Hey guys, new to the forum.
Recently purchased a Seat Leon FR TFSI (MK2). Its a black 2006 plate with only 27k miles.(genuine I hope!). Had just 1 previous owner who was an old man (so am told) so hardly been used so is immaculate inside and out! Really pleased with it overall, love the power and great all round to drive, a big improvement from my Polo 6n.
Everything is standard on the car at the moment, plan to keep it this way for now just whilst am getting used to the change of driving a much bigger and more powerful car. Only thing I've fitted is a dash cam and a tracker.
Despite only covering 27k miles, I don't believe the cambelt/waterpump has ever been changed so that'll probably be next, I think its supposed to be done every 4 years regardless of mileage?
I have a few minor niggles with the car as well such as: (if anyone can comment that'd be helpful)
I'll be on here for a while whilst I have the Leon, alot of good and useful information, some cracking looking cars too!

- My emissions light coming on the dash board (had my ECU reset and seems fine now, was told that if it comes back on then I need to have my turbo checked out as could be loosing boost?)
- Sqeaking sound upon starting my car from cold (belt from the alternator maybe?)
- Rattle from the exhaust (cold start)
- Bit of moisture on the inside of the oil cap (mayo looking substance, might just need to clear out the filters etc, give it a good long run)
