  • Experiences after the first 2,000 km not only good…

    1 month ago we added 150 hp to a 1.5 TSI ACT FR. We are very satisfied with the driving behaviour. Consumption is also good. Unfortunately, there are already criticisms and I would be interested to know if the state of the art should be… Luggage compartment: If you open the trunk, it always stops on the half. You always have to push it to open it completely. LED: Brightness good, but the illumination (light range) is underground. Can be adjusted. on yes no problem, but with LED? Mobile phone reception: My husband had a Fabia before and there the reception was great. In my Superb also great. With the Leon we drive the same distances and constantly the reception is gone. This is annoying. Is that normal? It doesn’t matter whether mobile phone in the bag, in the connectivity box or even by magnetic holder at the ventilation nozzle, reception everywhere equally bad. So, then let’s hear…

  • What’s the cost?

    Moin, this is my first post in the Seat area. And immediately with an important question for me: (I would like to buy one. Exclusively with 190hp. That’s the starting point. Let’s see if and when can be delivered. And what the price list says then. At the moment there is nothing. The cheapest offer that I have now LP – 40% or is there more? Additional question: does anyone have experience with imports and can report about it? Maintenance etc? Repairs? Warranty?

  • When or at how much mm do you replace your summer tires?

    Hello, I drive a Leon Cupra ST 4Drive, which I leased for 4 years. I have to hand it over in September 2021. I now have about 4 mm profile on the summer tires. My question is now, when do you replace your summer tires, so how much mm? I’m not sure if I will have the required 2 mm when returning next year in September. To return, of course, I don’t want to put on any new tires next year. That’s why I’m considering whether it’s not Then I can still ride 1.5 summers with new tires, which I can then also use and which I can use afterwards. But do you think it makes sense to change it at 4 mm or is it not necessary in principle yet? Especially in the 235 width and with four wheel… What do you think? Thank you!

  • Oil change due too soon?

    Hello together, Is it normal that the hybrid of the 6 months old is showing change in 2 months oil? According to Seat contract workshop nobody knew what until they had read on site and said yes is normal. The Seat dealer I fetched at said “I can’t imagine. Feels 2 people asking 3 get answers. With a photo from the app, by the way, my control unit was changed from infotainment as with many recently. Don’t know if the previously asked 3 answers. also shows the service or whether it is due to the new ECU ?! Have you already had an experience ? Thank you

  • CUPRA Leon ST Hybrid: BAFA promotion 2022?

    Hi Motor-Talk, I’m about to order a CUPRA Leon ST Hybrid and I got informed yesterday at BAFA about the innovation award. If the delivery time is about 4-6 (probably longer) months, I can submit my BAFA application at the earliest 2022, as the car must be registered for me for 6 months when buying cash. However, stricter rules apply to hybrids from 2022 and these have to create 60km purely electric… but according to which of the two standards (WLTP, NEFZ)? al I find: “In the electric drive, the CUPRA Leon e-HYBRID five-door car with no local emissions reaches up to 68 kilometres (according to NEDC, range according to WLTP: 52 km). The CUPRA Leon Sportstourer e-HYBRID reaches 67 km (according to NEDC, WLTP: 52 km)” In total, the whole thing only makes sense if you can dust the 4500 euros with dust. Currently, the CUPRA Leon ST is of course in the list of eligible vehicles, but changes next year? Can you help me further? Thank you!

  • Cupra buy after leasing?

    Hello together, Since November 2019 I have been running a Leasing with a Cupra 290 PS EZ 11/2019 with the 7-speed DSG. Leasing end will then November 2022 with 70,000 km. I was at the beginning of the opinion that I will return my car after the end of the lease, because I like the i30n very much, especially the Facelift model with manual transmission. However, I am currently considering whether I should buy the Cupra after all. I have always driven the car warm and cold until now, had never problems and had to go through the maintenance plus package I had to pay nothing for wear parts during service. The only two flaws I see are once the lack of seat heating and the connection with Apple Car Play sometimes breaks off, but does not occur often. My concerns are only what will come to me from 70k km since the car will have no guarantee as early as November 2021. How reliable are the last Cupra models of the model 5F? How high are the costs for wear parts? Can I consider the maintenance plus package Buy the car or should I give it back? Short to the figures: Total value of the car after deduction Discount: 30k Mtl. Leasing rate without maintenance plus package: 372€ After 36 months: 13,392€ Difference 16,608€ There may be another balance out because of the actual value after loss of value, but I know too little about it. Thanks already in advance.

  • Seat Leon ST purchase advice

    Hello together, I need n advice especially regarding the classification and development of the prices. I am currently driving n 2008er leon 1P with 125 ps and am very satisfied. However, in 6 months there is to be offspring. Therefore it should be something bigger, the octavia is too boring for me so I am looking for a leon st. Logically as young and few kilometers ?? Have looked around me a little for almost 16tsd you get 2-3 years old cars with 30-50000 km is at least my Eind Since I want to switch to a bigger car and not lose any power, I tend very strongly to the 140/150 ps petrol variant. The 16000 are my maximum budget… but I have now seen that I probably only have to put 2-3 tsd on it to get into the range of annual cars with significantly less kilometers. I would have to finance the difference then, which I don’t really want. Would you still strongly advise me or is n 2-3 years old leon with less than 45 000 also absolutely iO and I can save myself the financing? Are the prices I mentioned so correctly classified from your point of view or is it for example with the 2-3 years old cars still significantly cheaper? As said I have in principle still 6 months time, but also does not want to miss a good offer what I see now and in the end have to make n panic buy. Therefore I ask for your assessment so that I know whether I should strike spontaneously or rather stay patient. Thank you for your opinions in advance

  • Seat sound system

    Hello dear community, I need quick information from you regarding the Seat Soundsystem, as I want to decide today or tomorrow for the purchase of a new car, which already stands at the dealer! I actually wanted to have with soundsystem, as I like to hear some louder music in the car. Unfortunately, this car only has the normal system, but with DAB receiver. Is that enough? Or should I look for another car?
