  1. Right and Left Vent Heat Differences

    I actually had a smilar problem, took it to 2 dealers and they saw nothing wrong with it, I find the problem fixes itself when I put the climate system to "auto" rather than doing my own thing with it, very odd but I've learnt to live with it.
  2. Headlight condensation is this normal?

    My 2015 rear right taillight has a crack on it on the far right side and on heavy rainy days and after washing it's pure wet in it but it hasn't failed yet surprisingly. I mentioned it to 2 different dealers, one of them twice, took pics and all and they sent them off to Seat to see if they...
  3. Any cost cutting on the mk3 over the years ?

    I have a 2015 pre-facelift FR and a friend of mine has a facelifted 2017 FR, 2 main differences we've noticed are that the 2017 doesn't have front parking sensors the part leather seats have less leather on them, they removed it from the inner sides of the base of the seat but those things I'd...
  4. Mk3 buying advice

    Think you can just register on the website and you can stick in a live bid or else register and pop down to when the auction is happening. Might be worth just registering then fire them an email saying how would I go about bidding for and I'm sure they'd be more than happy to explain as they...
  5. Mk3 buying advice

    I'd go for the 1.4 as it seems decent value and well looked after, but if you want to go down a different route and potentially save yourself a wee bit there's this I seen at cityauctiongroup in Carryduff http://www.cityauctiongroup.com/rockingham/stock/vehicle-detail.aspx?ref=6628Y3C3&location=41
  6. Mk3 buying advice

    Is the 1.4 in Carrick and the and the 1.2 in Newry? If so I'd say go for your one in Carrick, the 1.4, sure mileage is more but it has the tech pack and they both have a full service history. Check that the timing belt and water pump has been done, but from what I hear on the forums etc it...
  7. Condensation removal from tail light including removal.

    No key needed, I couldn't turn it by hand so used a universal socket ratchet and it did the job. Can't help you with the condensation though I'm afraid.
  8. Is the leon a reliable car ? looking to buy one but the salesperson keeps telling me otherwise

    Seat Leon ranks at number 5 on this list of top 10 reliable older cars, the Golf does not make the list. https://www.whatcar.com/news/best-and-worst-older-cars-for-reliability/n19116
  9. Heater blowing cold on passenger side

    I have a sort of similar thing going on, "temperature roulette", except mine is as soon as I turn the temperature to 18.5 or above it gets very hot, almost like as though it's at "HI" and when I turn it down below thats cold, it's like an off and on switch for cold or hot air, nothing in...
  10. MIB1 upgrade options

    Good point, I'm not sure but I recall someone posting on the forum before of an aftermarket head unit which did enable car settings to be changed as it is done in the stock unit.
  11. MIB1 upgrade options

    If you fancy going for aftermarket there's a good few android ones out there...
  12. Winter tyres?

    I've got Kleber Krisalp HP3's on 17" FR 5 spoke wheels, had them on for almost 1k miles and they're great in the wet compared to the Bridgestone S001's on my summer wheels, 18" FR wheels, haven't had any snow or ice yet to try them out on, been relatively mild where I am in Northern Ireland...
  13. Avoid Horizon LEDs if you want to receive anything ordered

    I previously bought some LED bulbs off them in 2015 and then at the start of this year, they were very good with communication, however, I contacted them and asked them on whatsapp if they were still in business at the start of this year before purchasing, as I noticed their Facebook page had...
  14. Stall and restart - 1.4 ACT

    I actually experience the same things, always thought it was just me! Mine's a 2015 with the same engine and the other day actually the car stalled while in traffic and I was moving off, was rather embarrassing as I believe that's the 2nd time it's happened to me since owning the car since Feb...
  15. Black lower bumper

    Let us know how you get on, I'm tempted to buy a red one as I've currently wrapped mine black but I did it myself and it's rather shoddy.
  16. 2.0 TSI 190 DSG

    Remember though, the old one would've been under old NEDC conditions whereas the 2.0 would be under the new WLTP conditions.
  17. Installing second boot light

    I'm interested in how it will turn out, I guess being on other forums can be helpful to nick a few ideas sometimes!
  18. Installing second boot light

    I know it's a different car but you may get some ideas from this thread, they've installed 2 LED boot lights in place of a single halogen bulb. https://www.peugeotforums.com/forums/308-2014-122/led-boot-upgrade-really-bright-169289/
  19. Winter or All Season Tyres?

    I've ordered a set of Kleber Krisalp HP3's which came 3rd in the winter tyre test you linked there, they seem to be good in the snow, less so in the dry, hope I get a good bit of snow this year to be able to test them out! They were meant to be delivered on Friday afternoon but was when no one...
  20. Winter or All Season Tyres?

    Just an update, I've bought a set of Kleber Krisalp HP3's off eBay for £70 per corner, they should arrive by the end of the week just in time for this big artic freeze we're supposed to be getting! The eBay seller is mytyres, they seem like a respectable site and good value and have more choice...
