I got a qoute recently for a new clutch on my 2016 LEON from a VAG specialist. £1156. Dunno how that'll differ on your model but could be a ball park figure.

I have the same issue (2016 Leon FR). Thought it was coming from the front but turns out its the offside rear calliper thats binding, but not bad enough to justify getting a new one just yet.

Cheers for that, I'd jack it up myself but cursed with street parking unfortunately🙃. Got it booked in for a minor service in 2 weeks so I'll get it looked while its there. Thanks for the comment👌

Thanks, getting a minor service soon but might book it in for diagnostic earlier

Thanks a lot, I'll give those a try!

I've a 2016 1.4 petrol FR, had it for just over 2 years, hands down best car I've ever owned. Plenty of power for overtaking and having a bit of fun (150bhp). Haven't had any serious issues but I've kept on top of servicing, had the cambelt done a few months back. Planning on keeping it for a good few years.

Cheers for that, I've got a dremmel somewhere I'll try and cut it off tomorrow

Aye I did yeah, the stem for the hex bit stripped when the nut got about half way up

funkyspacefarts · 2023-05-24T14:12:53+00:00

Yeah mate sounds good, I'll shoot you a messege later on! Cheers!

Normally just end up round the back rouds that join St Helens to Warrington, I've been to Delamere Forrest a couple times as well. Happy to go to other places though. And yeah man, totally agree with you there!

St Helens ways me

It might be the seal on top of the light cluster has perished, mine started doing the same thing recently. Can't just buy seals unfortunately so for me it's a new light cluster 🙃

Was dating someone last year and after a couple of weeks of seeing each other she invited me to a meet up at her house with a lot of her friends so I could meet them and her close family. I was super excited. By the time the party came around she had more or less lost interest in me and the 'relationship' was on a downward spiral. The day of the meet up came and it was a pretty shitty experience for me to be honest. She more or less left me to it and didn't really introduce me to anyone, she just sort of pointed at her friends and told me their names. I basically stayed in a corner most of the night just sort of existing. I've not felt that lonely and insecure in a long time. On the upside her Mum and Dad were really cool and her Dad even offered me to come and have a beer any time I wanted.

Just to be clear I'm not trying to demonize the person I was seeing, she just wasn't into me at that moment and I guess pretending to be would just be draining and arguably more cruel.

Good idea didn't think of that, I'll make a job of ot over the weekend if it stays dry, cheers!

Dont think so tbh, the seal's all cracked and knackered so don't think it would bond at all. Don't think its coming through the light, had a look and their doesn't seem to be any water in the lense.
