Club Seat Exeo

welcome to the club.

Hi, Welcome to the Foro Club Seat Exeo in Spain. I like your car and the pictures are very nice. What kind of DLR do you have? Do they give the problem of molten light? Congratulations!

The DRL Leds are from Benzinfabrik in Germany: https://www.benzinfabrik.de/de/led-tagfahrlicht/tfl-audi/smd_led_tagfahrlicht_fuer_audi_a3_a4_a6_tt_q7_tfl_set/

I only used the LEDs. Replaced the resistors with ones with cooling body.

Drilled holes in the socket for the wires.

Resistors are getting appr. 40 degree Celsius. I haven't notice anything melting.

Welcome. Your car is very stylish, but also the original tires are beautiful. Also, you're right with the color.

It is our best car in Spain, enjoy healthy.

Hombre, el best, el best... Está muy bien, pero tanto como el best con las marcas que hay por aquí, resulta un tanto pretencioso creo yo.

Un saludo!

Hi Mcdonald!! Congratulations to the " Brico " but I belived that you had the solution without the resistors!!

I have Make more or less the same system that you and this is my description:

BRICO MONTAJE LEDS DLR

Thanks and congratulations for your car.

I use for each DRL LED bulb 2 resistors of 39 Ohm / 50W (parallel = ~20 Ohm). The resistors are mounted on an alumnium angle bar. The temperature of the resistors is approximately 40 degrees Celsius. No ventilator needed!

Wires are going through the original socket and are soldered to the contacts.

Replaced the blinkers for clear ones:

Replaced rear lights and license plate lights for LED units:

Tip: If you ever want to replace the rear discs you need the following 8mm hex key from Laser Tools (part no. 5584) for removing the callipers: https://www.lasertools.co.uk/item.aspx?item=10964

It's a diverter valve also called a turbo circulation valve or blowoff valve (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowoff_valve)

The original valve is completely made from plastic and can malfunction when turbo pressure is increased especially on a chipped (tuned) car.

The Forge valve I have is the FMDV008: https://www.forgemotorsport.com/content.asp?inc=product&cat=&product=FMDV008

Thank you so much for the explanation.

Another question.

Have any improvement on the performance? or only changes it for safety?

Thanks in advance.

Congratulations, great to have another DIY guy here. Just a question, didn't you replace calipers and lines in the brakes mod you've done? I'm asking because I suppose temperature can reach higher with no fadding now. Take care pal.
