where did you get your pump from bud if i do decide to change it im not paying silly money from seat and do you have part numbers as ive heard you can mix and match off of skodas and audi and so on.

right ok im getting mine bleed today via vag com this is some thing i have not done yet so ill let you know tonight ..

 

[SEATCOOBER]

any news???

 

[karls cupra]

right ok took it there this morning and got it back now they said they bleed it and pushed all pistons back in and took driveshafts out and done the full works but they reacon its the front drive side slide pin causing it to stick and not release.. so i came home and fitted the oe slide pins on that side and need to take it out for a drive , i did change all 4 front slide pins 6months ago cause of a seized one .. ill let you know about 8.30pm if slide pin fixed it ..

 

[karls cupra]

back now and still no better its biting right down now not too far from the floor.. i am running out of idea now

 

[karls cupra]

right car going back to garage monday they say there must still be air in the system some where ..

 

[karls cupra]

right still no better and its been in the garage again today now im gettin really p****d off now ...
all they keey sayin is my front caliper carrier is worn causing the pedal to be spongey

 

[karls cupra]

i put a slighlty larger slide pin in the carrier and it has cured the problem there is loads of play with the standard pins a few mm to small and worn so the garage was right .. now i need to get some larger slide pins to fully fix the problem or new carriers and pins both sides..
