Just bought a Mk1 Leon Cupra knowing it had issues.

Hi all. Just picked up the car from service and I cant fault the service i receve from Taunton Seat, but I do have an issue with the Seat Warranty. I have got 4 unmarked alloys, but on the insides they are corroding. Seat wont replace as they say it is due to wheel cleaner being used and...

Right then, a problem has arisen with the brakes on my tolly v5. All the discs and pads were changed in January and they all still appear nice and healthy. The stopping performance is still good. However, the brakes have begun to graunch extremly loudly when I reverse, and occasionally sligthly...

Hi, Got a weird intermittent TCS issue with my Seat Leon Cupra TDI (04). Twice now, whilst driving, the TCS light has come on the dash (the triangle with the circular arrow around it), and I have experienced reasonably severe juddering, especially when trying to accelerate in a high gear...

My leon has lost the ability to open all the doors off the keyfob. It used to be that when you press the keyfob once it would open the drivers door, then a second keyfob button press would open all the other doors and the boot. Problem is that now no matter how often you press the button it...

HI guys, i think i may have a boost problem. Seat ibiza FR stage 1 remap. When the car is hot the gauge sits at -.8 bar (-11 psi), when i rev it, it moves to -.6 (-6 psi) bar then back to -.8 bar. when im moving and floor it, moves up 1 - 1.1 bar and holds there, does this sound normal because...

Hi everyone Just thought I'd post up a story of a recent problem I had with my Ibiza, a Mk4 130 tdi - an 03 plate thats done about 96,000 miles now. Very inconspicuous start to it all, I was pulling out of a T junction and accelerating away into second and the engine stalled. Thinking I...

Hi, I did do a search, but couldn't find a definitive answer...which I really need as I am going to attempt to fix this myself. I have a 54 Leon Cupra TDI. Sometimes when I lock the car using the key fob, the drivers side door does not lock. It is equally intermittent when I unlock the...

Hi guys, can you help me, I've just had a call from my cousin, who has an Ibiza Cupra, and he said his temp guage hit the dizzy heights of the top of the gauge this morning, and he got the beeps. He was stuck in traffic this morning for a while, and then got the beeps. When he got moving again...
