Hey everyone!

The car community on Lemmy isn’t the most active and I thought it would be nice to list the cars of its members.

Here is my list:

Present: Seat Leon Cupra 300 St 4 drive

Past: Audi S4 B6 Avant manual, Seat Ibiza Cupra

I was really happy with the 4.2 liters V8 in my S4, but the Cupra gives me more performance, more practicality and is cheaper to run. Would have loved a manual version if you could get it with fake AWD.

I plan on keeping the Leon Cupra for another 10 years before switching to an EV Estate if they appear one day.

What’s your list?

In fact, there is!

You need to install this. It's an inline resistor system that goes in between a temp sensor and engine control computer. Word on the street is that the newer ECO/VCM 3.5L is "better" than the older ones, but I don't believe it.

From what I can tell, the installation is pretty straightforward.

This one is another option.

Hell yeah, thank you! I'll see if our technician feels comfortable with this.
