    FK8 Diskloks

    If they have the tech for that, a disklok isn't going to pose much of an obstuction, if you're concerned about that though keep your keys in a Faraday bag at night

    FK8 Diskloks

    Nearly all car thefts now are home invasion and taking the keys, I'd put money on your disklok key being on your car eyes so they will have what you need, I've never really seen the benefit of diskloks in this day and age, if they really want the car they will take it

    I know this will go against what most people want on here, but I'd love them to do a dsg version with the face-lift

    Yeah I'm aware of the areas that need attention as I owned a 135 some years back, I spec'd the LSD and it's booked in for motech for the usual upgrades once its delivered

    Agreed, I've infact cancelled my order, not just due to these reasons, but the 2nd time I drove one it didn't click with me again, gone and ordered a m140 instead

    The number is completely random, picked out of a box on the production line and which ever they pick out is fitted

    I'd be rejecting mine if it sounded like that, sounds awful, people are going over the top with this "track car" rubbish, it's a hot hatch for everyday use on the road and that's not an everyday use noise!

    FK8 Booooost!

    Of course there will be some gains to be made, no engine comes to the factory running max power, it wouldn't go well for the warranty/reliability

    Android auto or Apple car play are the most useful app, especially andriod auto for Google maps, as the poor excuse of a nav as standard is tragic

    Tyre pressure sensor and squealing brakes are a common thing unfortunately, as for the millage I'd say that's high, mine had 6 miles on it when I picked it up

    The number plaque is completely random, just a random one picked out the box at Swindon on the production line

    If you took that to Honda UK, they 100% would not refuse a warranty due to the exhaust, they may refuse it as they think it isn't a problem, takes me back to the old ep3 days when a guy fitted a cat back and took it to Honda due to his lacquer coming off his alloys, the dealer tried to tell him...

    What was the warranty claim?

    Unless you start changing the cat, then it could get complicated, but for a cat back you'd be fine

    It will only void the warranty on the exhaust, so can't see why it would be an issue

    That's one of the many positives of it having Android auto built in, plug your phone in and use Google maps

    Ian not sure if you said in another thread but what made you get rid of the RS? As that was on the list of next possible car, along with a 140 and leon cupra 300

    They really aren't a hard car to insure, for instance the ep3 is group 34 and the fk2 is group 33

    Engine will be fine do as you please with it, just take it steady on the brakes for a while so they don't make a racket! It's 2017 not 1990, engines are fine from day one now days

    I was under the impression alloygators couldn't be used due to the material make up of the wheel and they would react due to the magnesium? Could be wrong though

    Try having it in 2nd with all the traction control and stability etc left on, boot it and as the wheels slip at about 4/4.5k let off the gas
