  1. Cupra Ken

    I'll try and keep it short. i replaced my n75 valve last week due to fluctuating boost and it seemed to sought it out a treat my mate put it on a wideband and seemed to be fueling great too. it was ok for about a week but for the last few days its taking alot longer to start sounding a bit...
  2. Rev Limiter Broken!

    Hi, This is for my mates Seat Ibiza 1.2 (3 cylinder) Basically if the revs went over 5k (just before redline) the orange engine light would come on immediately and it would be running on 2 cyclinders. Vag-com reported ignition problem on cylinder 3 so fitted new coil packs and...

    Rev limiter

    Is it possible to get my revs limited on my 1.4 Leon as I can't help but thrash it to go anywhere and I know one day it's just going to say no thanks and go pop. Ideally want to limit it to 4500rpm which will save it a bit. If not I'll have to put a block of wood under the go pedal ;)

  7. Cruise/Speed Limiter

    Can the Seat Cruise Control also act as a speed limiter? I've just been driving my Dads SLK which has this feature ie you set it at 80mph, and then it won't let you exceed that speed, even if you floor it..I thought it was a really good feature especially through roadworks and to stop you...

  11. Rev limiter?

    Hi, I test drove an FR TDI at Frosts (Shoreham) a while back and one of the things the sales guy mentioned was that the leons come over with a some kind of limiter programmed as standard (revs i guess) and they remove this as part of the PDI. Does this sound right to you? Thanks, Craig

    Rev limiter?

    The only thing I have wrong with this car is the lack of a rev limiter, the noise of the engine even at 4500rpm is a gentle purr, and keeps asking for more!! Im worried that I may over rev and blow something. Has anyone fitted a limiter?
