Hi all. As my local Seat dealer is asking £99 diagnostic fee and then £110 an hour to investigate two OBD errors, I thought I'd post this thread to see if anyone has any ideas or had a similar issue. As soon as I clear them in OBDeleven they immediately reappear again. Car is under 2-year warranty so hopefully a sensor or similar that would be covered? 2018 Leon ST Cupra 300. Thanks in advance 👍 :

If car is under warranty it will be covered by seat. The fees are just something they say to all customers.

You will have to pay diagnostic fee then they will re-imburse if found to be a warranty issue.

They are good at wriggling out of everything though so they will somehow find some small print that means the warranty doesnt apply
