    Possible Dual Mass Flywheel Issue

    The issue was looked at by my local dealer and they changed the alloy spacer plate between the engine block and gearbox which had distorted and was catching the flywheel which is what was causing the noise. They had a modified spacer (which leads me to believe that this may be a known issue)...

    Possible Dual Mass Flywheel Issue

    Horrible noise coming from my Wifes Altea 1.6Tdi 63 Plate. Dealer has listened to recording as intermittent. They have now said it may be the flywheel. Not sure how to upload sound files though. Have anyone else had the same issue?

    Squeaky Windows !!

    My wifes 57 plate Altea had the drivers window do this the end of last year. We were stcuk so paid the Dealers £150 to repair.

    Factory Fit iPod Connector Functionality

    You need to either buy the lead or a special holder that fits in the cup holder(It still has the same lead connections just costs more). I use the lead and if it is a nano in a small case you can hide it quite well down near the ports. Had mine since new Sept 2010. The only issue I have...

    Thankfully no oil in the coolant or coolant in the oil. But will keep an eye on as now out of warranty. Although looking to possibly change for a smaller engined car due to wifes fuel usage.

    Noise from front driver underside near wheel arch

    I get a grinding noise at slow speed and is worse in the wet. My car is the same and is now about 7 months old. The dealer put it down to having the 18" wheels. But has come up with no other idea. It is similar to my wifes Ibiza she had a few years ago and they put it down to the subframe on...

    Factory Fit iPod Connector Functionality

    With this you need to buy the Ipod connection lead that plugs into the bottom of the Ipod and has a USB and 3.5mm jack on the other end. Plug both of these into the CUP and hey preston all fires up on the headunit. Mine plays up every now and then but then I just disconnect and reconnect. :lol:
