Hi folks
Been a massive SEAT fan for a while now and up until May, loved my 07' Leon FR TDI. Thanks to this forum, got my injectors changed and picked up numerous other tips. But then, following a dodgy repair by the local dealer, my fuel pump gasket failed, which caused the pump to drag the contents of the sump through the engine and out the exhaust.
Suffice to say the car has never been the same since, and the DPF light has come on several times, when it has never before.
The dealer has stepped up to the plate and tried to fix it, had the DPF professionally cleaned etc, but the car really doesn't like country roads any more, when I've never had a problem with my driving routes previously.
So feeling a bit sad, I p/exed it the other week, for a bit of a wild card - a black Alfa 159 TI! It's a late 2009 170bhp diesel, with sat nav, leather etc
Very different drive to the Leon (read slower!), but a proper looker and filled with kit.
May be frying pan to fire but had to be done!! If I can remember how to upload pics I might post a couple.
Thanks to all, for advice and tips I've used over the years. It's forums like these that enhance ownership!!
