Just had pretty much the same problem with our 56 plate 1.4 16v - Power steering light, ABS light, brake light and engine light all coming on at the same time, radio turning off, then heavy steering, engine cutting out, and the dial needles flicking around. Then we'd restart the car and it...
Found it was fitted with a 44AH battery from the factory.
I stuck with the Bosch S4 52AH one i'd reserved, so it's had a slight upgrade. Reading 14.4v when running so alternator seems OK.
I used to go to Costco but haven't been a member for years, I hear they are good for tyres too.
Cheers for that, I'd not thought of looking on the Bosch site, it was Bosch I was going to buy as well.
I'd just been on there and come up with the same info as you, I was thinking of the S4 52AH one (£70-ish) as there were no S5 listed on ECP for the Ibiza.
I've not used the online click...
Hi,
Suspected dead battery this morning, but the car is not with me, and the missus can't see the battery rating on it anywhere.
I want to reserve a battery online with ECP as the price is cheaper that way, would be handy to be able to do that before I get home to check the car over...
Superb guide, will be doing this when I get home tonight.
What are the number of the cylinders looking from the front of the Car? Is Cylinder 1 on the Drivers side?
Hi,
this is the standard spolier, i've removed the four bolts from inside the bootlid and disconnected the brake light wiring but the spoiler still wont come off - there's something holding it on, it will slide up and down a few mm but if I pull at it, it feels like it could bend or break...
I already have Vag-com 409 with a third party USB cable that I use on my Corrado VR6.
If I upgrade to VCDS will it work on a 2006 Ibiza with my cable or will I need one of the official HEX/key/HEX-CAN Interfaces?
I did try the search but nothing came up relating to MK4.
Cheers
