A 2mm what?

I think It may be to do with the Length of the car it is 4.02M long ????? ( to do with WRC rules, and entering cars into the WRC )

They are based on the same platform. Much like the MK4 Golf and the Octavia, but they arent the same length.

The wheel base is the same though, isn't it? It's just the front and rear overhangs which are bigger on the Octy? :confused:

The Octavia only has bigger overhangs to accomodate suitcases on airport jobs...

Looking for EA888.4+DQ381 Tune Feedback

TagEldinAhmed · 21 hours ago21 hr

Hello all, I'm looking for some feedback from those of you who have their EA888.4 ECU and DQ381 TCU tuned. Ideally, from those with the 245 version, although I'll still happily hear out those with similar EA888.3 245/280 models. I'm currently in between two possible solutions: a comprehensive RacingLine OEM+ Stage 1 ECU/TCU tune, versus a combinations of Revo Stage 1 (ECU) and TVS Stage 2+ (TCU). In both scenarios, I'll be aiming for a 95RON, low-torque file, since I'm not only limited by the

Full Matrix Led headlights on motorway

Rafal78 · 23 January, 20242 yr

Ok, Matrix Leds are fantastic. When driving on A or B class roads they working perfect, illuminates both sides of the road and cuts out cars at the front or oncoming traffic. I've never been flashed. When I tried to use them on motorway it's a different story. Right headlamp is illuminating as expected but left one doesn't illuminate side of the road but only gives a lot of light far at the front of the car.. I recently followed Audi Q7 with matrix leds and his headlights gave massiv

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.
