Lc metal undertray

[dougieboy]

Do seat make and sell a metale under tray for the lc as my car is low and im on my 3rd sump due to bad roads in my area

 

[Mike R]

Have you thought about engine spacers to go under your mounts?.. thats what i have done and now my sump isnt the lowest part of the car.. much cheaper option and good if your running real low as it brings everythin back level

 

[dougieboy]

That would b better idea cheerz is there anywhere i can buy them

i have an alloy one that i purchased but will probably not get around to putting on the car as i'm gonna be selling it very soon.

 

[dougieboy]

You hav an alloy sump do u mean

 

[SalSheikh]

no, i have an alloy sump guard that i purchased from a fella that made these and he has now migrated down south so no more available.

 

[akchappers]

Why you selling sal? Getting another?
Ak

 

[SalSheikh]

thinking about going diesel, possibly a mk5 golf/mk2 leon. A3's are overpriced in my opinion but keeping my options open. maybe even a 320d but i do prefer hatchbacks.

??? how much do these raise engine by? looks like about 1mm or is the photo not showing it well?
please dont tell be the engine is supported by these.

 

[bendohhh]

They're thicker than 1mm fella.

 

[SalSheikh]

i think they are approx 15mm think and raises the engine so it sits higher. seen these on a few forums.

 

[Mike R]

There 20mm i think maybe 15.. but it naturaly raises your sump a little more than that.. they go under your existing mounts and you use longer bolts, and yes they are perfectly safe before the keyboard warriors give out a health and safety warning

 

[M20FES]

Wouldn't this be a good idea on diesel models then, as the sums on them are very low ?

 

[LEE69]

How can it raise it more than 15mm if the spacer are 15mm?

 

[andycupra]

must be the photo not showing the thickness.

Does this mean the engine 'tilts' backwards a little?

 

[Mike R]

Because it brings the engine back at a tilt slightly.. therefors giving you that little bit more than the thickness of the spacer..

Yeh thats a crap photo, and yes it tilts back very slightly
