Have you taken it to a SEAT dealer or independent garage? Maybe get a second opinion? You sure you haven’t put wrong fuel in?

It happens rarely but the fuel you put in may be contaminated, possibly with water. Check with the petrol station to see if anyone has reported similar issues.

I would take it to a SEAT dealer, or another independent, VAG or SEAT specialist. Google them in your area to see who has the best reputation. Just connecting it to diagnostic and then saying just drive It sounds like a little bit of a copout to me, they should be performing more manual diagnostic checks on the fuel system than that, a diagnostic machine won’t tell you everything.
