Hi All,
For starters, I am new here! I don't drive a Seat, I drive a 2014 Golf GT 2.0 TDI DSG (pictured in profile) - my sister however drives a 2013 Seat Ibiza 1.4 TOCA 3dr. Since she recently purchased it, it has a loud knocking sound from what seems to be from the drivers side, It is prominent when going over roads that are uneven (eg - ones that aren't full of potholes but bumpy roads). It is a loud knocking sound and I have no idea where its coming from or why its there. In potholes it doesn't seem to be as loud weirdly, only when driving constantly, is it dangerous for her to drive it? Also, her MOT advisory says 'Play in steering rack inner joint(s)' and when she turns the wheel quickly from left to right there is a clunking sound, what could this be? Lastly, (long post i know!) what is the service interval for her cambelt change, I'm thinking its 40,000 or 4 years but could someone confirm?
Thank you!
