    dumb key - replace remote one?

    My wife's Ibiza is a 60 reg one (Oct 2010) with a normal 3 button remote and a dumb spare key. We now have to share the car - and I got the dumb key, so each time i open the car with it via the doorlock the alarm goes off if I do not put the key in the ignition etc. Is there a safe way to buy...

    Cam belt and water pump change frequency

    Good point - tis a 3 cylinder. Looking on carparts4less.co.uk they sell a timing chain kit and NOT a cambelt kit.

    Cam belt and water pump change frequency

    Our silver MK3 has gone to the great scrapyard in the sky. We now have a little 1.2 SEAT Ibiza S which was first sold in October 2010. The engine is CGPA189344 It's done just over 31,000 miles BUT seems to have never had the cambelt changed. Am I right in thinking that it should be done every...

    Paint bubbles/blisters

    FRET NOT ... went to local dealers in Hull - Stockill - and problem resolved with a cloth and fine cutting compound paste as it turns out that it was some form of muck on the paint surface. It wasn't tar as it wasn't black/visible. Then redone at home with T-Cut. I feel a right Muppet :rofl:

    Paint bubbles/blisters

    Sun was shining yesterday so I washed and polished the wife's red 60 plate 5 door Ibiza yesterday. There are some paint bubbles at the bottom of the rear offside passenger door. Is this common? they are very small at the moment. About 6 of them. I presume that they are not covered by...

    Mk2 vs Mk3 differences

    One I looked at yesterday was obviously a firm's pool car as it kept scrolling through the mobile phone connections and listed about 6 names and phones. Nice, but odd tyres and a nasty gouge on the rear door paintwork. I like my old Citroen C4 VTR+ and have seen some c 12months old with 15k for...

Not got a local SEAT dealer with ones...

    17" wheels and tyre damage

    oily leaky thing

    Thanks, I'll keep an eye on it. Its due year 4 MOT soon and so will get them to look at it. Glad that we now have an Ibiza again - it was the Mk 3 that I loved the best, despite it's bumpy ride, but it is now in the great scrapyard in the sky :cry: As per the photo here - could it just be the O...
