altea

Hi I just got a altea 06 reg sport and comes with the standard flat 5 spoke seat 16" alloys I'm wanting to upgrade to 17" and am looking for a tyre wheel deal lookewd on ebay where there r one or 2 but all the sets I like aren't for the 5 stud altea. I didn't really want to spend much over £400...

As we are aware they are putting the tdci variant of the engines in the altea as of April 2009, and i have a couple of questions. 1, anyone tried the new engines? feedback? 2, are seat likely to load up the old models with load of extras to clear stock? Cheers

Most stuff I've seen regarding remapping is for the 2.0 diesels and people really wanting to squeeze every ounce of performance. I've a 1.9tdi so not interested in outright performance, otherwise I'd have gone for a 2.0 in the first place, but might be interested in a remap if it could get...

Hi Guys, My Altea is chewing rear tires and I'm told it's not the tracking and that it is the Camber, are 04 rear camber angles adjustable? I'm told it's out by about a degree..... What would cause them to be knocked out? Cheers for your help!! Gavin

Hey Guys, I have a 2004 1.9 Altea S and it is blowing oil back onto the firewall. It is happening on the top half of the engine, to the left as you look down onto it. It is towards the rear as there is no trace on the front side of the engine. I'm wondering could it be a turbo issue?? There...

My front tyres are at 22k miles and are needing changed. They are 205/55 R16 and although I took a note of the size, I didn't take a note of the make! However they are the original tyres (July 2007 07 plate). Anyone replaced their tyres and have a preference for a particular make for a...

I've just got a resistor to bridge out the IAT sensor to increase power (so they claim) but I'm unsure of its location. Has anyone a photo or drawing of its position also has there been any feed back on this mod. taa Dean

Hi Guys Just sold of my seat leon cupra as i needed a slightly bigger car (i'm 6ft +). found the leon to be a touch too small as the rear passengers struggled. I luved the leon (had it for 2.5 yrs) so am thinking of the Altea. A local dealer is selling the 2ltr sport d for 7k. Is this a...

Apologies for yet another economy thread, but hopefully with a little more detail than just 'whats your fuel economy?' I've just got a 1.9TDi and am not blown away by the economy. If I take it really easy I can get over 50 but that is on motorway cruises at 60mph most mornings. I've driven...

Hi, I'm looking to buy a Seat Altea, i have found one i like, but having looked at it i am concerned as the bonnet doesn't seem to be flush with the front of the car. It is an ex-leasing car and have contacted them and they tell me they have no record of it being in any kind of accident (but...

I have an 06 Altea which looks like it will have the newer com ports. Does this mean an older cable and demo software off ebay will not work? Is my only option to buy the official cable? Thanks
