Today I had my car (Seat Cupra) in the workshop and got a Seat Arona as a rental vehicle. After starting the engine the MFA showed for a short time down to the right three characters. What are the meanings? Manual I no longer have, since car left again. Ok, could probably load me the manual from Seat and browse around and look for what the symbols mean. Maybe you forgive me the question (without RTFM ) and my curiosity is quieted what the three symbols mean. 🙂

Hello, does anyone have experience how to get a cable from the battery from the Arona best into the vehicle? I would like to install a power amplifier and an active subwoofer and look for an easy way into the vehicle. Has anyone done anything or a good tip?

Question, who has the technical data for transmission transmission?

Hello guys, for you an info about chip tuning and my associated call at ABT. First of all for the 1.5. TSI, according to distribution currently no support is offered (too much Hick-Hack with the constantly changing exhaust emission standards, scandals etc.) On my demand for free on the market available chip tuning boxes I was pointed out in particular that before a purchase must be absolutely paid attention to whether the box is at all eligible. If not, erlis If an accident occurs, you will remain on the damage because the insurance does not pay. After a short research on the CTRS tuning box, which is so much praised by the car newspapers, it seems that exactly this is not acceptable! UPDATE: Did any of you have experience with chip tuning and get such a thing registered without loss of warranty?

Hello, I need the price list for the ARONA valid in June 2019. Would someone have it as a PDF, and could they hire it here to download? I had asked the dealer, but they said they didn’t have it anymore. Would be great if someone could help me.

A topic for the technology nerds among us (in this case I don’t count myself): How can I get past the truck faster: If I set up at 80 km/h with 1,500-2,000 rpm, or if I switch to the 3rd gear before that? I guess, the latter will get me ahead faster, right? Otherwise, a VDU would not switch back at the full-gas-geben in the above mentioned range…

Hello together, I now have a good 20,000 km on it. Since a longer ride is due in December and I have to change the tires anyway, I wanted to have a first inspection done. For the service booklet or that the guarantee is also not lost and mobility. What should this cost about? Bzw also, what makes sense? 20,000km, 1.5 years old. Got an offer, through a Seat workshop: small inspection, oil and pollen filter change approx. 320€ Zuzgl wheel change 27€ Find this all What did you pay? Best regards, Nicole Meilinger

A hello to all Arona drivers. We got the first new Arona in July, here we had after 4 weeks, which one drove us on the back. Now on 16.08.19 we got the next new Arona and here we have the problem, that the windscreen wipers at the front as well as at the back do not function correctly. We drove at night the first time in the rain, the windscreen wipers rubbed over the disc, that was already very dangerous, because no clean wiper picture was created. The other day in the light I looked at it exactly, it was rubber abrasion from the wipers, this was very stubborn to remove. At the back of the disc there were also traces of the rubber, also that I removed for once. Unfortunately, I did not take pictures of it, I thought it would be done after the cleaning. Unfortunately, it was not, the problem bes tand further. I went to a Seat contract workshop, which made a film of the problem and sent it to Customer Service Seat. Here came in response, windshield wipers are wear part, because they can not make. Today I have attached a new wiper at the rear, the problem persists. Since someone of you had such a problem or knows such a thing from other vehicles?

Hello guys, I was a little surprised today after a closer inspection of my workshop bill after an oil service, that the interior filter was changed again. It was last changed during the inspection (without oil change) in July 2023, i.e. only 6 months ago. In between I drove only 1,800 km. That time before the interior filter was changed only after 3 years and approx. 17,000 km. Was everything in the same seat contract workshop. that is planned in the maintenance plan, maybe more often recently? Or is there something measured in the car with it? But that would surprise me then, because it was very little and also not moved under special conditions. So I would say, last time something very late, this time a little early. In addition, the possible unnecessary costs of about 81 Euro allles come together. Alone the spare rope cost already 56 Euro net. What do you mean? I like good air in the car, but also does not want to unnecessarily throw out the money to the window. I will of course ask in the workshop again in doubt, but wanted to ask here before, what do you think about it.

Hello, I need a new car, which is relatively spacious, has space for holiday items for 2 people and is also suitable for long distances with trailer operation (approx. 1000km a track). Visually it should also make something here. In the eye of me the Seat Arona 1.5 TSI 150 hp. Since this is advertised rather as a city car, many of the used ones have no AHK, which is however indispensable. A retrofit would be expensive here. I now have the following offer of a private property he found for 17,000€: – Seat Arona 1.5 TSI 150 hp with FR equipment – BJ. 2018 – under 30,000km – Full-Led, Alcantara seats, seat heating, cruise control, parking sensors front and rear with parking steering assistant, dead angle assistant, Beats audio etc. – factory-side AHK (!) – 18 inch rims, slightly lowered (liked quite well) – seems to be otherwise also externally and inside very well maintained How do you find the price? Considering that the car is 6 years old and as a new car with the equipment At that time it cost approx. 27,000€ (without a dealer discount included), is the price nevertheless reasonable because of the low mileage? Merchant guarantee I also do not have because of private. Thank you in advance! Duc
