Having recently upgraded from an Ibiza Cupra to a Leon FR, I encountered my first problem today. Emissions light followed by DPF a little later on. Reading other threads, I'm hoping it's just an exhaust pressure sensor. It also happened right after a service, which seems to often be the case...
hello all,
for those who remember i had a thread a few months ago about trying to convert a 6k ibiza to 4wd, the main issues were the halidex/4motion principles and addapting it from a not so similer vehicle, eg, S3 or golf 4 motion,
however, for those who dont know. there is another...

Rightey. Took the valver for a spirited drive around some B roads for the first time since having it at the weekend. I have a few questions/thoughts that you guys may be able to shed some light upon!

Hi everyone, hopefully on my way back into the Seat fraternity.
I test drove a 130 tdi yesterday and only saw around 12 mpg:confused:
It had been sitting for a while and I drove it from cold. I asked the dealer who said it gets better after it heats up. Even so 12 mpg on a ten mile test...
