Bit worried about this what can it be? Car seems to have loss of power from 3rd onwards. Like it's not letting all the power through. Does not seem to be the dpf as the light has nit come on.
Is it safe to drive with this as I need to get home?
Hi,
I'm having a problem with my Mk1 Leon TDi. On saturday was driving along and the engine completely dies. I was able to restart the car and continue but it did this a couple more times (sometimes I was able to restart it straight away, sometimes i had to wait a few mins first).
Called...

Hi guys i own a 02 cupra 1.8 20vt, and the above mentioned light has come on.. my owners book says it means excessive emissions.
Could this cause damage to the engine? is it safe to drive -- as its still driving perfect.

Just got my LCR in February, it got a service and MOT at the dealer I bought it from before I took delivery of the car. For the past 2 or 3 weeks I've noticed that the word "service" flashes constantly on the mileage display on the speedo when the...

Hi, done a bit of research and had a few conversations with mechanic mates etc but cant decide whether or not I should use an engine flush when servicing my LCR, the reason for not using a flush was because it may strip the engine of various essentials that need to be in there
opinions please!!!
Right - more of a nightmare. I'm REALLY pissed off to be honest after just speaking to the mechanic. I've got rid of my glow plug problems, it was just the plugs.
The only problem I've noticed, apart from the lights on my dash & the error log, is that my car is taking MUCH longer to start than...
might be worth checking your engine cover to see these problems don't apply to your car - Cupra badge on right of cover is separate piece of plastic and is stuck to the cover with just a few small strips of doublesided tape, took almost no effort to remove from my cover, would make a mess of...

Not sure if this has been asked and answered before.. but couldn't find any info on it so please excuse me if im just repeating previous posts ;)
