freetrack

I'm looking for some advice on my 2008 Seat Altea Freetrack. I had a little issue on it a few months ago where above 65mph at a constant speed (not when accelerating or breaking) the car would be unstable, it would feel like a cross winds on the rear of the car at random times and random pushing...

Hello Guys, I paying around in my mind on a Possible project. I do not have much experience with SEAT vehicles so I would appreciate some help here. Are the 2010 Leon parts like engine, DSG box with all the bits and pieces including dashboard clocks etc. Can be fitted to a Altea XL or...

I share a driveway with some other houses and we had a major dumping of snow last night of around 4-5 inches or so. While walking the dogs i watched my neighbour in his landrover freelander make several attemps at trying to pull out of the end of the drive on to the road before giving...

Well... its finally happened. After 28,000 trouble free miles... the dpf light has come on. Started with an intermittent emissions warning light which has been off for ages... the came on again the other day. So I booked car in for service. Then yesterday the DPF light came on. Tried...

I have only had the car a week and decided to check the video screen out in the back. Video works fine but i cant get any sound through (havent checked the infrared as i have no headphones) the speakers. I assume i press CD/Aux on the head unit but nothing happens, it just says NO CD?? I...

Hi All I'm lookign for one a freetrack diesel, the prices seem to be dropping at the mo' so even more interested! Is there anything I should look out for? I've heard about issues with the Haldex system, but what else could be worth looking out for? Cheers Will

My Freetrack is fitted with Pirelli Pzero Rosso's which are predominatly road tyres, can anyone suggest an alternative?

Hi!, we want to upgrade front brakes to a Altea Freetrack. Do you think that GTI MKV performance brakes will fit? Does the Freetrack shares brake component design with another VW car for reference, or platform? Thank you :D

Has anyone fitted front parking sensors to a freetrack. My wife loves the car but being a shortie cant see how far she is away when parking. Can anyone help please:cry:

Just noticed that the Freetrack is no longer listed on the seat.co.uk website. Anyone know any more about this? Matt.

Hi just picked up my new car on Thursday but noticed there is only a user manual for the radio and entertainment system but no information on the car. Has the dealer omitted to give me this or do they not get issued with any more documentation? For instance how does the cruise control work etc...

Hello, Just been away on hols and the car has developed a rather annoying THUD which appears to come from the front passenger wheel area. It is more more noticable over harsh bumps at low speed <40mph. It did do it the odd time before but now it is a lot more common. Could something...

Does anyone have any experience / recommendations regarding a way of reducing roll in my 2008 170bhp diesel Freetrack. The suspension feels hard, but the car leans alarmingly through corners and around roundabouts far more so than my wife's C-Max fitted with sports suspension.

Hi Currently thinking about a freetrack, as a nice upgrade from my MK4 Ibiza FR diesel, can anybody confirm if the updated common rail diesel will come to the freetrack, the Seat press release was a bit vague. Also have any freetrack owners got any tails of joy (or despair):D? Cheers in advance.

Well, with 65000 Mls in under 3 years its time to move on. So i have swapped the SE for a Freetrack. So the question, a good move or not? :clap:

Hi, if there are any Diesel freetrack owners out there, can they tell me is there some transmission vibration when applying power in 5th or 6th at 70ish. We have had the car a few weeks, having had a good test drive, its a 57 plate bought from a Seat dealer. But when we took it on long motorway...

Hi, Just joined and trying to tack down a steel sump guard for a Freetrack TDi, which after months of trying to find come across it on a Seat france site in english. Don't know if it's available in the uk though? Part No.5P8072750 If not does anyone know if there is an after market...

Just wondered because I've yet to see another on the road and don't see any posts from other owners? I've had mine 9 months after chopping in the Leon FRTDi for the bigger car and have no complaints Still has the 170hp diesel and handles well for a big beast - plenty space for the wife and...

I have enjoyed an FR TDI for the last 2 years and am looking to change it. The FR has too much torque for a 2WD car, it just spins the wheels if over enthusiastic in the dry, or AT ALL TIMES in the wet. I see the fourtrack seems to have the same engine, so is it as much fun ? And is the...
