Does any know an easy way to stiffen the rear suspension, im running rota grids 8j 0et on the rear and they scrub on my arch quite abit.
I've rolled and flared my aches and have added camber shims and still rub like a lovely person going around corners
Has any use spring assisters before and would having bump stops in help ?

Give your local Seat dealer garage a call they should get you a brand new one
-
You can do it yourself but it will be a bugger do get it prefect, as I found out the hard way on my polo
I used a old bumper which cut up and plastic welded it in the reg gap then smoothed over it with filler in thin coats
My advice would be buy a cheap one of ebay and get a local body shop to do it (if your not up for a challenge)
Hope this helps abit

Do your wheels need radius or tapered bolts?
And mine where about 23mm long (thread length)

Yeah it's bit pricey I know, just wondering if anyone has used them
-

I'm also invested in having a look at what you do

Hi, I fitted the same exhaust to my 1.0 it Fits great as there is no box to get in the way, mounts are spot on and it sounds great!
Tempted to do something like this as well could you post a photo ?
-
That could work mate. Still will have to make them fit though. i.e. roll arches etc.
Rolling arches isn't a massive problem when you have the proper tool

I just recently dismantled mine in my arosa
Speedo:
One screw under the cover, ones that's out pull the cover towards you and it should come off.
Then there's a couple of screw which are holding the plastic around the speedo.
Then there should just be about two-ish screw holding the speedo in lift the speedo up and it should come free, there's two connecters on the back of the cluster which you can disconnect.
Air vents:
On the drivers side vent you will need to push the light switch in and to the right and it should pop out, then there is a screw holding the vent in.
Under the dial should be a little cover which has a hidden screw under it, the you can pull the vent out.
The passenger side I'm not too sure on how to remove but I'm guessing give it a pull and see if it moves or pry at it with a flat head screw driver.
Centre console:
Remove your head unit (and the lower din if you have it) there will be two screws in the front lower corners and one at the back, and unplug the hazard button.
The panel at the top of the centre console in-between the window blowers vent and the centre vents can be preyed off and 4 screws will be hold the top of the centre console.
Then just pull carefully from the bottom and the pop out
Hope this helps

Yeah im running coilovers atm and planing of going lower soon, I might just get staggered and go 8J rear 7J frontsAre you low? No way you'll be able to tuck 8j's without having rolling the arches and adding some camber at the least! Might just get away with 7j's with ET20, but you'll still have to roll the arches. -
Have you tried using a multi meter ?
-
No I haven't had a look what should i look for ?
I had another go at it today and i think its a bad wire from the battery because i got it working then about a hour later didn't
, i moved the wire around abit and it worked after so im think of just replacing the wire and see what happens. -
True

-

Been having problems with my starter motor and have had to be driving around with a hammer in the back
,I've replaced the starter motor this morning and it worked fine but when I needed to get to work later on it wasn't even trying to turn. just making the same click as it was before I swap it -

My insurance is due soon and was thinking of getting a bigger engine arosa/lupo, been looking around for a 1.4 sport arosa and not very happy with what I'm seeing. I had the thought of swaping my engine for the 1.4L sport so I could keep my car (Manly because the body has no dent or scratches) but have a bigger engine in it. Anyone know what I need to do this ? like engine, gearbox, loom, ecu...

I was driving back from college the other day and I was the lights and when i went to drive off i hurt a horrible clunk sound from the engine, the sound stopped but another whining noise started and when ever i was in gear with both feet of the pedals them whiling noise came back.
I have a video of the noise so if anyone could have a listen and tell me if they have had this problem before and if so how did you fix it?
