    MK4 SEAT Leon owner's register - what you got?

    I was speaking to a dealer in Dublin yesterday and he was telling me he ordered a 1.5TSI DSG, I'd be surprised if it wasn't available.

    Mk4 cupra leon - could it be 4 drive?

    I very much see the Leon ST 4drive as a rival to the R, and maybe the S3, behind in interior finish but performance wise they're essentially the same car.

    Anyone else's Leon take forever to clear the windscreen?

    I've been experiencing this in my 19 cupra, If it's warmish inside the car and cold outside, when I get in it's fine but after about 30 seconds it'll all steam up.. Had me sitting in the middle of the road with hazards on one evening because I couldn't see anything a few seconds after pulling...

    Coolant loss from tank on motorway journeys or high speeds

    i understand it may be too late now but an important point to highlight again - when buying anything, not just a car, you should always bring it straight back to the place you bought it from right away. I get the impression you felt you didn't have any recourse with the trader because it wasn't...

    Tiny Leon!

    based on that pic and looking at my own car I feel the Leon slopes in towards the roof more than a lot of other cars

    Seat Leon X-perience too much wheel spin and DSG hesitation

    "traction controll lamp lit up for few moment and hearing the wheels spinning a little. Is this normal?" with ESC on, seeing the light flash is normal if your car is detecting wheel spin, that's it attempting to correct it by reducing power and other magic I don't understand.

    Autoglyme lifeshine paint protection

    I got this for free from the Seat dealer and was initially very impressed, water beading was great etc but I wouldn't be paying lots of money for it. it should be free with any new cupra IMO, along with the cleaning pack.. it's in their interest to have lots of shiny cupra's on the road anyway...

    Squeaky rear seats

    Interesting, i'll take a look at that thanks! I wonder if too much weight with the seats down can cause this, as thinking about it now I feel like I started to notice it after a trip to woodies...

    Squeaky rear seats

    Hi, I have my cupra ST about 5 months now and recently I've noticed an annoying squeak from the rear seats anytime I go over any bump/speed ramp. I'm pretty sure it's due to the side leather of the seats rubbing against the plastic trim. Anyone any recommendations to prevent it? Why would...

    1.8 TSI 180 vs 2.0 TSI 190 Leon ST

    I'm guessing as I haven't researched but I assume they introduced the 2.0 tsi 190 for WLTP? - I wonder how the WLTP MPG compares, or it could have been to introduce the petrol particle filter (or w/e it's called) - like what Audi did with they 1.4 tfsi -> 2.0 tfsi

    Carista App

    Anyone change the Haldex AWD system setup? Default is standard and there's "increased traction (more power to rear wheels) Also, anyone know if the park pilot will activate on a cupra st 2019 reg? Nice to lower the sound actuator, worth it for that alone

    My first Cupra wave!

    Had my cupra about 2 months before a Seat Leon FR driver pulled along side and gave a thumbs up.. Gotta say, it was a nice feeling, like.. "say man, nice life choice, you win!" kinda thumbs up haha

    What's your car washing routine?

    What pressure washer are people using? I want to get one but also don't want to spend extra money on something that's overkill. (sorry to slightly hijack but seems relevant!)

    Cupra front and rear badge replacements

    IMO, and because it's on mine haha, the copper SEAT badge is nice and will be more rare once the cupra badge is on all new cupra leons (next year I guess?)

    Cupra 300 4wd fuel consumption

    I do about 16 miles each way on 90% motorway. If I keep it around 100kph/62mph in eco individual then I average about 38mpg, it regularly peeks to 42mpg but that's cause I'm rolling a lot, eco really can help if used correctly (i.e, used to maintain momentum and avoid braking when safe/possible)...

    Leon cupra urban silver paint code

    Thank you all for the helpful replies, it really shouldn't be this difficult! I did think it was in the service book but I've no idea where that is gone (another issue to sort haha). I think i'll order L5L5 from halfords and test it in a really hidden spot.
