Hi All, Been a while since my last post. I have cause to issue nothing but good praise to a service agent for a wheel bearing replacement for my Altea. At short notice (1day) I was shocked to get my car in for wheel bearing replacement. I had a very important interview to attend and also had...

Hi All, After another 8 months worth of hassle free motoring the Altea is back in the garage with EGR problems:thumbd:, apparently a flap is not operating properly within the EGR and this could also be blowing fuses. I wonder if this could be a remanant from the incorrect fuel hose re...

Hi All, Thankyou for your comments, an update; Seat service centre found that since the incorrect fuel was added and drained by the Peugeot dealership-the fuel pipes (x2) from the tanks were reassembled incorrectly-(around the wrong way), thus the starting problems in the colder weather...

Hi All, Thanks for your answers so far but the dealer's doing their normal slimey slippery fish routine when it comes to a possible rejection of the car. Seems that the fuel pressures were fine according to Seat. They have reset the ecu, and the car now starts, but on reset the alert held...

Cheers Torquemonster, Seat are taking fuel line pressure readings and sending the info back to Seat HQ for further advice, not too happy with the Peugeot plonker/dealer:censored: Not sure if i am gonna keep the vehicle might reject it yet seeing as the original warranty is soon to...
