i own a seat ibiza fr TDI, ive never had a car for such a short period of time with the amount of problems im having. basically i've owned the car since MAY 2012.


ive had 2 engine mounts costing £230 not inc. labour, been through around 3 boost pipes costing £240 not inc. labour. I then had to pay for a new side-mount inter cooler which cost 200 quid not inc. labour. with all that happening i thought it was the end of it then the other day my turbo went dont know how much that will cost me yet. the car is remapped and i want it putting back to standard but cant get in touch with the person who maped the car:wtf:. i know for a fact it was a **** generic map he used. ANYONE GOT ANY SUGGESTIONS WHAT TO DO WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED, cheers????:shrug:

2 engine mounts: - are these seperate engine mounts or the same one both times?
boost pipes.. you say you have gone through 3 boost pipes, what exactly happened to these? are these OEM or aftermarket?
Why did you replace the SMIC?

seperate engine mounts, and the same one twice which was oem then i bought a sfs performance one and thats on there now, the smic had to be replaced because the entry point into it was snapped off.
