150

as above, just fitted one to my 104 pd, getting mapped soon, anyone else done it, and if so what other bits have you changed? injectors? cheers

Yes, it's the age old question... I have searched for the question of whether I should get a new clutch when chipping this car, in order to get the full potential out of the engine and transmission and it seems (read: is obvious) from reading that an uprated clutch must be done with the chip...

Picked my FR150 up two weeks ago now so i thought a couple of pics were in order! Pics taken after a good clean and wax! Let me kno what you think and what mods should be on my list!

I thought i'd ask in here as its acommon engine in the tolly. How do you tell if the V5 is a 150 or a 170? i was lead to believe that the 170 always came with sat nav but as i'm now looking at the MK4 golf with the same engine. Is there anyway to tell from just looking at it as i noticed...

was thinking of installing a stainless steel intercooler this weekend but i have no idea where the original one is on the pd 150? a friend said check the wheel arches but no dice. i followed the hoses but still couldnt see as its quite a cramped engine bay. Any ideas where it is, or has any one...

Start the car, pull away and it's fine. Then once on the road and the car is a bit warmer, pulling away and accelerating from about 20mph in 2nd or say 30mph in 3rd, along with the normal diesel sound is this other noise, like a very light, rapid tapping sound, coming from the engine I *think*...

I have been running a Stage 2 turbo for a quiet a while now and Chipped Ireland and RS Tuning (Leeds) had asked me to spend the day at Paul's (RS Tuning) workshop as they wanted to try some new tuning techniques to get more power out of a Stage 2 Turbo dynamics setup. I was already running...

Fairly new to all this. Very new to Dervs. Wondered if there were any cheap and simple performance mods i can do. I.E better sound and pick up. Don't want to remap and buy a new clutch. Something like air filter and back box?:)

Hi all. Been a lurker here for a while in the past when I nearly bought an Ibiza. I come back seeking info on Leons as I am looking to purchase one possibly in the next half year. Basically I've been out of the car loop for a while and not really sure about all the models etc. I would like...

first of all i would like to say hi to every one as i am new to this sight. At the moment i have a pug 206 gti, but i am lookin to get a Mk1 Leon FR tdi 150 i have foud 1 with a local dealer and i have nerly done the deal. Im just wondering if any one could give me any info on these cars as...

Hope you guys can help Im relatively new to modding but the first thing i want to do to my '55 Leon 150 FR+ is replace the stock panel filter with a green aftermarket and smooth out the air box. Keep it looking stock but get a small step closer to remap in sept. After lots of searches I also...

can anyone tell me what to look for. i sen a couple with under 40K miles and on a 2004 plate any feedback is appreciated

ive got a leon fr 150 tdi and its the one with the cupra kit on.think people call it the fr+ or somethink.its got the cupra wheels on but the 17s. At the minute i have dunlop sp sport 01A tyres on.but they need changing soon and was wondering what to get next.or do i just get the same again as...

Hi, Just wondered if anyone else has had this problem: Sometimes whilst I'm driving around off turbo ~ 2,000rpm, I go to accelerate and the turbo cuts out. Always at the same point ~ 2100 rpm. The problem seems to be more apparent when I'm in sixth so I assume it's to do with the amount of...

does anyone own one? as far as i can see it has the 150 bhp pd tdi motor,tear drop shaped mirrors,leon cupra style seats.and that seems to be it.does it have anything else that would temp a potential buyer from buying it over a 110? the standard wheels look hideous so thats one thing against...

Hi guys, thought i would check this forum out for some seat owners advice. I am currently driving a mkV Golf R32 but the running costs are too much for what i want at present. I have been looking at the leon for a while and out of all the cars i looked at it ticks the most boxes. My R32 is...

I may well get told off here for not searching for my answer but believe me I've just spent the last evening reading about what I want to achieve, so much info to take in! Someone out there might have done what I want to do and know a simple straight answer for me..... If I want to take my...

Any 150PD boys taken there EGR valves off to replace it with a race pipe or Allards pipe upgrade? E.g. Got a EGR valve suplus on there garage floor? ;)

While browsing the site I see the recomended oil for pd engines is vw 505 01 .. problem is I have vw 505 00 in. (thats what i get for listening to the guy in the auto factors)[:@] . I only changed it 2 weeks ago, but the oil used on the previous change was the same... im just wondering am i...

Hi all. I've got a problem with my 2001 TDi 150. Its very low on power,almost like its a non-turbo. If you drive it hard it definately feels like it has no turbo but if you drive it at part throttle it feels as if it wants to go and if you get the throttle just right you get a little kick in...
