  • Purchase advice 1.4 – Price ok?

    Hello, I am currently swinging between a Seat Leon and a Mazda 3 as successor to my A-Class and have found the following offer for a Leon:http://suchen.mobile.de/…/235917623.html?action=parkItem “Misses” the car anything important? Is the price in order or too high?

  • Wrong bridge

    Hello, good day My car battery has emptied itself a few times because of a short circuit. Until I bought a new one, I bridged a few times battery. One time it went back because I unfortunately + and – confused in the dark and since despite a new car battery my self-built Navi/Autoradio no longer goes. I checked all fuses in the car and they were in order… . The car radio gets 14,1 v voltage in idle and 12,8 when it is off… but navi does not work anymore. Then I bought a new car radio and with the new one it runs the same way. But I noticed that with the new under details it stands that it works with dc 12v dc (there is not 12v to 14.4 v) … can it be that it is the reason? Is 14 v voltage on car radio with 7 inch screen with 4x55w output power too much? Or what else can everything have been broken? Thanks in the presus ? Ps The only difference between the two connection lies with the cable tree

  • Mii 60PS drunk

    Huhu, this morning the Seat didn’t want to start from my treasure, the starter turned happily and I could not find any sign of a weak battery, there was only three weeks ago a new, larger dimension, the previously installed had abandoned the mind, but 1 1/2 worked without any problems. Luckily my car master of trust came quickly long and looked at it, hung the start aid and started with the poor Mii running very rough, but then caught and ran clean. He thought he was probably drunk, but actually he was only 10 days not moved and stood there, we should watch it. Well my question, how then probably the excess gasoline found its way into the combustion chamber and whether we have to think about it, he has a running performance of about 190000 and never had problems, no short distance operation etc. but always constant 15km to work and just so many retour. Errors were not deposited and Marder tracks I also searched in vain. I look forward to your feedback

  • Conversion Forester on LPG gas

    Hello, who has experience with LPG gas at the Forester? Would buy me a new one in March 09 and have it converted to gas?

  • Cost of rusted (drum) brakes

    Dear motor talk community, usually I am just a reader of this website, but today I have for once not found any help to my problem so you can help me. If there is already such a topic, then I ask you to link me. It’s about my Seat Mii with 60ps (automatic) BJ 2015 with about 60t km – 20 tkm are from me. Today I wanted to go and the rear wheel has blocked. Normally only a short squealing (not disturbing) comes when the brakes are wet or very damp, but today the brake was completely fixed (it had about 5°). I tried to drive several times and after about a meter I gave up and called the ÖAMTC/ADAC. This is then also relatively quickly arrived at me and has solved the brake with a metal rod. I asked him then how I can avoid it? And here is the following problem occurred. He has told me that I should not put the hand brake anymore, but the car does not have a park mode and would roll away if I did not put a hand brake on each of the park too long and say to me.

  • Windscreen wipers are constantly running

    Hello, I have the following facts: With our Arosa, BJ 2002, engine identification letter AUC, the windscreen wiper is constantly running at the front, no matter which step is set. The windscreen wiper is no longer running; only windscreen wiper water is sprayed. After the battery has been disconnected and clamped, the windscreen wiper runs without any rest after a short delay. I changed the relay 19 for another (used) one, then everything went as described above. Is the used relay probably defective or can the error lie somewhere else? Thanks already…

  • New BCM reports incorrect error with defective flashing lights, rear

    So, here as a separate thread, in the hope that someone can help me further. Since I have placed a used BCM (1S0 937 087 K) in my Seat Mii, this BCM provides wrong errors over the flashing lights at the rear (left + right). If I delete the errors, they come back immediately. The lights themselves work perfectly. The errors themselves would not disturb me, but the flashing LEDs in the instrument cluster + the acoustic signal run twice as fast as normal. That’s annoying already a bit I guess it has something to do with the coding. I have transferred the coding of the old BCM (1S0 937 086 F) as well as possible, but maybe something doesn’t fit anyway. Maybe someone knows this here. Can this possibly be at the value for byte 18? The value 40 is not recognized by VCDS… If someone accidentally installed the same BCM, and sometimes because the coding could be read out, I would be very grateful! Photos of the error codes and the coding for the old BCM!

  • While driving suddenly power away

    At the moment I am frustrated by the Arosa, it is unreliable. But from the front…. Arosa 1.4l, AUD, Bj 2003, 5 gear manual gearbox, ABS, climate, servo…. …so with this model “full cabin”… I bought last year, had previously been admitted to an old woman and had massive maintenance jam. New in there are meanwhile alternator, battery, brakes, starter magnet switch, rear wheel bearings. At various places the “copper worm”, electrics is eating in many places. Since Christmas I have stayed several times with the thing because suddenly the onboard voltage collapsed. Thus also earlier on a ride into the neighboring place. Battery voltage was measured before the departure at 13,1V, after about 3 km, briefly the airbag control light went on during the ride, then the tacho unit became dark and the engine went out. ignition on “0”, key pulled, engine hood on, battery voltage measured…. 12,6V. Optical control, everything without finding. Start attempt, car runs again. After that, has a voltage break from the battery.

  • Battery control lamp flickers LiMa and battery new

    Moin! My Arosa first started flickering with the LKL, then the LiMa was changed. Lamp flickered further. New battery problem Was gone! After about 2-3 weeks it is now completely escalated. I was just on my way home when suddenly the on-board electronics failed, then only 8,7V were available. Just saved to home and now I stand there and don’t know. Are the coals through after 3 weeks? / Battery after 4 days capped? LiMa from 70AH charging current to 90AH Improved. Battery from 44AH to 65AH Improved. Vehicle: Seat Arosa 6hs BJ: 2004 50 Ps // 1.0MPI Vehicle has a Hi-Fi system that naturally also causes the on-board voltage to fluctuate, which has not caused any problems before. Range 0.1V – 0.5V

  • EC, production and VIN or FIN decoders

    I bought a second car for my wife. Yes, really, she now has two cars: the station wagon, which also serves as a dog transporter and now additionally a Mii, which is supposed to serve for the work path. At her new workplace she gets a parking space, but the parking garage is old and tight – there is a small or small car simply the better choice. To the Mii I have a question: Until when was the Mii with petrol engine actually built? According to the vehicle papers he would have to come from the model year 2019. However, the first registration was in June 2020. Stand the car after the production eternally on halt or did there possibly for the 2020 produced copies simply no newer marking? I would like to clarify this. I searched for and searched for it, but did not find a VIN decoder, which could answer my questions. Sure, VIN decoder can be found without end, but these are pure advertising pages, which I want to know like “Hat an accident?” or “Waited at …” last. Since it can be a consistently stacked firsthand vehicle, I don’t need to know the history.
