Yeah they are cr*p avoid at any cost. They now have charge back initiated by my bank.... their approach to solving problems is ridiculous. Yes H&R front and rear 💪🏻

That's what i thought...Autodoc is trying to say they sent correct kit but each spring might differ in part numbers ( obviously) and are now doing anything to avoid refund...

Can someone please shine some light on this ? Time came for the Eibach springs to get fitted last week only to find out that the rear springs don't fit at all. They are hitting rear droplinks without any weight put on them. Yes i know the springs are for estate and my car is saloon but they don't fit. Unless my mechanic doesn't know how to fit them I'm really lost. Pictures attached below

Yeah that's them...they are mainly for golf. I had them on car for 2.5 years, no issues until now. Just last week i started finding things that failed prematurely because of these arms. They are inch shorter on each side compared to Superb ones. My whiteline droplinks -split, ball joints -split. Got genuine ones fitted today and tomorrow it's going for wheel alignment, next week new droplinks getting fitted (Whiteline) again. I believe you can get Audi TTS bottom arms which are aluminium but I'm done with d*cking around. You can fit them and they work but they will make everything else wear lit quicker. They will also reduce your track width by an inch on each side

Totally common thing on standard cars. It's a general wear&tear as mentioned by Evolution13

Very true about being nicer but for me it's more of a practical mod, car is getting lowered next month not much but where i live there is awful lot of speed bumps

Yes same signs as mine

Literally get the car up whether ramp or jack get underneath and grab propshaft near the coupling and try to move it side to side or up and down. It can also be checked visually for signs of perishing. My car has 52k miles so around 80k km?

Yeah I'd never thought about it myself but been getting vibrations in lower speeds and it turns out to be this.... getting the part ordered and will replace soon as possible

For all the Skodians with 4 wheel drive cars, get your propshaft coupling aka doughnuts checked. My car went for quick oil change on Saturday and my mechanic mentioned that the rubber around the coupling is well perished and has a bit of play in it. Apparently common thing on Haldex equipped cars and if left for too long it can cause damage to rear diff... Skoda genuine part is not exactly cheap at £600 but there are cheaper alternatives

Had new ECS tuning steel oil pan and Racing Line oil filter housing installed and new oil put in 💪🏻

Great thank you 👍🏻

Very nice 👍🏻 i like it a lot 😊 would you be kind enough to share link to it?

Yesterday i took out air filter and omg was it filthy 👀 last time I've cleaned it was in April this year before going stage 2. Got Ramair filter cleaning kit so gave it a good wash and rinse and left it to dry for 24 hours. Today i oiled it with oil supplied in cleaning kit and fitted it back💪🏻

That looks very smart 😍 i love those carbon fibre 💪🏻 where did you get the inlet manifold cover and battery cover from please? My engine bay looks bare compared to yours 😣

Oh tell me about it 😣 maybe little by little I get them all replaced but yeah they surely aren't cheap 😭

I better not, need to get used to all that brutal power increase before going for more 😂

Between 5-10 😂

Racing Line dipstick arrived today and replaced the old ****ty one 😎 oil cooler housing next💪🏻

Yes correct, my bad, what i meant was that that front intake duct is unblocked using the ECS tuning intake duct. https://www.ecstuning.com/b-ecs-parts/mqb-gen3-rotomolded-abs-dual-air-inlet-duct/046835la01kt/ Not the actual bit underneath you refer to.

Those are some nice figures too. Sorry I'm bit confused...are you stage 1+ or stage 2 yet? I'm thinking to go stage 3 maybe next year but i know it will not stay there...my dream build would be either fully forged engine or engine swap from RS3 😎 but that's lot of money. Maybe Powermax or Littco turbo upgrade with uprated LPFP and HPFP but time will tell. Dongle that Kalam sells fo £66 and Simos tool app will tell you horse power and torque during pulls which eliminates the need of a dyno runs. Kalam has explained to me that dyno figures can be misleading and not always accurate due to few factors....car being strapped too much or not enough, not calibrated dyno etc I have just noticed that yours is L&K which makes it even more or a sleeper 😁 Not sure if your engine has different torque limits than mine. Is yours DQ381? Mine says 600nm for stock internals but has been pushed to more. Not sure if you seen RE Performance Skoda Superb sleeper they done to 477hp with stock internals. Regarding induction kit i decided to keep standard airbox in but used Ramair panel filter. ECS tuning intake duct took care of that dreaded blocked intake and was only under £200 from Awesome GTI and still looks fairly OEM. I like what you've done to your car, very Q status i have to say, bet it surprises few unsuspecting wannabe racers 😁

Thank you, it does sound better in person 😎 What is your current set up? Sometimes it's all about the feel and smiles per gallon 😁 numbers are irrelevant but it's nice to know 💪🏻☺️

Thank you sir 😊 It is now fully functional beast at last🤓

Hello mate, downpipe is BCS Powervalve with 200cell high flow cat Cat back system is custom made by German company called Friedrich Motorsport back in 2021 and it's fully valved just like the standard OEM system. Pops are activated by driving mode

Cheers bro 🙏🏻 yes definitely knows his stuff and very very informative he will tell you what he did and what and how he wants you to do next thing. Real credit to car scene. Also got my pops and burbles detuned slightly so they are bit more civilised 😁 VID-20260715-WA0007.mp4
