Hello, three weeks ago I got an Ateca FR as a day permit… In the meantime I discovered in some places (5) “mistakes” in the lacquer. Actually only on edges. Lack is missing here. Looks and also has the size of a rockfall. But can not have been caused by stonefall, as this is not possible with the discovered places. At the moment I have no explanation by what this could have happened… I wanted to repair this suitablely myself. I also scho n energy blue worried. But now I wonder if I should go over the dealer after all. Wherewith I have the fear that he only corrects by paint pencil and then, the result, does not meet my expectations. What would you do? Can that have been ex factory already? Greetings Frank

Hello, have the following problem, since Nov. 2020 I drive the new Seat Ateca. It is equipped with the new infotainment system (touch function). Now my problem, how can I delete one or more targets in the target guidance of the navigation system and save targets as favorites? Even the car dealership, where I bought the car, could not answer my question. Also in the operating instructions there is nothing to do with it. You can only add targets, but not delete them. and help? Many greetings Günter Raschke

Hello, finally it’s time. I can put together a company car and have chosen the Seat Ateca. The Xperience or FR equipment is in question. Due to a budget limit I have to look carefully which special equipment I choose therefore some questions to owner:Business package navigation since I drive relatively much, an online navigation is of course useful. The question here is, is the Full-Link option for 215,00 € sufficient to connect the own smartphone Navi? Bzw . What advantages do you see in the business package ? Sure, larger display and the wireless charge function are known…Virtual Cockpit How are your experiences about this? Play or really helpful? Bzw. Also helpful if you leave the large nav away?Parking steering assistant Both variants already include the return camera, but no parking sensors at the front. The package costs 575,00 €. Question here, can you estimate the vehicle length at the front reasonably well? So far I am always without S but never had an SUV.Beats audio system Listen to music from all genres on every ride via Spotify. Good sound would be important to me. A meaningful investment or are the regular boxes enough? Thanks for your experience.

Hello, hello together, already for months, even years (everything with guarantee) “I hunt down the possible cause for the sporadically repeated VCDS occuring message as attached. Although the service confirmed this message by its own diagnostic system, SEAT expects me to prove that the error actually exists, e.g. through a video. Well, not quite so easy – the failure of the speaker (in my case) in the passenger door at all is noticeable, I find it difficult In fact, I have only once really noticed the failure – but if you only listen to the radio, it is hardly noticeable if the re. channel fails. Due to the VCDS timestamp, I could limit it retroactively so far that it only occurs if I opened the passenger door before or after the ride, e.g. when loading (I usually drive alone). The last (today) reading makes me particularly ponder! This time the Error entry was generated when the passenger door was opened/closed by my wife only for loading the handbag, only 30 minutes later or 2-3 hours earlier. That means, the error was generated, although the radio did not run at all. This leads me to the thought that the cause of the message is not necessarily caused by a interruption and is only a misinterpretation of the STG. If the service had not already this entry itself On the other hand, the error occurred for the first time after 1-2 years, so it wasn’t always there. Does anyone have any idea how to go about it here? On the web, they couldn’t find a comparable case.

Hi, everybody, I drove an Ateca test today to “experience” the assistance packages. I’m kind of disappointed with the track retention ability (or I did something wrong). My comparison value, against which I measure, are the experiences from an X3 that I’ve driven until recently. What I would have hoped: that… – the Ateca stays in the middle of the track – also oriented from the steering movements to a driving vehicle. – he very actively intervenes in the steering, when I come to the lines of the road borders. What have I experienced: – does not remain central – is not oriented towards the front man – only intervenes very discreetly in the steering and also very late, so that I already had to intervene several times clearly itself, in order not to land on the opposite track. Did I do something wrong or how are your experiences with it? Do I expect too much? Thank you Sven PS: I really liked the forward-looking adjustment of the speed, that has funked well Is there a way to configure it in such a way that it does not take exactly the detected speed, but e.g. 5 km/h more?

Dear Cupra owners, I am just configuring my first Seat (i.e. Cupra). Therefore, I am new to this brand. The friendly Seat dealer offers me a “all inclusive carefree package : with all customer services and wear parts for around 38€/month. At 15,000km/year and 3 years runtime I am unsure whether this is not drastically too much. A bit more would be ok… And of course you can’t compare it with the cost of a free workshop. .. How expensive are your customer service costs at the friendly Seat contract workshop? I don’t plan a (!!!) Brembo plant…

We recently have an Ateca 1.5 TSI from 07/2020, which is equipped with the keyless access system Kessy. In summer we clean our cars by high-pressure cleaner in the washing box. In winter, however, we drive into the washing system or wash road, so that the underfloor is flushed (salt). Questions: — What is the situation in the washing road if you are pulled over the rollers with a running motor: How does Kessy or the rear flap react, which is also controlled by gestures? Can the washing brushes trigger the opening process? — Same topic, but stationary washing system: engine off, Fzg doesn’t move? Do you have any tips or experiences? There was nothing to be found in the operating instructions on this topic ….. Greeting ML430

Has any of you already managed that Andriod Auto also works wirelessly as with apple CarPlay? According to BA, this should work and the cable would only need to be set up once.. with my Samsung Galaxy S9, this only works via U’SB cables, just like Mirror Ink.

Hallihallo! Has one of you already had experience with chip tuning in the Ateca? I have ordered a 1.4 TSI with hand switch, i.e. 150 hp and 250 Nm. The chip, which I prefer is a Racechip Ultimate of 43 hp and 75 Nm provides. I worry less about the 43 hp, but rather about the 75 Nm, because I don’t know how much the gearbox (probably an MQ250) still has air up.

Hello, because of the relationship situation I now have a 13j daughter. My CLA is good for short holidays, but for longer distances with correspondingly a lot of luggage, the car is no longer suitable for purpose. Now I need a family-friendly car, for 3 people and possibly another child for the future. What would you recommend me? Ateca or Alhambra? Ateca has less space, but high safety standard. Alhambra is technically aged (no ACC and City emergency brake), but a room Can’t decide… thank you for your help in advance!
