Anyone's help with this would be much appreciated as I just don't know what to do next. Vehicle is a Leon TDi 110 SE, 2003 model with 27,000 miles and has been giving the following symptoms:
1. Hesitation when accelerating, feels like the turbo is very laggy.
2. Engine feels like it cuts out for a second when driving at a constant speed
3. Engine will suddenly go into limp mode with accelerating
4. Engine will suddenly drop to idle and not respond to the throttle
5. On over-run there is a flapping type noise - can be heard louder it the air-cleaner box is opened.
6. Seems to have burnt around a litre of oil in the past couple of weeks.
7. Engine will miss then stall after being reved.
So far the dealers have done the following.
1. Changed the MAF (twice - last time in Dec 05)
2. Replaced the coolant temperture sensor
3. Stripped down and cleaned the intake / turbo pipes
4. Replaced the valve that controls the turbo (N75? - the white topped one on the bulkhead)
The car is three weeks out of warranty with the problems having gone on for the best part of two years and getting worse so you can understand I am pretty cheesed off with both SEAT and this car.
