reading

After getting my LCR i checked the engine after leaving it still for 4 hours and the oil level was non existant on the dip stick! So i poured in 2 litres of oil that i had to keep it around the medium level. After checking it 30 minutes after i added oil the level was just over half way. 4 weeks...

I have had revo stage 1 now for about a month or so am im loving it but i have just noticed that im gettin a funny boost reading when i go about 5k. When i put my foot down the boost kicks in and my boost gauge reads 18psi but as i get higher up the rev range the boost starts to tail off and by...

after fitting my boost gauge last nite very quickly i have noticed a strange reading which i know isnt correct, i have not yet actually wired the gauge in ie: earth, illumination and power but just have the boost pipe plumbed in, with engine off it reads -0.5 bar, when engine is started it reads...

Afternoon all, After I had my car re-mapped the average MPG rating went from about 33/34 to the early 20's. When I start her up at first it reads about 18/19 and climbs upto about 22 after 5-10 mins of driving. Is the similar to everyone else, or are they dodgy readings?

What is the correct G/S reading I should be getting from my MAF?

changed my outside temp sender today to cure the aircon problem (which it did) but the temperature still reads way too low :censored: how can this be cured?

Hi.... Does anyone know a decent independent garage near Reading who knows something about Cupras? My Curpa 2001 is due for its first service since I bought it and is still under warranty from the Seat dealer (SMC in Windsor). Wasn't overly impressed with the dealer and want someone to...

Has anyone got VAG-COM in the Reading or Maidenhead areas they could plug into my car please?

If I am correct I traceed a data somewhere that some engine controllers have engine power reading at measuring blocks. Is this true or not?

Need a pair of fronts, just the standard ones that come with the LCR new. Dealer quoted me £180 a corner and openly told me they where uncompetitive after a service this week. O.o I'm in Reading, Berks. Can anyone recommend somewhere that can supply and fit at a decent price without...

I need to know the most obvious part required and where i could find one to rectify my problem. My dashboard dail for engine temperature on my 1.6 Ibiza sport (mk3) is always on bottom 60C and every once in a blue moon rises to 90c before falling. I havnt heard my electric fans kick in for...

just wondering if anyone could tell me what maf g/s should be at idle i have just checked mine and it reads 2.9g/s and thought it might be a bit low

Now im sure i found a torque reading on my vag com somewhere (i think) but i really cant remember the measuring block it was in, and i really want to find this figure out again, i have looked through the sticky on measuring blocks, is it in 120? Sure someone will be able to tell me this...

I wasnt sure where to post this so apologies for sticking it in here.. I know we have a few members near and around Reading, Berkshire.. Was just wondering if anyone had vag com and would be willing to scan my car ? Id obviously come to yours etc and would definately owe you a few pints ;)...

I did a search, but didn't find anything about this... I "finally" got an outside temperature of 2ºC this morning here in Portugal... I know you probably have it for a few days now... and as soon as I started the car the board computer told me that... instead of the regular time - that's...

Is not a place I would recommend taking your car. Mis-diagnosing problems, obsurdly expensive, poor customer service, and unhelpful tips. Now have started to take me Toledo to Newbury Seat in Newbury (obviously!!) and am much much happier with the service. Helpful over the phone when I had a...

went along to a honda on track (HOT) track day yesterday, was good fun and found a few things out. Mainly the rumor that the ibiza in standard set up up dosnt handle well, is complete rubbish. Take into account there were several DC5 integras, DC2 integras, New civic R's and one race...
