Hello! I will probably buy a Seat Leon 5F soon (FL/new order) and am still a bit unsure about the equipment. Currently the configuration looks like this: – FR 1.4 TSI with 125hp – Nevada White – ACC – roof sky black – 18″ Performance rims – Media Package (consisting of: navigation system “normal” incl. mapcare, rear camera, SEAT Sound System, SEAT Full Link, spare wheel) – Multifunction camera PLUS (tracking assistant, driving light assistant, traffic signer – Austria package for FR (full LED headlights, parking aid front + rear, electronics package) – normal fabric seats – winter package With the current Navi (standard) there is apparently a problem with the SD cards. Does the Navi+ also have any difficulties in this regard? The data should be stored there on the hard drive… What is the audio technical situation? I would like to have the Seat Soundsystem or possibly the upcoming Beats Audio System installed. . Apparently the Navi+ has a better amplifier in connection with the Beats audio system. Does anyone have more info about it? How do you find the DCC? Is it worth an extra charge of 840€? lg and many thanks

Hello, I have the following problem with my Seat Leon, model 1m, built in 2004, 1.9TDI, 110kw/150ps with 193,000km (no all-wheel drive). The braking performance is extremely bad compared to all cars I have known and even driven so far. Even with full braking it is not possible for me to push the car into the ABS. Only with brakes from very low speed (e.g. 30 zone) the braking effect is acceptable. eläge Jurid) is also anything but beautiful (see pictures). However, a free workshop gave me the information that the braking performance should still be completely sufficient despite the bad performance pattern. To my surprise I also got new TÜV this month, contrary to my expectations. Below are the results of the braking performance: Operating brake: Front left: 300 [daN] Front right: 280 [daN] Back left: 180 [daN] Back right: 180 [daN] Brake BBA: 51 % parking brake: Left: 130 [daN] Right: 140 [daN] Deceleration FBA: 15 % The question now arises how I can repair my brakes. I fear that only the change of brake discs and pads will bring nothing in the long term, as the discs will probably form a rim again after a very short time. Could it be on the brake calipers, vacuum pump or also the brake power amplifier?

Hello, my Leon Cupra BJ 2007 spins the speed since the latest. As soon as you walk off the gas, no matter if you are coupled or uncoupled, the car still gives gas independently. So the speed decreases more slowly when you couple, than normal, partly still hangs something etc. The car is connected accordingly later on from the gas than you actually do with the pedal. The speed is sometimes not at 800 rpm, but partly at 1000 rpm, hangs there for several seconds, It’s always a bit different, but not as it should be. If the car is cold, it actually runs correctly. The warmer it gets, the more the error occurs and after 30min drive it is “the worst”. Sometimes you stand at the traffic light and at once it regulates slightly up to 1500 rpm and then down again. Had the car in the meantime in the workshop. The throttle valve was removed and cleaned, but that didn’t have anything to do with it. The workshop doesn’t really know any advice, so I ask again here. Errors are: P1093 Fuel measurement system Bank 1 2 Misfunction implausible signal Error Test cycle complete sporadic error Error would cause no lightening of a warning lamp P0507 Idle speed control Speed exceeded over set value upper limit Error Test cycle complete sporadic error Error would cause no lightening of a warning lamp De r P0507 is probably gone after the redevelopment of the throttle valve, but the workshop does not know any advice about the P1093 either. Has anyone had an idea or the problem before? What can be definitely excluded or what can one narrow down? Thanks already and many greetings!

So friends of the sun, have read a lot of topics for a long time and it is soon time with us, offspring is on and d the Hyundai Getz wants to be replaced. Many cars we have looked at and also test drives, from combi to minivans (Meriva , Golf plus) But we are most likely to agree the golf class. And since we have not yet exceeded the 30 (not misunderstood) we would want to have a car which is something sporty and family-friendly. So the Seat Leon is very interesting. Is the 5F enough for a small family? Enough space for everything? The next question would be the motorization. 1.2 110 hp or 1.4 125 ps? We drive 60% city 20 land and rest highway and mostly quieter. But sometimes also something with steam. Is the extra charge for 1.4er, extra power worth it? And is the 1.2er with 110 too much overgrown and has hardly any reserves? Am not a professional in the matter of cars and engine, but all the statements I have taken up so often

Hello, I’m about to get a Leon ST Cupra 300 4Drive and I’m looking for a fancy wintering alufelgen. I wanted to buy the original Seat Leon Cupra winter complete wheels Alufelgen bright black 235/35 R19. There are also original winter complete wheels in 18 inch 225/40 R18 in silver, which I don’t like optically on a pirineos grey Leon. I like the original 19 inch really good. But I have to remember that in winter the rims with the tire combination too hard How are your experiences? I looked around in the accessories after 18 inches rims and there are so many not in 7.5×18. In the COC it says that only 7.5×18 are allowed for 18 inches!

Hey guys, I got a Seat Leon a year ago, but I’ve been having coolant problems since the beginning. I stayed on the highway twice – once because of a defective water pump and once because of a broken hose. The coolant either disappears without seeing anything in the engine compartment, or it collects under the balance tank. I’ve already changed the container. Since my heater doesn’t work (cold, warm, not working). ) and my windows fogged from the inside and left behind a greasy, light film, ChatGPT said that it could be due to the heat exchanger. Does anyone know about it? Thanks in advance!

Hey, I’m in total despair and really don’t know any more. Maybe one of you has an idea. I drive a Seat Leon Cupra 280 from 2014 with 6-speed manual transmission. A month ago I made my clutch new with ZMS, clutch disc, pressure plate and central release. After the assembly it started that the clutch did not separate any more. Everything aired several times and also here no improvement. Air came out but no more. If the engine is off, it can be al If it is on, then no gear goes in or out. The clutch does not separate wisely. So I removed the gearbox again at the beginning of the week and changed the central trigger again. Also no improvement… As a result I changed the vent valve, the hose to the encoder cylinder and the encoder cylinder itself everything to exclude errors there. Also no improvement. There must be something on the clutch package. When the engine is out, the clutch pedal increases a bit of pressure but also not really. But when the engine is on then the pressure in the pedal is completely gone and if you put it pressure, it stays on the ground. If you put the engine back out, the pressure in the pedal is back again. What else could it be? I’ve already dismantled the gearbox three times and got a little crisis. What else could it be? When the clutch is installed, the K is normally installed. upplungsscheibe centered with the pressure plate and then screwed to the ZMS. Then the central trigger to the gearbox and then everything assembled and ventilated. Clutch set is from Sachs with the manufacturer’s number: 3000 990 350 I am at a loss Thanks already for any help

Moin, I hope someone can help me choose my spare part. The rubber seal of my rear light is broken and I am afraid that there will enter liquid and it just looks very ugly. Therefore I would like to order and install a new rear light with the part number 5F0945207E. – At the article https://www.ebay.de/itm/126562337863 stands “Original Seat Leon LED rear light left outside” with the matching part number in the description – At the article https://www.ebay.de/i tm/126022872653 stands VALEO rear light and in the description OE/OEM reference number(s) 5F0945207E The differences between the two are I think that with the rear light of VALEO no incandescent lamps are installed, which would not be so bad, because I could just take those from the other rear light.My question now: Are these two lights externally identical and in original part quality or how does the price difference of 219€ to 90€ come about? from the outside you can see a difference from the left VALEO rear light to the right SEAT original back light. I like to call every little detail that I should pay attention to. I’m really a noob about that. Retread the back light and replace incandescent lamps I can do, but which parts I need exactly sometimes I find difficult.

Greetings, Since March 2024 I have a squeak at the front right. In February 2025 I was back for inspection, since the reason was called the bearing of the stabilizer, which would cause these sounds. Then I changed the stabilizer bar with bearings, but it continues to squeak. Is the cause perhaps rather the crossbar? If it has strong minus degrees outside, it is extremely loud, and as soon as it gets warmer, you can hear it only quietly. I am slow with my Latin on the End and don’t want to continue to exchange parts that are not. It mainly occurs on bad roads and cobblestones. In August 2023 the chassis, dome bearing and coupling rod was re-established in a workshop. Thank you for your feedback.

Hello, the Seat Leon FR of my girlfriend is year 2014 and has traffic sign recognition. Unfortunately, this works more than inadequately with the Leon. The traffic signs are only displayed very sporadically times. I know this from my Octavia which also has traffic sign recognition just differently. Is there a trick or trick that I have to pay attention to at the Leon? Or is it just the way to the dealer?
