  • Navigation system does not work

    Hello together I hope that there is no thread for this yet. We have our new Ateca FR 2.0 TSI since yesterday. Yesterday everything went without problems and today we get in and the navigation system doesn’t work anymore. It only says “navigation system is loaded….” and it doesn’t do anything. If one says a destination by language, he only indicates that the navigation system is not available. Software updates are not open… I’m pretty desperate. Does anyone know the problem? :/ Dear greetings Denise

  • Let go of the brake, car drives on itself

    Servus all here, I have the Ateca as the first owner since 2021. This is 1.5 TSI, 7-speed DSG, Facelift Model. And I have the following: Of course, if you let go of the brake in an automatic transmission, the car rolls itself. Before that I had Passat (also petrol) and it rolled without it giving gas. The new Ateca gives gas even when I release the brake. I understand that, is gasoline, needs gas. But, when braking and stopping at the traffic light I have the following: I brake and can re quite normal, when the gears of D2 aud D1 switch down and I brake/drive 2km/h to 0km/h, he gives gas again as well as when starting. That means he thinks that I want to start again, because I don’t hold the brake so strongly, I never brake full, and drive slowly. Is that so normal or not? It’s really always annoying to hear when driving in at the ample or when standing gas. He does that himself. But when I brake harder, it doesn’t happen… Lg

  • Does anyone have experience with oil change and inspection of leased vehicle?

    My question is addressed to leasing vehicle drivers who did not have their service at Seat. My Cupra Ateca has to change oil in about 3 weeks, according to AI, has almost 20,000 km on the clock. I had an offer from my car dealership made, 273.- € only for oil changes. I find the liter price of motor oil around 25.- € really happy. He also does not allow to bring his own oil. Free workshops do this for half. Has one of you done this before and there were problems with d he return of the leasing car

  • DSG gearbox “explodes”

    My Ateca 2.0 TDI has four-wheeled and 190 hp, is built in 2017 and now has 72000 km on the speedometer. Until yesterday I had no problems with the car, the vehicle was always in inspection as usual. Yesterday, however, it was quite unexpected “in the engine room” while driving through Avignon in Provence suddenly “schattering”, the car was jerking and it felt as if I had run over a bit of metal on the road. A few hundred meters further on. I am then again. and saw a liquid track behind the car and found metal parts on the ground behind the car. Diagnosis: Gear damage (parts of the housing have been blown away). On the one hand I have to see how the car and I come back to Switzerland, on the other hand I also take care of the damage repair. Even if my vehicle warranty has expired, I hope it’s cool on the part of Seat (can’t be that a gear just exploded). Have you had similar experiences with his Ateca? Is it known at best that certain transmission charges may have problems? I’ve been driving a car for several years, but a transmission damage with a four-year-old car amazes me very much… Lieber Gruss – Michael

  • Facelift Ateca / Cupra

    Hello together, Is there any information when the facelift should come? So if I order for example in May, will it be the new model or still the current one? Greetings

  • TSI or TDI

    Hello, I’m about to order an Ateca. Which engine would you prefer? 1.0 TSI with 110 hp or the 2.0 TDI with 115 hp. The TDI would cost about 2,000 more 🙂 LG Boris

  • 1.5 TSI loud and rough, for the 1.0 TSI so quiet and hard to hear

    Hello, today I drove the Ateca 1.0 TSI to the test. It’s natural to “lock it out” as a weak engine. What should I say?. I was already very surprised at the start, the engine pulls the Ateca really well, feels almost “easy” and the engine is really quiet. Only when turning up, you feel and hear the 3 cylinders through, but not unpleasant. Also clear that there is not much more from 4000 tours, so better to switch up earlier. Al When my wife drove, you didn’t hear anything from the engine at all, she drives passively, never gets firmly on the gas and switches up already at 2000-2500 tours. Also on the highway was heard at 130/140 nix, same internal volume as on the highway. We did not drive faster, because in AT not allowed. The little one accelerates even from 120 really well and attracts adaptable. We were three with almost 300 kilos on board. So the engine is really a big surprise for me. After that with the 1. 5 TSI 130 hp (the dealer only had the Tiguan). Although the tiger seems richer and lightly a class higher, the engine was a gray one. Right at the start, we heard it roaring very rough and the “frequency” inside was unpleasant. Unfortunately, over the entire ride, even on the highway at 130 so strongly audible that we stopped the ride as it went right into the head. My wife and I had exactly the same feeling. Am really shocked by the engine, can that be? Now the Ateca will drive as 1.5 TSI 150 hp to have a comparison, but one thing I can say. I like the 1.0 TSI right away, really a fine engine and in the Ateca sooooooo quiet. Thank you Robert [From motor talk from the topic ‘1.5 TSI loud and rough, but the 1.0 TSI so quiet and hard to hear’.]

  • Preferred service partner no longer available

    Hello community! Do you have that too? My service partner has been in my Seat Connect app so far. Since I have only had the vehicle since February, I have not yet had a service appointment. Now, however, the app reports: “Unfortunately, your preferred service partner is no longer available. Please select a new one.”. However, I know that my service partner is still a seat dealer and workshop, as we are also there with our second car (Seat Mii). Not enough yet. If you try to select a new Seat partner, there is not a single partner in the map in all of Germany. Does anyone know advice?

  • Air conditioning in Ateca

    Hello dear forum participants, I was able to test for the first time a Seat Ateca 150 hp diesel all-wheel with manual transmission. I noticed that despite the 0.5 degree classification it is difficult to regulate the air conditioning. After a short driving time it becomes clearly too warm or too cold without adjusting the climate controllers. Who has made this experience yet ?

  • [Cupra Ateca] Leasing – Questions about tyres and maintenance/tüv at 36 months.

    Moin Community, I think, have received a very good offer for a Cupra Ateca Leasing. Leasing factor here is about 0.55 excl. 850 transfer at 36 months u in total 30K km. Private leasing. However, I have asked some questions for this, which I of course also to the car dealership. So far I have not received an answer and would like to hear your opinion independently. 1. How many inspections are there in the 3 years duration ? -The first probably after 24 months – ka Is the next, second, inspection then after 36 months ? Do I still have to wear it when the running time is 36 months ? – It is similar with TÜV – because the vehicle would be the first time after 36 months – must this then still be carried by the lessee ? 2. How are your experiences – after how much KM you need new brake pads / discs ? 3. Topic winter bikes. – If I order the vehicle now e Then I can ride the first summer with the summer tires relaxed. My idea: I change to all-weather tires afterwards not to need a second set of rims. I will then hopefully drive them for 25K km and then switch to the summer tires again – sure, if they are up earlier I would have to look again. Does from your point of view speak something against ? Thank you for your participation !
