AndrewJB's daily MK1 Leon FR+ TDI

Car had a "decent" service history but checked the pollen filter and fuel filter the other day and they looked disgusting so time to take them all out!
Usually I go to TPS and get all the parts (just like my MK2's and MK3) but my local TPS is refusing to deal with customers again at the moment, so 60% off code was used at GSF.

Pollen filter lovely and clean
Oil filter
Air filter not super bad but out it comes anyway
old fuel fiter, forgot to take photo of new clean one
Used an unopened bottle of Quantum (from TPS) 5litre oil I had left over from when turbo blew on my old MK2 Golf TDI.

Unfortuantely the SEAT OEM FR+ badges are discontinued so had to go for aftermarket eBay ones!
More toys
They defo set off the interior, got mine about 6months after getting the car

So my exhaust started rattling/banging yesterday, Inspected it today and the old owner has bodged it, the exhaust hanger has snapped so they have welded a jubilee clip to it, that has now snapped off and also the exhaust rubber has snapped.
I have ordered the new rubber (it also comes with a clamp) for £7 now on the search for a decent FR or Cupra R backbox (eventually going to straight through it anyway)
4x new jacking point covers, have attempted to spray them myself, don't look too bad but ain't 100% happy with them.
Hopefully picking up 4x LCR black wheels tomorrow.
