thats stupid im sure a dealer can see wether somthing is faulty, iv got loads of warrenty work needed, both headlights full of water, seal on back window leaking, the heater blows cold just above full hot setting and also its got a lumpy idle . ggggrrrrrrr going to take forever to authorise that lot lol
Sorry pal, but its not rubbish.
They need authorisation for certain items as the dealer needs to make sure that they are paid for their labour hours from Seat.
I'm sure one of the dealers on here will confirm this
