Had a slight scare with the car yesterday, had been using it fine all day and then went out to go to the shops and the EPC light and engine management light was on. Absolutely no power either, would press the accelerator pedal and the car would do absolutely nothing and was also shaking violently. I also had a start stop error on the dash. Most dealerships that I phoned which were open due to the current situation were extremely unhelpful so managed to phone SEAT assistance who sent someone out within an hour. Guy knew straight away with the symptoms that the car was having that the throttle body had went and that's exactly what it was, replaced it right at my house and I was good to go, he actually said it was quite a common problem and the part he replaced it with was slightly more robust and durable.
Just curious to see if anyone else has had the same problem and also posting for anyone who might be having the same issue as that could very well be what it is. Still find it very strange for it to happen on a 1 and half old car with 13k miles but suppose anything can happen.
