Hi there. I am a new poster on the forum but I have lurked for a while. I have had my Seat Arosa S 1.0 for 3 years now and I have had no problems with it until recently. It has developed a fault which showed up as P1444 EGR valve position sensor -G212: implausible reading. It passed the MOT...

I wonder if someone can help me/make any sense of this. To start with the whole story: In september I took my car off the road for 2 and 1/2 months, while I took off my manifold, KO3S, TIP, Full turbo back exhaust system, while I sourced GT28 Parts. While it was off the road, I have taken...

I have searched the threads and have not found my particular issue, so would appreciate some advice. My rear wiper jet does not work, however the pipe to the connection on the wiper side is fine, with good pressure, so I think its within the jet housing to actual jet. I read in other posts...

Not wanting to clog up Jamie's thread with my stuff, I've decided to start my own thread. As you know, my ATP GT2X turbo has blown. Oil smoke belching out the exhaust, burning oil and a screeching sound when it comes on boost! So ... the turbo has to come off. I have decided to do it...

I am currently haggling with a local dealer (Penman Darlington) for a Leon TDI FR. I noticed in the showroom a leaflet about "Fixed Price Maintenance". When I asked the dealer he just waffled a bit and changed the subject. Tried phoning the number in the leaflet, gave up after being on hold...

I couldn't get my handbrake light to turn off yesterday and it was accompanied by a very loud, very annoying beeping when I tried to drive off. The noise went off after 5 mins, but came back on when I drove off again after stopping at some traffic lights. Following advice elsewhere in this...
