact same problem on mine, massive pita :lol:

That could be it, did you have similar symtoms?

This was in my old car which didn't have GPS. However, the calculated range, and the fuel gauge were temperamental. I might get in the car and it would display a full tank, I'd drive 2 miles home and next time I get in the car it would display 14/16ths or similar. Basically it would jump about and wasn't really accurate.

Just got back from getting remap done.

140 PD TDI up to 180.

Why o why didn't I get my Passat done, what difference.

Same journey back and 10mpg extra and I spanked it on the way home.

Acceleration is fab nice and smooth.

Well chuffed.

Booked my LCR in for its first MOT and 3rd year service, at Carlisle Bristol Street Motors Seat dealership. I know when it was a Dobies it was meant to be rubbish but it might have changed (probably not) since its changed owners. I want to keep the full dealer service history and its the closest dealer to me.

Shnazzle, that's nice of you to say so, it needs dropped as it sits way to high. But I agree, black on black shiney action is lush :lol:

Wouldn't say it sits way too high.
Just some Prolines would fix it. I'm not into the slammed look. Besides., this is the land of speed bumps.

I'm looking at Prolines as well. MAY consider sportline.

Never seen a full-on black leon like yours. Stunning
