I had same issue with passenger blind. The actual mesh and roller was there but somehow someone had yanked off the plastic clip and metal bar. I managed to get the mechanism off ebay and you have to take the whole door card off to fit. Bit of a pain but the old one just unscrews from the inside...

I have a 17" Alhambra SE Lux and has no space saver spare wheel. I have a 16" space saver from a previous car but looks way too small as the Alhambra has 17" wheels on it. Can anyone who has a space saver spare tell me the size of the wheel or tyre in use? I think I can get something from eBay...

I am having this problem too. The drivers seat actually moves forwards and up and I have to press number 1 to get it to move down again. I think the key itself holds a memory position so I am just figuring out how to reset it. Ideally I would just like to disable memory seat completely

Just got a 184 SE LUX DSG and love it coming from the Altea. Couple of questions, I know with the leather seats you lose the storage drawers underneath the seats, what do others put there in place so you can use it for storage? Also, I have a dashcam stuck on the window by the rear view...

I am in the market to buy an Alhambra 2016 or 2017 model approx. Just one question, what is the difference between SE Lux and Xcellence? Also, on the head unit, what is the App button as some just have a traffic button. thanks Rob

In my Golf Plus 2007 model, all I had to do was take of steering wheel, replace the stalk and then program with VAG-COM and all worked fine.

I got myself a 15 plate XL but had to get the train upto Kendal to get it. It's been great, got every gizmo you can think on it. My dad loved it so much that he found a standard one at Motorpoint Derby which was ex-mobility for a great deal. Keep an eye out, they do pop up on Autotrader.

I had same problem and in a previous Altea I bought the OEM part which is expensive and to be honest, too big. I have an Altea XL and now use one of these which works great ...

I noticed this too. They way I tell is that if you look at the light rotary switch which is in the auto position, this will tell you the status of the lights. If Auto is illuminated then the lights are off. If the Auto is off and the light LED below is lit then the lights are on. That is about...

Hi Rookie, I have the same car. The high pedal is a standard thing on most VW based cars. My previous Golf was like that and so is the Mrs Fabia. As it's auto you just get used to it. I actually like it now.

It's hard to describe really but the bottom of the seat near the back there is a fold in the seat base with a metal pole through it and I can basically feel that digging into my arse cheeks and I am constantly squirming on the seat to get comfy. Also, I feel I am leaning to the left in the car...

Took it to Seat in Liverpool today and they looked at it and couldn't find anything wrong surprisingly. Said would need the car for 3 days to do a complete strip and rebuild and order any parts if required. Seems a long time but I can't do without a car for 3 days. May have a look at the seat...

My 9 month old Altea XL has an issue with the drivers seat in that it has become so uncomfortable as if the foam has collapsed in it. The passenger seat is fine. Did a 200 mile journey today and my arse is numb after sitting for a while (M1 traffic) Would this be covered under warranty as I...

Ha ha great response

Just got my Atea XL iTech, love it just a great car. One annoyance though, the front cup holders! They are in the wrong place for a start and a normal bottle of water just about fits in but when you accelerate or go around a corner the bottle just flies out. What have others done to stop this...

Had this problem a few weeks ago but thought I had fixed it. Driving along and when you take your foot off gas you feel the car slow down as if the handbrake is on. Definately not on and only noticed when I stopped that smoke was coming off of front right wheel and on inspection is red hot...

I have had this issue once before and it happened to my wife today. Driving my 2.0TDi DSG in 'D' mode doing about 50 mph and you put your foot down to accelerate. Not hard on the pedal but enough to make it accelerate without changing gear. When you do it, nothing happens, so you put your...

Do you know the part numbers of the blade refills? I may get some as mine are smearing at mo. thanks

I ended up getting just the wheel from the Seat dealer for £50.16 and then managed to get a new tyre for about £20. Kwik fit then fitted it for £5. Cheaper then buying the whole lot new which is £143 with tyre. Rob

I assumed it was more Window than mirror related. What is in the kit and how much is it? thanks Rob
