    Burnt out dash

    Yeah it seems it is quite a common fault although no dealer will admit! BBA said now it is unrepairable although it had a 2 year warranty 4 days ago which is annoying. They have refunded me the cost of repair but I still have to go and buy a new dash at £380. Even more annoyingly I am again...

    Burnt out dash

    Well after much research I got my dash re-conditioned by BBA Reman so in all cost me around £300 with fitting, postage and re-fitting. 4 days after I got the dash back the same problem occured. I spoke to BBA Reman as you get a 2 year warranty and they will repair it. However it will still cost...

    Burnt out dash

    Hi all, Driving home last week and my digital readings on my dash went blank and my dash froze completely. My power steering seem to be affected but the rest of the car, lights etc continued to work. When I stopped the car it would not restart and the dash lights stayed on and were frozen. I...

    Steering Pump

    It works! It works! It works.... Thanks to all that helped. It took only an hour to fit and do and works like a dream! Apparently when they took the old pump out it had no fluid so it must of been totally screwed as it got topped on the service. Anyway so nice to have power steering back...

    Steering Pump

    Hi all, I got the pump delivered today and it "looks" ok so far. Can people take a look at the pictures and see what they think. It is for a Mk4 Seat Ibiza Tdi 130 03 plate. It has the markings of a TRW pump as mentioned above. Being fitted at garage tomorrow just really hoping it doesn't...

    Steering Pump

    Ok right I ordered a pump from BBA RECON and they did NOT ask for a part number/VIN/REG or anything. The part numbers on my pump are as follows: The top code on the silver reads 6Q0423156M Below that on a sticky label were two more codes they were: 6Q1423051 AD 6Q2423051 R I am really...

    Steering Pump

    Thanks RUM4MO you have been really helpful, I do not get a fault code at all on the dash and has been scanned (not by SEAT) and not fault code was displayed. The steering has been slowly getting worse and kind off jinks now and then. I am hoping this all points towards a steering pump...

    Steering Pump

    Thanks guys, You were totally right this wasn't the right one! I just spoke to them and they said they didn't realise I wanted a hydro electric pump! How annoying is that! Anyway after taking the wheel and trim off I found it and now have a part number as well which helps. They may have one...

    Steering Pump

    Thanks guys, Used a few websites and sourced myself a second hand pump for £50! It arrived this morning but and came with a 3 month warranty. Without sounding stupid has anyone got a part code or pic so I can make sure it is definitely the right one? Anywhere of definitely telling? Matt

    Steering Pump

    Hi all, Wondered if anyone can help. My power steering has been going for a while and thought it was fluid levels. After a service the guy said that it wasn't the levels and went about checking any possible cause. Basically the steering pump is faulty and needs replacing. The part alone costs...

    Mk4s in Australia?

    My friend e-mailed the import/export guy in Oz and they said they have not had SEATs since 1999! What a bummer and more fool them! Be cool to have the only mk4 in Oz though!

    Mk4s in Australia?

    Hi, Friend of mine is going to Australia and wants to buy one when he gets out there. I have found used cars such as Mk2 and Mk3 but no new cars. Does anyone know if they have SEAT dealerships in Australia? I have found VW, Skoda and Audi dealers but no SEAT. Exporting one out costs about a...
