Hey Can Anyone Help, Ive Been Driving A Vts For 6 Months And Just Bought A Leon Cupra, Should It Feel Really Quick Cos It Really Dont, It Seems To Rev And Not Go Anyway But I Can Hear The Turbo Soinning Up, Do U Think There Could Be An Air Leak? Anyone Else Have These Problems With X Plate 2001 Cupra

 

[nick-barnes07]

it should feel a hell of a lot quicker than a saxo , might be the air flow meter as these are common for going

Are They Expensive
What Are The Signs Of One Of Those Going

 

[nick-barnes07]

they are about £60 quid , get it plugged into a diagnostic, the sign is the car holding back i think , havent had one go on mine , but i know there common for going

 

[watto83]

You Any Idea How Much It Is To Get It Plugged In, Should I Take It To Seat

 

[nick-barnes07]

its about £50 at seat , just take it to ur local garage , would be best to go to a vag specialist , ur local garage might plug it in for nothing .

could be anything mate , what miles has it done

 

[dan__smith]

A cupra is miles better than a paxo! Check the hoses for splits, this will cause boost leak and lack of power, MAF as already mentioned or N75.

Does It Sound Like A Common Fault, Other Than That The Car Is Very Smooth And Runs Ok

Hang on. Isn't the Cupra from 2001 150hp or 180hp?
I can't remember, but if it's a 150hp, I can't see it being a huge difference to your Saxo.
