Colour codes if anyone knows them?

Anyone know the spring codes for 130 Mk4s?

Not quite sure I would agree with "so easy" more like "so tight for space"

I was going to replace both my starter and battery but discovered that the connection from the solenoid into the starter casing wasn't as tight as it could be so nipped that up together with a new battery and finally after a year of poor hot starting it now zips over and fires straight away

Has this been solved? My PD130 also became bad to start when hot I'm reading up on the Hammand Mod to trick the ECU into a different map if the engine can't reach 280rpm when hot has anyone tried this?

Mine doesn't have any sort of dustcap? Can you send me a pic of one by any chance?

So I presumed my car had a solid pulley on the alternator rather than a seized one. What's the possibility of this and how do I recognise a clutch type pulley?

No the N75 is a control valve in the main solenoid block. There is only one boost pressure sensor. On mine it is in the top of the intercooler, on yours I think it is in the top elbow pipe coming out of uour intercooler

How do you know it is overboosting? My car had a recent problem and was recording overboosting but it was a failed MAP sensor

Well I presume its a solid pulley! How should I recognise a freewheeler?

Oh I see So the electrical load on full lock would load up the alternator then? I have read of these freewheel pulleys but my car has a solid pulley on the alternator, (perhaps because its a cheapy Seat not VW) it was just the tensioner starting to allow the belt to flap about New belt and...

No, why would it?

Can anyone tell me what to expect in replacing the tensioner on a PD130 engine? How much desmantling needs to take place to get the tensioner out and what needs to be dismantled? Cheers

My car now seems to have been fixed by replacement of the boost pressure sensor

The car is playing up N75 valve is coming up as a fault code, but the code CAN NOT be cleared suggesting possible wiring fault. Failure of the late combined multi pack N75 valve seems to be very uncommon so possible fault in the wiring harness between the ECU and N75 valve

Wiring diagram needed for Ibiza Mk4 1.9tdi 130 ideally. Specifically ECU pinouts and wiring to N75 valve please. Any suggestions or help please?

Hello I'm having problems with my PD130 at the moment which are not yet resolved but its beginning to look like an N75 valve fault OR a fault in the wiring between the ECU and N75 valve I don't know about the fault codes that you are quoting but I have leaarnt that "overboosting" shows up in...

What other forum would be a good site for discussing the pros and cons of Seat ownership then? I think this is probably the best one :-) lol I will indeed have a very nice and well maintained red 130 Sport for sale this summer if anyone would like one........

Ran VWs and Audis as road cars for twenty years and used to really rate them. I still have and love my MK1 Gti Cabriolet and Mk2 GTi 8V, just a shame that Seat and Skoda take a reasonable basic design with VW/Audi components and build something inferior poorly thought out fittings, lights...

Most cars with an "S" badge are duds........
