  6. History of my leaking Leon

    OK, This is either a rant or a desparate plea for help, depending how you look at it. Last year (almost exactly) my Leon got the classic water leak into the rear footwells. It also totalled the convenience panal, wiring and shafted the central locking. Oh, and it blew the window motor too...

    balance of warranty and service history

    I'm looking for a mk2 FR DSG around 07/57 plate. From what I have read Seat standard warranty is 3 years so does this mean that if I buy 57 plate car from lets say September 2007 I should still have just over the year of manufacturer warranty left on it? Does seat honour it? Other question...
  8. Value of SEAT Main Stealer Service History over Full "Other" Service History

    Guys, Funny one this, but just how valuable is a SEAT service history over say a VAG service history? The reason I am asking is because I know that my forthcoming service is going to cost around £100 more at a SEAT main stealer than a mate can do for me at an official VW Dealer complete...

  12. Altea model history, options etc

    Hi all I'm looking ahead and thinking about what I will replace the Passat with, probably sometime next year. I had a Mk4 Ibiza for 3 years, then switched to a high miler Passat to use as a load lugger whilst moving & house building. Both remapped 130 TDIs. I've kind of got hooked on having...
