  • Seat Ibiza 1.6 TDI 90PS – Problems after injector replacement

    Hello, My Seat Ibiza bj 2012 with 1.6 TDI had a mistake a few months ago with the injector cylinder 4 and I was advised by a close workshop to replace it. Since it was not quite cheap, I changed it myself with a suitable injector. With the launch crp129 evo device I then coded it with the new code of the injector. Now all cylinders run but it runs generally round with power drop and a lot of stinking exhaust gas. So the nozzle does not work like it What have I done wrong? I have often read that in addition to coding, a learning process is also necessary. How does it work with learning? Thank you and Vg

  • Pushed Thresholds by Carlifter – Safety Problem / Forcefully completely swapped?

    Hello, unfortunately I used the jack wrongly and placed it further in front. Now both sleepers are pressed left and right. On the driver’s side even pushed so far up that the door hit the bottom of the sleeper. This was corrected in the meantime with the hammer so that the door no longer roams. Now it was so that I once did not get a TÜV with it. The follow-up then went through without problems and the last TÜV even on the first time without Now the question, because on demand one or the other thought that the complete threshold would have to be changed. Is this really absolutely necessary? From an optical point of view it doesn’t matter to me and the door does not roam as far as possible. Is it absolutely necessary from a safety technical point of view or for other reasons? I ask for feedback!

  • Consumption values and wear of the Leon Cupra with sporty driving

    Is there no one here who regularly demands his Cupra properly? I drive with my ST every day about 100 kilometers of motorway and since I drive a route on which the train is often free the Cupra must show what it can do (according to Tacho is at 272 km/h close). As for the speed strength I like the Cupra I do very well, I previously drove Audi ́s and BMW ́s with large v8 engines, but as agile as the Cupra was so far none of my vehicles. The car itself does not cause any problems, wo However, I noticed that the seat looks more like a small car in the rear-view mirror and many people miss the speed, this was significantly less with the Audi and the BMW. I have driven about 30 TSD kilometers in the last 10 months and come with the consumption on about 15 to 16 liters. Due to my very trains driving I also needed a set of new front tyres and 2x new brake pads including new brake discs. How are your experiences, if you have your C Upra times demands?

  • Seat Leon 1M 1.8T 180PS Built 2002 Performance missing

    Hello everyone, I’m new to the forum and I’ve already tried to find out a little bit about the search function, but unfortunately I didn’t find anything suitable. To my problem: It’s about a Seat Leon 1M 1.8l Turbo Built 2002 with original 180Ps, engine code AUQ At 165tkm the car has a replacement engine, which now has about 15000tkm on the clock. Since the ATM is installed, the car has less power, I’ve already been in the workshop several times (was installed at a Seat, Audi, VW The loading pressure, etc., were allegedly checked and everything should fit there. However, I have haired on it that the performance is too little and after the second visit the vehicle came on a dynamometer. Result: approx. 160hp. The workshop does not take care of it, however, with the reason that certain tolerances would be normal. Now I have found after that that that the cracker had a hair crack, and have I have the Wow! IQ310 diagnostic device at my disposal for testing Würth. However, I don’t come from the car area and therefore don’t know all too well about it. There are no faults in the system. I can read out different measuring blocks for this car with the corresponding data sets. And one more thing, back when I was always driving into the workshop, went to the workshop. always the engine control light on, there was always a different error and at some point the one no longer went to the lamp. Then I thought well then there is just no error left, but the funny thing is now, if I for example the Lambda probe disconnected, then the engine control light no longer works, but it is stored in the error memory. If I turn on the ignition, then the engine control light lit until I start the engine, just as the battery light stops. One can help me further, drive now almost 1 year with too little power. I pack mountain off with tailwind and police in the neck 215mk/h according to Tacho, registered in the vehicle license are 230km/h. Until then

  • Track hold assistant – set-up behaviour

    Hello, I’m not sure if the lane hold assistant of my Leon BJ 2016 behaves correctly. Before I now annoy a Hängler and drive there quite far, I wanted to describe here how it is with me and ask if others have it the same way. I turned on the assistant and also the central lane guide in the on-board computer. If I drive light curves on the country road, I notice that it is particularly easy, the car wants to go in the right direction. I don’t dare to let go of the steering wheel altogether. Apart from the fact that I get a message after a few seconds (no sound, only message) I feel like driving out of the curve at some point after all. At least the car doesn’t stay really central. On the highway I can easily switch between the tracks without blinking. However, the indicator light becomes orange again and again until I am in a lane again. Sound or message exists What would have to happen? Only change the colour of the indicator lamp or even more? In the steering wheel I feel almost nothing (only road unevenness…) Maybe someone can tell me if that is all? I also bought the assistant rather because of the automatic driving light in the package. It works great by the way!

  • Make a confession of color!

    Good evening dear community! Had ordered a Cupra SC 290 DSG in black on Monday. Now I was able to look at a Cupra St in Alor-blue extensively today. I liked it very much! Sometimes a real color! I usually thought about taking a real color with all my cars before they were told. In the end I always chose black or white! What do you think? I know, the answer to the question can only take place according to my own taste, but I would really like to Interested in what color you would prefer if you now ordered a new Cupra SC. Black or blue? Maybe there is one or the other owner with black or blue Leon. What are your experiences with the color? Would you order them again? I know many questions, but I would be grateful for any personal opinion! Friendly greeting and a sunny weekend.

  • Seat Leon 1M fr 1.9 tdi ARL

    Tomorrow people, And that’s about the Seat Leon 1.9 Tdi as FR With 150 Ps I would have a question about the car and that’s what I had planned to put on the car as a first car. Because my way to my workplace is about 75 kilometers a day, it is supposed to be a diesel. What can you tell bad things about the car? From what mileage should I leave my fingers off the car? Is the car still as expensive as it was when the car was introduced? the consumption concerns so the 1.9 Tdi is indeed a real saving wonder… Besides, the car should also have a particle filter since I am often on the road in larger cities in DE… Have possibly people gained experience with the car including retrofitted DPF? Thanks in advance already for your answers

  • Rear window heating

    The rear window heating can be switched on and off by means of a voice command. After “back window heating is said to be, the command is also confirmed by the vehicle linguistically. The only catch is that the rear window heating is not concerned. If the rear window heating is switched on manually and then the voice command “back window heating is said to be confirmed but not executed. Why is KIA not able to perform this simple test itself and your software Don’t correct it?

  • Radio spins

    Hello you love, I have the Clarion Radio NX501E in my KIA. The touchscreen is not so clear anymore, but you can only see that when the light falls on it. Now the car was for repair (recall from KIA). Since the Radio Total spins. The radio stations are no longer played, and you can no longer tap on a transmitter, it always jumps back and forth and always beeps. Although it is not touched. Does someone know each other and could help me? Or is the Ra I’d be grateful for Hilde. LG Jutta
