    Android auto/full link problems

    @Djh2392 Thanks for sharing as didn't realise this was an option. How big is the dongle itself and any pics? Just wondering how much room takes up as I also have my old iPod sitting in the under tray plugged into USB. Cheers

    Tyre Pressure Confusion

    Hi @SRGTD Thanks for the quick & thorough reply! In that case will probably stick with 38 as compromise between the two. Thanks again Shadders

    Tyre Pressure Confusion

    Hi all Hoping for some advice. I have 2017 Leon FR Mk3 with 225/45/17 tyres but the pressure settings seem contradictory. Sticker on car shows anywhere from 36 to 41 for fronts with light load although not clear what the thermometer is trying to show against the lower pressure. Most of the...

    Upgraded to MK 3 Facelift FR!

    @Tell Thanks for the quick reply(y) I'll be having this supplied/fitted by an official Seat dealer so they will/should be able to have all coding done correctly etc. I'll speak to another dealer tomorrow to see if they can confirm the build code and identify which unit was in there...

    Upgraded to MK 3 Facelift FR!

    Update on the ongoing saga and some further assistance/thoughts required please! Firstly, after being booked in for a second time it was found that the infotainment F5 in the glovebox that the garage I purchased from installed was actually from a 2016 Ibiza! With this it's not compatible at...

    Upgraded to MK 3 Facelift FR!

    Hi The unit had already been swapped out when I viewed/bought the car. The garage just hadn't had time to code as only replaced the same day which was a Sunday so no technicians on site. My one had a Seat SD card in which it seems held the map data and which I think may be the problem. I...

    Parking Aid - 2017 FR Facelift

    Hi daniel_ley Thanks for the reply. I see there is a Carista section here and I'll take a look but, is this safe for a novice like me to use?? I've never used anything like this before but it looks like something that would be really handy for enabling some hidden functions!! Cheers

    Drive Mode Select not working

The car is booked in (again!!) tomorrow with my local VAG specialist to resolve an issue after they had to code...

    Activated park pilot display for rear sensors but beeps stop working

    Hi B1ggus I've just raised what I think is the exact same question as hadn't found this thread! I've got 2017 FR Technology which only has rear sensors and audible warning only. I really wanted/was expecting to show on the screen as well. So if I have understood, you can enable the screen to...

    REALLY LOUD INTRUSIVE TYRE/ROAD ROAR

    I had this from new on my Mk2 Leon. Turned out the wrong suspension geometry was used out of the factory and caused sawtooth wear on the tyres. New tyres solved the issue but would have come back if I hadn't had the suspension reset. I'd get that checked first before changing tyres otherwise...

    Problems Following Service

    Thanks Towcester. On the warm start, the engine seems to turn over fine & from cold catches in a second. Once warm, seems to turn over at same speed but doesn't want to fire. I'm speaking to garage again today about the brakes & will mention the ABS bleed. Anybody else got any suggestions...

    DSG owners

    Hi No, mine doesn't make this noise in any gear. Hope it's nothing terminal as I know the DSG box is costly if it goes wrong?!! How old is your car & how many miles? I've had mine from new on 06 plate & done 67k. Cheers

    Is 38 MPG normal for 2.0 TDI (140 bhp)?

    Hi I run a 2006 PD140 DSG with stage 1 Superchips map. My run to work is 25 miles & mainly motorway with one stretch of about 20 mins stop start which kills the economy. However I still manage about 50mpg on this sort of run. On way home with less traffic I can get about 52mpg. That's...

    TDI FR wont restart when warm

    Hi Fergie Thanks for the update. Did it actually cure the warm starting issue & have you had any problems since? Also, would anything detrimental happen if I left this for now? I don't want to leave if it will damage the engine or anything else. Cheers
