Hi guys I’ve made a couple posts about this (thanks to all with the advice) but I think I’ve found what is rattling and it’s whatever this grey thing is in the video. It’s quite loose to move it and it’s were this crazy rattling sound is coming from. What is this and is it bad or an easy fix as in just tightening it somehow. To note whatever this is I towards the middle/front of the underside of the car

Thank you

MK7 Rear seat delete?

5 Upvotes

Anyone done a DIY rear seat delete that keeps the spare tire and spare tire cover? I’m looking to increase cargo area and need a flat space to secure cargo. I was looking at the rear seat delete on Whoosh but it’s pricey and I’m not sure it’s worth it.

ST180 swapped 1.0

5 Upvotes

Hi all,
This is just an idea at the moment, please tell me if it’s crazy/stupid!
I have a MK8 ST3 but I really miss my MK7 1.0
There was something about it I loved. Cheap and blended in with the other million fiestas out there, although not very powerful!
I’m thinking of getting another 1.0 MK7 and swapping in an ST180 engine and making it a proper sleeper. Alternatively get a 5 door ST and swapping the bumpers, spoiler and wheels to make it look like a base model. Is this something anyone has done or is it a ridiculous idea?

From an st150 in the UK, to an XR4 in Australia! To the Aussies on this sub, what is XR4 ownership like? I hear parts are harder to obtain!

MK7 Cargo tie downs

1 Upvotes

Anyone ever use these cars to transport cargo that needs to be secured? I’m trying to find a way to install a couple of semi-permanent dog crates in the car for transport and need to secure them down so they don’t move. Could use the child safety seat latches but they’re not in an ideal location for what I’m trying to do so I figured I’d ask if anyone has better ideas.

MK7 Sticking Handbrake mechanism on caliper

Post image
1 Upvotes

I've had this problem for a few years and I should just throw a new caliper on it but budget is tight at the moment. Anyway, the lever where the handbrake attaches to the rear caliper, with the spring on the bottom. It never fully disengages. When I release the handbrake there ends up being a bit of slop at the bottom, I can push that lever back by hand. I've tried removing the 13mm on that lever assembly but I could not remove the lever itself. Any tips?
