Hi all Got a Ibiza EcoTSI. Today after heavy rain we had water dripping from the rear view mirror. Anyone come across this? The car does NOT have any sunroof. I'm thinking it must be coming in from the front windscreen or the roof aerial. Anyone suggest best way to investigate? Thanks Rich

Good afternoon, I’m an American living in Mexico. In January I purchased a new Cupra Ateca. It’s been a pleasure so far. This past Saturday I noticed gasoline leaking at the right rear. It was literally dripping off the bottom of the charcoal canister. Considering the car has 7 years bumper to...
