take the dpf off. surprised to see there are still PD FR's with such low mileage tbh. Also check that the injectors have been changed by seat for free as they fail

ok, dpf bored out then and leave the casing intact, no one has failed yet so dont worry about that but i wouldnt trust another PD engine with a dpf still on. Yes sort off, not an official recall but they get replaced FOC due to a safety issue.

not necessarily, PD were less refined and had worse mpg than the CR's and you didnt get XDS but they had more of a initial punch and you get cool seats in the 550 so that should make up for it :) there should also be a USB port under the seat which you didnt get in a normal FR

CR engines were introduced approx May 2009.

If you're looking for k1s there will be genuine and fakes on the market. To find out if it's genuine you can ring SEAT UK and give them the reg and theyll confirm it.
