Driving home yesterday i noticed a weird crackling/vibrating noise coming from somewhere around the center console and dash. I assumed it was the rattling of my music or just the bumpy road so i thought not much of it. Shortly after, just as i was pulling onto my road my dashcam turned off...

I am looking at getting a DSG Leon Cupra 280 (likely under 60k miles) and am wondering what are the ‘common issues/faults’ with these cars? Is there any specific maintenance that is recommended at certain milestones to keep everything running smoothly (on top of your regular service, engine...

Thought it might be handy to keep a record of all the faults and or niggles people have had with their cars as a resource and reference point to see if there are common design flaws/faults? Try and include symptoms (what you noticed), cause and what the remedy was (if you found out)...
