what have you done to your car today ?

[19jeff89]

full service, oil, air (green panel), fuel, pollen filters. plugs & 4 new coils. gearbox oil change and red dog bone bush

Fitted Goodridge Braid Brake hoses to the front and found they are not a direct fit (unless you have a file or Dremel handy to open up the brackets) why do these never fit, HEL are just the same also.

Also removed and refitted the sump for the second time to modify the splash guard to get my TSR Baffled sump insert to fit correctly (be aware that they tell me 1 in 20 of these inserts need modifications when fitting to the 1.8T engine!). Great piece of engineering but would be nice if fitted correctly.

A five hour hobby changing diesel filter/ air filter/ oil filter/ 5w40 Magnatec 4L oil change/ cabin filter and fitting a Pioneer DEH-x5800bt radio.

Much more powerful sound from radio and motor also

 

[Stuart09]

Changed maf sensor. Changed thermostat. Changed dump valve. And a coolant change. Busy awkward day.

Cleaned the EGR for the first time and it was half full. Now it's sparkling.

New air, pollen and fuel filters, ordered a socket for the oil filter cover so a job for the morning. Also found a wet passenger footwell so will probably end up getting some butyl tape to seal it.

Changed gearbox oil .....like driving a different car... smoother gear changes and a lot quieter. Good job done

 

[clag]

Today i did oil and filter and sealed the passenger side doors

Technically not today but last night took her (yes she's a she) for a drive and just couldn't get the power down, was getting wheel spin in the first 4 gears, bit too cold for my track tyres roll on warmer weather...

 

[borisvanhalen]

changed the camshaft sensor... was having problems starting, lights on the dash and a drop in power/response

vagcom came up with this - 16727 - Camshaft Position Sensor (G40)
P0343 - 35-00 - Signal too High

job only took 30mins, followed this guide on youtube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OanjgKfLk78

our engine bays seem to be a little tighter than on the golf, however it's still an easy job

seemed much better on the run home tonight, started first time (instead of 5th attempt), more responsive and no warning light... hopefully that's all my starting problems now sorted

Took the tow bar off. Never gonna use it so off it comes. took 30 mins from start to finish.

She passed the 2nd mot in a row without needing any work last week! Just one advisory for a split in a CV boot.

I'm going to replace the whole driveshaft and both joints, as it's a load of fiddly and messy work stripping and greasing the joints back up. Cost for the whole thing £60, cost for just the 2 CV boots £30!

For all the time, mess and hassle saved, the extra £30 is worth every penny IMO.

Fitted MK4 GTi Recaro seats, front ARB bushes and drop link.

Oil and filter change.

Even though the Leon is a 4 door, having 3 door seats is quite handy!
