Before I go ahead and buy one, do you know if the PDC brackets are transferrable or will I need new ones? Unsure how they currently fit on and assuming adhesive of some sort

How did you find one for £400? The most expensive ones I could find were £200ish and even those had some minor damage. (No I don't have a price filter or anything on ) I guess scrapes I could deal with since it's being repainted anyway but still...

Sorry for the delayed response, life got in the way followed by covid (always fun) Thanks for all the info though guys, really helpful. I've got the L&K, so that's got the washer jets, parking sensors and park assist sensors. All the sensors etc are still there and working as its just the bottom of the bumper that's been ripped off. Will still be a pain to actually find a bumper in decent condition and then get it painted. Local bodyshop said they can paint for £250 (not sure if that's about average or if that's too much). Or, they can source the part directly, paint and fit but would be looking at £650-700ish. Since it's a newer model there tends to be less breaking or in scrapyards (I've not seen any near me at least) which adds to the pain. Anyway, thanks again though I'll get searching

Hi all, Does anyone know the part number for the front bumper? Mine is a 2016 L&K so it'll have the parking sensors and washer jet holes. I've seen some on ebay that are similar but with damage to them so want to compare price to a new one. Either way I plan on having it sprayed etc since bodyshop quoted around £650 for the repair. Back story is I hit an unavoidable bit of debris on the motorway which took off part of the driver side bumper at the bottom...Luckily that part of the bumper is empty (washer bottle etc is other side) and it's just cosmetic.

Ahoy, been stalking this forums for a while now so thought I'd make an account and ask since I can't really find exactly what I'm looking for I've had the car mapped from 190 to 218 bhp, and 400nm to 489nm torque (verified with a dyno) with a DSG tune alongside it. I'm happy with the power itself, however the gearbox does seem to change down less smooth as before. (I've had the DSG serviced very recently too). I've been living with it for a few weeks now and I believe my fuel economy has gone down (I was under the impression remaps usually make it go up/stay the same). For example, I did a long motorway journey and averaged 50 mpg, when I used to average mid 50s. Not sure if this is a result of the cold weather, or a combination of a bad map and tune (I did the map at a local company that appeared to have good reviews). As for my driving style, I tend to drive with a lighter right foot, typically part throttle and use the power when I need it such as a motorway slip road. Would appreciate if anyone could maybe shed some light on some of these things, as I'm considering getting the map reverted
