Hi new to group. Bought a new cupra leon vz2 225 11 months ago. Car great but never really checked through all products that come with model. Found that enabling cruise control there should be a control for gap distance. Spec includes this on model but there is no gap button on wheel. Suspect never fitted. Have contacted dealership and awaiting response , as I assume l have paid for this in car cost. Anyone had same issue?

If it's like the Ateca it's on the stick you might also need to toggle it on. Check the manual. Mind you I don't use it... something for youngsters. You play with it to get the gap you want between the car in front. Then next you complain when the built in road speeds don't tally with the actual and it starts doing strange things. The domain of ACC. The undertake triggers in and stops you going past cars at junctions and all of that. See what the VIN shows you when it's looked up, then examine the stick or whatever the manual says. On the Ateca, with and without it doesn't have the button. The button on the Born might be moved off the stick. Mind you that steering wheel on the left looks familier. + /- and that dial above the - (that's on my stick). Probably need to toggle it on... where I've got the Ateca one toggled off. :ROFLMAO:. You got to plunge into the manual if nobody steps forward with the answer.

The distance gap should be on the steering wheel . Not there ir on computer screen. Also cant get full beam assist to work. Assuming thats not fitted either. Annoying if you look at trim specs these are standard. Definetely going to chase this up further wondering if anyone else has had issues like this .

Tried vin but cant get spec. Is there a free one or pay to see spec
You can cough up and get the build codes off Erwin. See the pinned post on the Ateca side. If you pay for an hour or two, depends how fast you are you can download all the PDFs. I'd start at £7 or whatever it is. On the build codes you interpret the lines.

The free VIN looks ups come and go they are based on pirated parts catalogues which inject adverts into the catalogue etc. Often they are out of date and won't have the model in them.

Erwin is the official VAG documentation centre. I always say if interested in cars buy the Erwin air time and download the manuals. Again these get republished but out of date at times. The manuals are like Haynes manuals of old but more detailed.

I suspect ACC it's just toggled off and you have to find the menu to toggle on. Button presses. Going to be in the manual.

What is valid is what is stated in the order confirmation and the purchase contract

You do get missbuilds. The question is whether all of the UK models had it missing. Seat / Cupra often say the advertised spec may vary. The UK branch passes onto the factory the car to be built in the range. My belief they don't have good QA on the advertised spec and what the factory builds. In my case Seat UK knew they had misbuilt mine. No wireless charger. In Europe at the time they were selling Ateca Xcellences without wireless chargers with the mib2 plus model. So I got a righthand drive model of it. There were other people in the UK like it. Seat were good enough to phone up and say your car has been misbuilt. I entered negotiations to get recompense for their error, given I'd paid for it. Three years free service but didn't give a good experience. Rushed on pick up days as I held out.

Seat / Cupra UK should go over the intended build spec with what they gave the factory before the car gets built (production). Evidently they don't always, so you end up with a car built for a different market albeit righthand drive. In this case it was the factories fault but you'd expect the UK office would go over what the factory intended to build. It's the build codes, it's easy enough.
