    Can someone clarify which oil I need for my car? It's midway between services and needs topping up. The manual isn't too clear on if it needs 5w30 or 5w40. Is the 505.01 spec what I need? I had a search online with 1 site saying I need 5w30 but the 505.01 spec only seems to be 5w40. :confused:

    Does anyone know if the spec of this car is the same as the 2.0 TDI reference sport listed on the Seat website? For some reason the 1.4 TSI reference sport is not shown on the Seat.co.uk website. Also is it possible to get the 1.4 TSI 125 remapped?
