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

    My dealer fixed it twice while it was still in warranty but it came back both times after a month or so.
  2. Anyone else's Leon take forever to clear the windscreen?

    Yep, although they are pretty rare with this car. My only other major gripe is the annoying vibrating door cards! One day I'll try to tackle that...
  3. Anyone else's Leon take forever to clear the windscreen?

    Yeah I agree with this. In the summer it takes a good 10 minutes to cool down the car, in the winter it takes a good 10 minutes to heat up. Just nowhere near up to scratch compared to other cars I've driven. Thanks everyone for the advice, I guess I'll just have to use dehumidifier bags and...
  4. Anyone else's Leon take forever to clear the windscreen?

    It's a 2014 model with only manual heating/cooling controls. I actually have 2 of these already since I used to use them in my old 2002 Micra. This car shouldn't be old enough to have perishing rubber or anything though so it's a bit crap having to use these. Maybe the Mk3 seals are just not...
  5. Anyone else's Leon take forever to clear the windscreen?

    Now the cold weather's hit, I am reminded of this problem again. If there's condensation on the inside of the windscreen in the morning (not ice), the car takes at least 10 minutes to clear it. This morning it took 12 minutes for the driver view to be unobstructed enough for safe driving. That's...

    Mine is 5F0919866F so doesn't quite match.
  7. Faulty gearbox software - possible limp mode

    Just got a call from my local dealership. When my car was in for rattle fixes 3 weeks ago they updated its software and they've since been told from Seat that the software is buggy and can cause the car to go into "limp mode" (whatever that is). So I need to take the car back for at least an...
  8. Rattling from doors/interior covered by warranty?

    There's a few places inside my car that rattle when accelerating and/or turning, or even just cruising. For example, I can hear it from both front doors (could be where the seatbelts come out of the sides, not sure), also from near the front driver side windscreen pillar. The worst one is...
  9. SE with or without Tech Pack?

    Honestly I have no idea about the different trims. When I was looking at the Seat website to find out which trim I wanted, it wasn't even clear which trims were considered more premium than others. Then you have the distinction between "SE Dynamic Technology" and "SE", which the Technology Pack...
  10. Fan noise after turning car off

    Whenever I unlock my Leon there is a strange whirring noise coming from the passenger footwell too. Turns out it was the CD player seemingly trying to load a non-existent CD for about 30 seconds. I wonder if it's possible to stop it doing that? Anyway, my Leon has done what the OP has...
  11. Best App for Bluetooth audio streaming

    Rocket Player for me. I got the premium version for 10p when it was on sale but it's worth the £3 or whatever normal fee. Great player and no issues with bluetooth streaming that I can think of. I turn on my phone's bluetooth, start the car, and after a short time my music starts playing from...
  12. Pcp paying off early?

    You only get the deposit contribution if you take the finance package. I used online brokers to get £5k off the RRP, although I went used in the end.
  13. Leon MK 3 Tips and Tricks

    Anyone know how the comfort opening and closing is supposed to work? I have one of the two in my car's options, can't remember which. Doesn't seem to do anything automatically when opening or locking the car though.
  14. Updating the inbuilt Mib2 Satnav / Mib2 tricks and Mib1

    There is nothing to "upgrade". It sounds like you're talking about the Navigation Plus system, which as a built-in hard drive. I'm talking about Media System Plus which includes the basic Navigation system. The maps are read from the SD card directly - "upgrading" is simply putting in an SD card...
  15. Updating the inbuilt Mib2 Satnav / Mib2 tricks and Mib1

    Doesn't work. Not sure how many more ways it can be said. It works for two people apparently, I guess you're just lucky.
  16. Updating the inbuilt Mib2 Satnav / Mib2 tricks and Mib1

    Yes...I'm not an idiot, I know what files are meant to be on the card. It. Doesn't. Work.
  17. Which fuel do you use?

    Um....whichever the nearest cheap fuel station is when I need to top up. :/
  18. Updating the inbuilt Mib2 Satnav / Mib2 tricks and Mib1

    Nah, May 2016 for 5F0 fits on the card with ~300 MiB free.
