Hi. I was just wondering. I’ve got a Lupo currently in a project state I’ve recently put back on the road after a year in storage. I wanted to know what’s it’s like to retrofit stuff to it?? Add a few convenience features, heated seats, heated mirrors. Maybe a few other bits I’ve not thought of. What have you guys managed to do with your cars and how bad were they to do?? I’m open to any suggestions, tips/tricks. Just want to see what I can do with it really. Vehicle deets: EC. AUA 2001 1.4 16v Fantasy Green. Almost done 140k Set up is basic, almost factory standard. Has a Parrot Bluetooth system and new gloss black alloys.

Hi thanks for replying. I replaced the coolant temp sensor about a year ago when I first got the car as the temp gauge didn’t work. I have got a slight exhaust leak around one of the clamps on the secondary cat, but it’s very minor, I’ve tried taking the clamp as tight as I dare and makes no difference. With the brake servo, would that be the vacuum lines or the servo itself?? Or both?? I’ll have to check the charcoal canister but I have replaced the little solenoid on that line. I believe it just has a Crank sensor.

Hi there. Just wanted some advise on what to do about my 2001 Lupo, 1.4 16v 75bhp. I’m having trouble getting the EML off. Got a code for P1174, Bank 1, fuel measuring system, Injection Timing Deviation. I’ve replaced the fuel pump, fuel filter and the injectors. I’d already replaced one of the O2 sensors already, long before this started. I’ve also replaced the secondary CAT as it was already falling apart. Not sure what else I can replace apart from the Charcoal canister, the crankshaft sensor and camshaft sensor. Many thanks Micheal
