driving

Hi everyone, I’m having trouble driving my Seat Leon FR TSI EVO 18 model in the snow conditions especially on new laid snow or worse case scenario ice, I keep losing control of the car and 2 times now I’m smacked into the curbs and had a few worse near misses. I think my car has summer tyres and...

Five door hatch PHEV Just processing the ST - to follow

Hello, I'm having back pain due to the seat not reclining. It was my mistake not to order the electric adjustment. Thus I seat "on the chair", instead of "in the chair" - meaning that all my weight is pressing on my lower back. I did have a test drive with an Ateca with electric adjustment - and...

I friend of mine test drove my Cupra yesterday and he changed from Drive to Sport or Manual(not sure which one),while driving at 40 mph.Is it okay to do it without stopping,manual states don't change to P or R,while driving,but my dealer told me always to apply the brakes while changing modes.

Is there an easy way to adjust the headlights for a trip to france in a couple of weeks? I'd prefer not to put the stickers on the headlights and I'm sure there must be a way to do it with the lights themselves. Does anyone have experience of this and how do you go about doing it? thanks...

Hey guys. does anyone else have this problem whilst driving? There is alot of noise coming from where the mirrors are... through the seal just behind the speakers when driving down the motorway sounds like youve got the window down. Is this an issue with everyone or have you found a way...

Hello. There is another little problem. When i braking i feels like the car pull into the right and if I not touching stearing whell at that time I can see its turning right. And it seems to me that turn right its easyer than into the left. Any ideas???:))

Now I have the TV activated on my MFD, I've noticed the warning message that comes up while you're travellling. Normally I wouldn't worry about it, but I was thinking about getting some small computer wired up to the OBDII socket, and have a permanent VAG scope display on the screen or...

My car has started doing this all the time now onn the way to work in a morning. Because the roads are jam packed I often drive (well crawl) in 1st using tickover to drive along a busy road I join. Then when the car brakes in front of me and I dip my clutch my revs drop below its usual idle...

Hi, Our 2002 Leon CupraR (35000mi) has just hit 120deg on the way home from the shops (as I overtook a car) I let off and cruised into our village which was 1/2mi or so away and as I pulled into the house the water temp had returned to 90deg. I'm pretty sure it needs the waterpump changed...

Righto Ive recently fitted a New Coolant temp sensor to sort my fueling and temp Gauging readings which it has done... But like last time when i go and start it for the first time in the morning is totally fine but sometimes can be in limp mode... But lets say i go to the petrol station and...

was driving to work this morning nd a van followed me into the petrol station nd the guy said my reverse light was randomly flashing as i was driving along, thought it might go away but it has continued through the day. also realised my rear wiper has also been stuck on all the time even when...

I have had the 17965 overboosting code for at least a year now. Many of you will know or will have experienced the symptoms. Car pulls great plenty of power , then all of a sudden shoots to 5 psi/ limp mode. I have replaced MAF and N75 and yesterday I disconnected all of my intercooler...

just getting a beep while I drive, happened on test drive but assumed it was fuel as it was showing exactly 1/4, then happened after I bought the car as it was showing exactly 1/4 again, then it didn't beep as I dropped below 1/4 this time but it happened again today and it's above 3/4...

Mad question i know but maybe someone can answer it? Ive fitted my coilovers tonight and got them the lowest setting they can do all the way down the threads. I dont drive my car though maybe 6 miles a week at the very most...will they settle on the car with just the weight of the car on them or...

Hi all, Having some issues with my car last night, did a search but couldn't really find anything similar. Driving along in 5th put my foot down, when I backed off the engine cut out. No warning lights, side lights stayed on but the rev counter/speedo etc went off. Pulled over to the side of...

Hello, Would a TDI Ibiza be faster than say a 2 litre petrol in real world driving? Unsure about getting a cupra tdi or a 2 litre N/A petrol.

My Leon is leaking water into the rear footwells (yes,both sides!), when left parked up for any lenghty period of time when raining:cry::cry: I have looked everywhere but cant find where the torrent is coming from. As far as I can make out, it must be coming in from somewhere at the rear of the...

Got a 2004 leon cupra r. I've had a few problems in the past with buckled wheels, wheels cracked and unbalanced wheels, which has given me a lot of vibration through the steering wheel. However, my car now seems to be vibrating at any speed, which is really annoying, really hoped I would get a...

OK the leon handles pretty well in the dry although a little light on the front with some understeer. In the rain its completely different. I have to pull away real slow or the traction control kicks in and goes mad to stop the wheels spinning and i get real bad understeer, even small bends...
