Nice one Dave!

 

[DPJ]

Always a relief!!!!

My main problem seems to be calipers sticking. Piston on one side at the front, slide pins the other. I think I'm going to have to replace the calipers.....

Start a new trend Dave, Porka Calipers on Mk2's

...crossed my mind, it's not the calipers that are the problem, it's the 18" wheels that are needed to fit over them.....

Any kiwiCupra project is on the back burner for a quite a while, John. You never know, though....

I guess i'll just have to carry on fettling bits on mine then

hopefully be different again next time its seen out and about ...

KiwiCupra taking revenge for my destruction of my Leon?

I'm posting this from motorway slip road as the ibiza has just died on me. Filled up 5 minutes before and it didn't start first time. I can hear the fuel pump prime. I'm thinking coilpack?

 

[DPJ]

I have now mainly been recovered home with a dead Ibiza.

No warning whatsoever of a prob, other than failing to start once at the filling station. Yes, it was Shell Petrol......

boooo to dead kiwicupra...poor Kevin Kiwi throws strops when one of the others gets attention so maybe he just hadn't realised you were actually breaking Leon rather than giving him lurve and shiny bits!

hope Kevin gets better soon tell him he can have fun at the weekend, bribery is often the key

 

[DPJ]

Do AGGs and ABFs share the same coilpack? AGG = no listing on ECP.

 

[beezertart]

no idea Dave guess stu would be the man to ask seeing as he has both?

 

[beezertart]

you want me to check the part no's on mine i have spares in the garage i can check now for you?

Maybe I should have given him the Fabia wiper from the Loeon, rather than sticking it on the Bammer, Claire. On the other hand, he could be sulking from being called Kevin......

My sun ain't shining this week
