cooling

Hey everyone, I have a Leon Cupra MY 19 with some pretty weird interior heating/cooling issues - or at least I think they're issues. During summer when the temperature is around 30C outside and the car is sitting in the sun for most of the day, I air it out and switch on the A/C. Now I know...

Hi all, I’ve noticed when I get out of the car I can hear a slight humming noise. Investigated further and I’ve recorded a video of the noise and where it’s coming from / connected to. This is happening when the car is off, on both short and long journeys. Is this normal? As you can probably...

Hi all, My girlfriend has an Ibiza Cupra 2011, and just the other day the fan stayed on after turning the car off. It will not go off until either, the battery dies, or I disconnect the battery. Iv taken it to the local VAG Garage and they have said it is the Cooling Fan Relay and that it would...

Hi all, Thanks for looking into this post. I have come across the problem with cooling in my 1.8t 2006 ibiza fr. The car started to burst the coolant from the cooling reservoir when stationary in traffic during the summer. I am doing very short journeys so i am not desperate to fix it but it...

Recently I got did the slow speed resistor mod because I never had my fans running when at temperature in hot weather. *(my a/c has a leak so cant test the slow speed using the a/c button on the climate)* I tested the fans briding the 1-2 and 2-3 pins on the rad thermo switch, slow speed works...

Hi there, It seems to me Cupra does have a grill near foglights. I was wondering if this is brake duct for taking fresh air into brakes? Does anyone know? Thanks.

I've just had my (cam belt) water pump and thermostat changed along with fresh coolant and now my car seems to take ages to warm up. Driving home from work last night the water temp needle never moved until I gave it a few beans down a by pass and then it rose to the usual 90 degrees (By the...

Hi Everyone, Ive got some odd problems with my car "1.8 20 vt cupra ibiza" First of all, i had just started the car up this morning, it had been on approximatly 30 seconds, i heard some beeping and the little red warning light on my water temp display was flashing, however my water...

I remember back in the day my mates with Renault 5 GT turbos and Escort RS turbos use to let their cars tick over for a few mins after a spirited drive. I went out for a bit of a thrash today (Mrs not in car:funk:) first time ive really give it some in 6 weeks of owning it. I gave it about 2...

right. i recently changed the thermostat in my car as it took quite a while to get up to temperature and when it did it wouldnt keep constant.ever since i fitted the new one the cooling system has been pressurising up.so i decided to buy another one from seat as i thought the one i brought might...

Well I thought I would make a direct thread about the engine fans coming on when you start the car. My LC started doing this a couple weeks ago at 1st I noted it down and forgot about it until I saw this thread http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=247496 I have had it about 5...

Hi Guys, As per a previous thread, I have had my cooling fans, and the fan ecu unit changed. Since theyve been changed, Ive noticed that whenever the fans come on (with or without aircon), it causes vibration through the car and steering wheel. I never noticed this before they were fitted...

Help.:confused: leon cupra20v 1.8t (180) my engine light has come on and in the book it says its something to do with emmissions.. (B*ll*cks):censored:. the code it came out with 17704 P1296 malfunction with cooling system. Fair enough it says this but where do i start looking for my fault...

I'm looking into brake cooling systems for my LCR. I have read lots of posts on VWVortex about fitting hoses and flange etc etc. Basically what i've done so far is to remove the SMIC's and fit a FMIC, remove fog lights and grills. Also I have trimmed the wheel arch liner to allow a better...

I seem to be having a strange problem with pressure build up in the cooling reservoir. I started the car this morning and the red light in the temp guage was lit and temp guage stayed at zero. I checked the coolant level which was below minimum but once I unscrewed thr cap there was pressure...

hi having a few problems but it might take me a while to explain firstly we are talking about a seat toledo 2002 1.9 tdi 110bhp i was getting drips under the car also it was using water and me and the mechanic attributed to a blocked radiator worn water pump or headgasket damage. So I...

Car was sat while i was taking some pictures- and the car just nudged past the thicker line after 90. Is that 100? I think at that point the fans did kick in, and switched off when it dipped below the thick line again. I was always under the impression that these VAG cars pretty much stuck to...

Somthing is up with the cooling van on my Leon FR tdi. I am guessing the sensor is knackered and thinks the car is still hot as the fans are on constant. Obviously this will drain the battery pretty quickly. Could you tell me where the fuse is for the fans, location and number? Or if the...
