Just bought a new Leon. I have a few issues I could do with some guidence with.

It won't lock with either the fob or the physical key. I only have one key and I dont think it's the Orginal one. I ha e tried a few ideas from YouTube about pairing it but none of them worked.

Issue 2 the stop/start feature doesn't work and I get a message saying its using too much power?

Issue 3 when listening to DAB radio if I turn the back window heater on it mutes the radio.

Issue 4 the front parking sensor shows an elimination mark and doesn't seem to work.

Could they all be battery related?

Oh and my boot latch just stopped working but I have seen a video on how to fix that.
 
Boy I hope you at least didn't pay much for the car based on this and your earlier post..

I'm not a mechanic, but my first guess would be to check the alternator, for the issues you have while the car is turned on (issue 2, 3 and maybe 4).
For the parking sensors, it may just be that one of them is at fault, in which case all of them stop working and you get an error on screen.
As for the locks on the car, no idea, maybe its electrical or the locks just failed and need to be replaced.

The battery is unlikely I'd say, but it could have bad voltage.

My suggestionion is that you find a car electrician/mechanic and have a look at the electronics i.e. battery, alternator, ecu fault codes etc..
