Brake upgrade - 288 to 312

Followers

13 August, 201114 yr

Just been looking into the 312mm brake upgrade from the 288mm.

The carriers are Â£202 with the discs at Â£39 each, so my question is the 312mm upgrade worth Â£280?

Or would just the uprated pads alone on 288mm be a good improvement...

Thanks,

Scott

Don't buy carriers at that price, you will get a second hand set probably with calipers and discs on this site or on other VW/Audi/Seat sites. Members often will upgrade from 312mm to 345mm. Do you need bigger breaks, what engine have you got ??

How to raise stuck electric window

Daisy · Tuesday at 21:351 day

Hi, Our driver side window made a growly noise then wound itself all the way down, and is now stuck. We have removed the door panel and can't even lift the glass manually from the bottom. It will not move. I think we need to replace the window regulator, but it seems that we need the glass half up to remove it. (Need to line up the rubber bung with a slot in the regulator?) I just want the window shut for when this heatwave breaks and the rain returns. Then we can order and fit new parts later.

Block of foam in the wing .. soundproofing?

Block of foam in the wing .. soundproofing?

hubrad · 53 minutes ago53 min

Hi all, while dismantling all the covers yesterday for access to apply Lanoguard, I found this block of foam rubber tucked in behind the wing on the UK passenger side. No sign of such a thing on the driver's side, and it's so firmly held up at the top that I guess you'd have to remove the wing panel to get it fully out.. always a possibility with an 11 yrs old car. Seems like some kind of noise reducing thingy? Anyhoo I sprayed behind it and pushed it back into place before reinstalling the whee

I have a couple of hatchback accessories to give away

Tankdave · 12 June12 Jun

One is the reversable boot floor, carpet one side and a sort of plastic the other. Both items are in great condition too Second is a rear sun screen, it's a mesh material in a metal frame that you clip inside the hatch window, it keeps out a ton of heat and you can take it out for winter, you can't see into the car also. My 280 had tinted side windows but the rear glass was not done. Both are huge and would be prohibitively awkward to post. If you want either you WILL need to come to Swindon.

CAN Network Gateway Question.

Dave_Simmo · 14 hours ago14 hr

2022 Skoda Octavia 1.5tsi estate. Following a battery issue, I now have 10 CAN Network Gateway faults, all related to low voltage. The battery has been replaced with a new one but I need to register the new one with the car. I have a Carista EVO reader but it won’t reset the fault codes. Reads them fine but won’t reset them. (I’ve subscribed for a month so that part is fine.) I checked the battery voltage and it was 14.1v so I took the car for a 30 minute drive to see if the car’s computer/sens
