woes

Right ... I've managed to somehow destroy my CAT as I've filled up the rear tailbox with bits of burnt honeycomb which was rattling inside the tailbox :lol: ... so we removed the rear tailbox and welded a new stainless section from the CAT to the exit (tailpipe) ... It sounds great and...

After fitting a 100cel cat I had error codes about o2 sensor malfunction and internal resistance too high. Assuming I had damaged it when removing from my old cat i replaced it, this time leaving the sensor out of the exhaust flow but in a water proof bag. Now I still have the light on my dash...

Friend of a friend has just been charged £5000 for a new DSG gearbox in his 3.2 TT! :wtf: Car has covered 60K miles so Audi are knocking 25% off for him as a goodwill gesture....bargain (NOT!). :cry: Something for the 'DSG fanbois' to bear in mind....;)

Basically my magnex back box is annoying me now. The box is so big that im constantly having to get it realigned to stop it knocking but within a few months its back to knocking as the rubber bushes keep breaking. So im thinking of changing to something abit smaller and less loud. What are...

Hi Guys, Just after a bit of advice and support really here... Took the car in to SEAT a couple of weeks back with a list of slightly concerning, although not nasty, issues to look into. This being, in no particular order: Coolant loss. Whirring inside cabin, kind of in time with...

Hi All, having had the usual air-con compressor failurelast year, I bought a new one, whixh was installed a month or so ago. Not long after, notice that sometimes there wasn't any cold air coming out of the vents and the engine started to "hunt". Went back to the garage and they diagnosed that...

Hey folks! What can I say, not been a good day in terms of audio! I had fitted yesterday; FLI 900s 4 Channel Amp / Fusion 6.5" Components Vibe QB69's / Fli wiring kit etc. The amp has high level inputs, so thats what is being used. Got in the car, could hear a high pitched...

Right I've been tearing my hair out for a long long time now over this and would welcome some advice... I have a Leon Cupra (early model so APP and K03) and went for a Stage 1 remap. Once it was applied to the car, I immediately thought that bottom end torque had increased as it felt a lot...

Hi. My apologies for a first post being a begging letter! My daughter has a late '96 Cordoba 1.4. She took it for an MOT on Friday - which it passed. Got nearly home and the gearbox stared making a loud noise (sounded dry). It's mainly on the overrun. Rang a mate of mine who put some...

I tried changing the Water Temp' sender this evening as I’ve been having the erratic temp gauge syndrome. I currently have the old black type. Straight forward enough job to change. However when I received the new green type there was no 'O-ring'. I thought I would just use it from the old...

I've had this suggested to me as a possible remedy for the Bluetooth phonebook problems with Symbian S60 phones, can someone with an N95 or similar have a go and see if it works with the Leon MFD? What you need to apparently do is to transfer all the contacts to the car by using the following...

Hi all, Changed plugs and HT leads the other day, and in order to get to plugs 3 and 4 I had to unbolt the air filter and push it aside (95 1.4 CLS engine code ABD). Any how I unclipeed the cover, and there was NO filter in it!!! Is this likely to have caused any damage? I have no Idea how...
