    Engine cover

    I did the same when I bought mine in February and discovered when I went to the dealer to buy the rest of the fittings that the car did not come with a cover from new. The dealer has lots of people asking for the same thing. I bought a Scoda one on line and a cheap set of badges for £3 or so...

    timing belt

    If it is a 2.0 TDI you need to have this changed every 5 years and it is also clever to have the water pump done at the same time. I have just had my 2009 2.0 TDI Altea done last week and it cost me £576 and it took the garage a whole day to get the old one off so I was pleased Seat have a...

    Seat dealers - repairing G201 pressure sensor fault completely free!!!

    My car was in for a new timing belt and water pump last week and I was chatting to the service chap and telling him that I had to pay £504 to VW for my golf when it had the ESP fault and he told me that Seat still do the replacement free for all ages of car. He also said that when I had my...

    Rear wiper swap - tips or pics?

    It is just held at the middle and the outer plastic shroud thing stays in place. Looks like a standard wiper blade when you get it off. Press it in at the middle and it will click into place.

    Rear wiper swap - tips or pics?

    Hi, it just pulls off at the middle, it will be a bit stiff but persevere and it will come off. Then it snaps on again pressing at the centre. Good luck.

    Engine cover

    Just to say I have fitted the cover from eBay and bought fittings from dealer and it is looking good. Not sure I would have bothered if I had known that my car had never had an engine cover from new, I thought it was missing. How did you get on with yours?

    Engine cover

    I went to the seat dealer this am and they wanted £40 for the mounts plus £15 for the badge, so i left the badge and fortunately my engine has one of the brackets already fitted so they charged £24.41. Will pick them up Thursday so will let you know if it fits ok. Just to add, the car...

    Engine cover

    As recommended by skard I ordered mine from eBay for £32.50 delivered. There were a lot more expensive ones mostly VW ones but this will suit me fine as long as it fits ok. There are a lot more for the 1.9 so you should be fine, good luck.

    Climatronic not cooling

    Yes was going to have it checked out, just wondered if I could have done a reset on it myself if anyone knew how to do it on my model. There are lots of you tube clips showing it being done on other VW Audi models but only one on an Altea but it's not clear which buttons to press and in what...

    Climatronic not cooling

    Hi, I have a 2009 Altea 2.0tdi and have only had it for a couple of months and have left the climatronic set to auto and was happy enough with it but today was hot and sunny and the car wasn't cooling down. I tried recirculating mode and both set to low but it wasn't blowing cold. I would have...
