Mine had a p0684 code and after checking everything it turned out to be the glow plug control module adjacent to the pollen filter. But I don't know if all cars have that module in that posn. Mine is a 2005 150pd

Hi mate do have a pic of the module and its position?

Sorry to hear that. The classic love/hate Cupra relationship! :handbags:
Good luck with it all!

Cleared a fair few of the codes, battery cold and at rest read 12.89 volts and warm with engine running 14.56 volts , however when measuring voltages from the distribution unit on top of the battery I found a couple to be around 11.5 !, stripped cleaned and a dab of dielectric grease and all sorted.
Airbag codes different kettle of fish , looks like the control models on the cross member under the seat have got damp/wet (this was apparently a known fault on the Toledo/Cordoba - So why not the Leon ?), I've tried cleaning all the contacts and have them sitting in the sun (remember that :/)) to warm up and dry out (hopefully). If not I'll have to replace them.
In the mean time ive refurbished me knob...
