I have just purchased a 1.4 tsi mk2 leon. I noticed it was very noisy on idle.
Dealer initially diagnosed "cam follower problem" and I left them with the car.
After help from Seat UK they said it was just a noisy fuel pump [which is driven from the camshaft on these engines]. They said they replaced the pump.
The diesel noise is still there and everyone thinks I have a diesel car.
Does anyone know if all these engines are this noisy. Dealer says they have reported this to Seat UK. I cannot belief the VW group would allow such a noisy engine to go into production. Anyone heard of a bad batch of fuel pumps maybe?
My MK1 1.6 petrol was very quiet on idle.
