hi guys, 2002 tdi leon, just got today,
when driving home i noticed bit hesitant going up through the gears almost holding back then letting go (all very quickly) then driving ok, then doing same again? any ideas??seems to have enough lift in it , perhaps a bit slower than i thought it should be, its a 110bhp with 85k, full dealer history to 55k then mot confirms roughly about 8k per year since 06, with a 6-12month period of no mot suggesting period of rest in between. believe the sellers story that he got pissed off with locks and leaks and parked up and used other car.
is it maybe just because the car hasnt been used for a while?
also fuel flap doesnt work, figured out by pulling carpets in boot that i can pull a rod back, to open, but how do i know if its the switch or solenoid?
locks: same old same old, ive had a toledo and read loads of threads, heres a new one:
the drivers door key will only lock or unlock that door, it will lock or unlock the boot only, but neither will operate central locking. it works from inside perfectly on the door panel, and the remote will only unlock the car?
also: this hole any ideas to right of engine bay when you look in, down side of engine ive looked on my other toledo seems to be a plastic/rubber bung supposed to go in that hole? will it not being there cause the problem or could someone have removed it on purpose?
other thing is occasionally the oil light will flicker? 0000
