    Get the seats done as well.
  2. Convenience Pack Auto Wipers

    Yes, they just work like standard wipers. Intermittent which is variable using the button on top of the stalk, normal and fast using the stalk.
  3. Convenience Pack Auto Wipers

    When you get really fed up with them never working at the correct speed for the conditions you can unplug the wires from the sensor up in the corner of the screen and you will have normal wipers.
  4. Wheel offset help urgently required

    Well done , you are correct. Surprised it's not stamped on the rim though. If the width of the new rim is correct I'd be going fot it.
  5. Wheel offset help urgently required

    Have a look at the back of the damaged wheel if you still have it. The off-set will be marked somewhere on the back of the rim. It will begin with the letters ET............ e.g.ET45. If you do not have the damaged one then have a look at the back of an undamaged one. The figure 45 is a...
  6. Airbag light just came on

    I'd bet the fault is with the passenger side air bag. There is a connector under the passenger seat and when you silde the seat fully back or forward you put strain on the connector which partially opens. The car then senses a fault with the air bag circuit and shows a warning light...
  7. Rear bumper reflectors

    There is a lug at the outer end of the reflector which slips into a slot in the bumper. There is also a screw about 2/3s the way along starting at the outer end. This screw comes through from behind the bumper. Remove the screw, pull the inner end away from the bumper and withdraw the lug...

  9. alloy PCD question???

    You will not be able to use wobbly bolts to fit a 5x100 wheel to a 5x112 hub or vice versa. The biggest difference that a wobbly bolt will cater for is 2mm ( for example, 5x98 Alfa fitment to 5x100 VW fitment etc etc.) The only ways that you can fit a 5x100 wheel to your Seat is either to have...

    I've been running a Leon TFSi for 41/2 years now and it goes through a litre every 1000 miles like clockwork so yours isn't too bad.

  14. HELP, Chewing gum on seat

    There is a Stain Devil chewing gum remover available but try the ice cube trick first
  15. New alloys/wheel nut advice

    There are two common types of wheel bolts. The first is tapered and the second is radiused. These words describe the base of the bolt head where it meets the threaded shank of the bolt. The word tapered is fairly self explanatory. The standard wheel bolt on the Leon is the radiused type...
  16. Seat Removal

    Do not start the car with the airbags un-plugged or when you put it all together again you will have an airbag warning light on.
  17. Boot release handle thing

    Had the same problem a few months back. Copious amounts of WD40 cured it.
  18. Help please - boot dimensions

    The boot floor is 1020mm x 850mm and from the floor to the shelf is 560mm. Obviously the rear seat backrest folds forward and the shelf can be removed which dramatically increases the available space.
  19. Will Cupra suspension fit on a 2.0 TDI

    Just be sure to check that the diameter of the front struts is the same. If I remember correctly the sportier Leons use a thicker front strut than the lesser models. I'm sure some-one else will jump in and clarify this.
  20. Does anyone know thread size on (m12) wheel bolts for k1

    I don't know what you are measuring or if it is a wheel bolt but I can assure you that all Leons use M14x1.5 wheel bolts. VAG have not used M12 wheel bolts since they moved from four stud wheels to five stud wheels. Check out the link below, especially the Vehicle Application section...
