Can see the Lupos charm has rubbed off on you lol

Yeah pretty cheap and easy to solve issues I've found and this site seems to have a how to guide for everything you could ever need so your in good hands ha

Good first car choice

Sounds cool mate i look forward to seeing it

Just driven mine to Blackpool, from Dundee and back and wasn't driving too carefully had a quarter of a tank left both ways very surprised and pleased with that cheaper than my last diesel

This is really helpful for me, this thread should be moved somewhere more visible

Breaker yard and similar sites, it contacts breakers up and down the country and theyll send quotes to you if they have it and you pick the cheapest one. I got a window regulator and motor for £30 down from over £100

Can someone move this thread sorry put it in wrong place think I'm tired

The problems just happened recently, I unlock the car but passenger side is still locked, and it won't open with either handle, the door will open if I pull the little hook with my hand though, the door will normally work fine with the upper door card off but I'm fed up of looking at it without it, probably something quite simple

Update I got a new regulator and motor from a breaker which was tested working and it won't work in my lupo, so now I think I have two fully working regulators and motors, so I think i have a problem in the electronics I done a VAGCOM scan which I linked on the post and didn't find nothing related to it. Dunno how to proceed https://plus.google.com/111790000470717685819/posts/WAgJQBbictc

I just seen an old thread with the black and blue seats, same as mine on a jazz blue lupo they said it was a colour concept car and very rare? Is this true I thought they were just donated from a golf or something similar https://plus.google.com/111790000470717685819/posts/JUmegWPgFnC

you need to modify the car to have 15s like that Dblock? I'd like to have mine like that

I had a new polo for a short while and it had a plastic and boring interior put me off, if this is a cheaper car than that was, then I'd expect not much better

Ok thanks Skezza that makes sense will bear it in mind if have the problems again, hopefully lights stay gone, gonna get it scanned anyways

The battery was unplugged all day yesterday and when I connected it again that's when the lights appeared so unsure about that one guys, and the brake lights are working ok, I haven't driven it today but I started it up this morning and the lights where both gone but im waiting to drive it. not at home the now, to make sure

That's a nice car, so clean very nice

Does that reset the ECU or something ?

Thanks I'll sort out a scan Edit just seen your post Rob, I'm in Dundee so not to far dunno if I wanna drive it far at the moment don't trust it with these lights

Well the engine management light has gone off (EPC), but now its been replaced with the exhaust emissions check light, my pal thinks its just confused since the battery was flat and removed and needs to be reset somehow hmm but I dunno

So last night left the interior light on and woke up to a flat battery, been charging all day in shed, reconnected it and this warning light is now on, how do I get rid of it does it just mean the battery's low? Thanks guys

I put Volkswagen window winder handle into eBay it came up with loads and some are originals

Reminds me of the medal of Honor starting quote "And when he gets to heaven, to Saint Peter he will tell One more soldier reporting, sir, Ive served my time in hell""

Nice car i like the arosas mean look

That's very kind mate, its alright I got some now though thanks

Did a bit of googling the links are not for lupos put can't be too different I would think "The lever at the top of the seat allows the seat to tilt; that is all the top leaver does. The reason the seat slides is because the cable at the bottom of the seat is pulled and lifts the seat locking system. The cable is attached to the locking system at one end and the rear end of the cable is attached to the bottom of the seat back. Therefore when the seat angles forward it pulls the locking track pin up out of the track. The whole force of this cable is held by a plastic clip. Not unsurprisingly this plastic clip fails. That is why tilting the seat does not allow the seat to slide. http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/154853-fabia-vrs-seat-cover-removal/ http://forums.clublupo.co.uk/index.php?/topic/96924-lupo-driver-seat-tilt-release-failed/ http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?PHPSESSID=f4js97n73tbm35tqih4t4ff4u7&topic=37400.0
