lack

hi recently purchased a leon cupra 2000 reg. quite a long drive home in it, lovely to drive but seemed to be lacking boost, it'd boost up to about 3500-4000rpm but would then almost stutter, i'd noticed that the pipe from the airbox to the secondary air pump had been capped of at some point when...

Hi. ive been driving my 1.2 12v for just over a year now with no problems unit now (just as the warrenty has ended). Recently my car has had the coil packs fail which i replaced, but now when i try to pull away from a junction the car takes a long time to respond and then is sluggish to...

I recently bought an 02 SDI Leon and am becoming frustrated by the lack of power! Is there anything I can do for a bit more? Or would fitting a turbo be a realistic option??

i'm sure this issue is well known but at night the interior fells too dark :censored: no ashtray light,no trunk light , glovebox = complete darkness has anyone found any solution to this problem? thanks

Hi guys, my cupra has a flat sopt between when the turbo kicks in at 2,500 rpm and 4,000 rpm. the turbo soppls up fine but apart from that there is not a lot of power before 4,000rpm. is this normal with these engine. thanks David

My 2.0 tdi (BKD engine) altea is running fine, average fuel consumption, but just isn't pulling as well as a friends standard 2.0 tdi (BKD engine) golf. Which are the appropriate measuring blocks to check for indicators of the cause(s) of poor performance?

Hi, I have a Cupra 1.8t with a AUQ 2003 and the problem is when you get to 3000rpm it hesitates almost like it has a soft cut off. If you back the power off the reapply the throttle it clears its worse from 3rd to 4th I have to quickly change to 5th and can carry on accelerating. It really...

Well... im not to sure what the problem may be but my dad said it could be valve problems but that could be wrong... basically at 70mph or over the car losses power also if you stop e.g. in the services it sounds like a diesel when you start it up again with a loudish ticking sort of noise...

Is it just me or is there a serious lack of aftermarket products for the mk2 leon?? The car has been around for a few year now and there isn't much you can do to make your car individual. Most mods I've seen are generally only marketed in germany or france. It just gets boring!! Anyone...

Lol Er, my hoon seems to have been a little "intermittant" since last year, and has now stopped working, only thing is, it works when i arm/disarm my alarm?? Are there two horns?? If not, would i be correct in presuming there is a dodgy connection behind the steering wheel? If this is the...

I heard from a relative last month that a new dealership was opening not far from where i work in oswestry, I filled out the online form on the seat website to be kept informed this was acknowledged by them. I find out from a work collegue that the garage has been open for a couple of weeks...

Evening people, thought i'd register on here and pick your brains over an issue i have with the Braking performance of my 3 month old Ibiza FR TDI. It basically feels like the brakes aren't biting enough... I'm not sure whether the ABS has something to do with this, but i get the impression it...

Sometimes when i give my car a little wely, i get a hesitation and then the car goes into (get me home). If i turn off the engine and restart it is ok then. Happend a few times now. Dont know what to do about it. Time to get shut for a petrol? Hmmmm Had a volvo S40 T4 befor this, i miss the...

Right, after fitting my shiney new Boost Gauge it appears that I'm maxing out @ 4psi. I've checked ALL of the pipe work, and can't find any leaks. I've read most of the threads about N75 valves, and wanted to ask the question...is it possible that the valve is up the swanny, and not...

on long journeys my boost suddenly dies off and only boosts to about 6psi but normally boosts to around 20psi but if i am just doin low speed journeys e.g just driving in a residential area its fine but the problem arises when doin faster drives, is it going into limp mode? searched but...

Been noticing recently that my lcr has been making really loud squelling noises like air rushing into the engine bay during acceleration, feels like the turbo isnt been fed properly, maybe the turbo/intercooler pipe is loose as she hasnt got the same kick as usual, that all fine but im not sure...

after reading threads about both the 225 and 210 endlessly on here i think i've come to the decision that the 210 is better value for money....agree? also, i cant actually find any 210's for sale on autotrader.....am i being blind/thick:shrug:? i know there a few differences between the 2 cars...

Who on the forum uses these products; CAR LACK 68 Systematic Care & or followed by either the CAR LACK 68 LONG LIFE SEALANT OR the P21s Wax. How easy are any of these products to apply onto Emocian Red! Any opinions welcome :clap:

I just got my Leon FR Tdi back today after having cracked the SUMP 9 days ago ! The Garage fixing it said that the way the SUMP is situated it actually is lower than the crossmember & the Front Spoiler ! I was trying to park in a Multi-Storey in a space where other Door Denters would not get...
