what did you and your mk3 leon do today

[tracktoy]

Did you manage to get it back in place? If so, could you explain a bit how to do it. I replaced mine a few weeks back and just put the tube back in somewhere.

Finally got round to doing it,

So undo the screw at the bottom and side holding the wheel liner in place

Then you will find the plastic pipe feed it down to the cut out section as you can see in below picture, tighten up all screws and job done, Even did a little bit of cleaning whilst i was in there.

And a bit closer up

For example on my 2014 280 you get although not sure what you are supposed to use when you disks are even bigger (mine are 380)

Your ABS isn't made for 380mm discs either.

Agreed but it does work fine and I spoke with Revo (who provide the big brake kit and have done lots and lots of testing) and they were happy with the setup.

Now Active with new tires

Not very exciting.. but swapped my non-functioning floppy driver-side mirror for a new fully functional scrapyard one: folding and heating functions now fully restored!

Also while I was there I replaced most of the door trim clips I broke a few months ago swapping out the non-functional window buttons! (At least it meant getting the door card off this time was super easy!)

Notable only for the fact that everything went as it should which is very unusual for me and my car DIY efforts (usually there's a stuck bolt or something breaks that shouldn't!).

What is a Ghost II?

What is a Ghost II?

It's an additional immobiliser fitted to a car which basically requires a "Pin" to start the vehicle

Does it also allow you to turn off stop start on newer motors.

Awesome, never heard of it

You can still turn start stop off through the button

I seem to recall back in the original version you could also get stop start turned off permanently must be a crossed wire in my head with a engine map.

Went to the Nurburgring again last saturday (after 2 years), first time with the Cupra. Did not go on the track with the Cupra btw

Seat Leon ST Cupra visits the Nurburgring 05-2025

After 2 years, I visited the Nurburgring again. I stopped just before going to Brunnchen to soak up the atmosphere. Great surroundings & you are always great...

What a great upgrade going from 6.5" to 8" facelift screen... The fit needs some fine tuning, half a MM here and there but I'm happy with the result. Stripped it for a good clean before fitting.

As I've fitted a late 887A MIB2 unit too, no issues with setting the correct resolution etc.

Hopefully have the chance to do Virtual Clocks before the end of summer, if I find the right set close to my mileage. Or maybe just plump up the wonga for a new set and set the mileage myself.

Finally all buttons and switches have white illumination!

P.S. There are few red LEDs left, but I am not going to disassemble MIB unit to replace them

@grabania that's a great refresh on the interior!

Finally got the 30 colours coded, wasn't as easy as first thought.
Also changed the throttle response.

At first I was also stoked about having 30 rainbow colors (with one white extra), but after some testing a lot of colors looked the same. Currently I've got 12 which are pretty distinct from each other.

Here is my configuration if anyone is interested. White and violet must have different LIN values than display RGB values due to inconsistent brightness of diodes (red is brighter than blue, blue is brighter than green).
