Mine doesn't seem to be doing it ATM come to think of it.. haha strange.
I noticed it a few months back. There were people talking about it on a forum so thought and come and have a look if you guys had been suffering.
I'll keep an eye on it.
Cheers

Very very nice! Looks so mean in Black! Any mods planned? Spraying the wheels darker?

Re: Cars into VW...
Bringing up an old post but oh well. The 180PS and 150PS 1.4TSI engines found in the Ibiza range have also got the squeaking problem. A Seat Tech owns a Boc like mine had this issue and fitted the new designed pump. it was fine for a while but has just started again. He's on 11k miles now. Not sure ...

Re: Cars Without a Rear Wiper

Re: New Polo GTI - Scirocco Killer ?
The mk4 was a great car for power and economy (200BHP 280lb/ft) Was not great for rattles and handling and uneven tire despite having tracking sorted numerous times. The new one ticks all the box’s this time. Economy has certainly improved now I’ve put more miles on her. Gave the car its first prope...

I think this was the article my dad read:

Intersting comment about the whole VAG range in the comments section.

Re: New Polo GTI - Scirocco Killer ?
“Seat owners ALWAYS get arsey” I’m not getting arsey i’m just disagreeing by saying that the new mk5 Ibiza is a quality car, and a leap over the older model. I understand that there are different levels and cost savings etc between the brands. Since I have owned a Skoda, two Seats and have regular a...

Re: New Polo GTI - Scirocco Killer ?
I agree the mk4 Ibiza was not as good quality as the polo of the same time (my sister has the polo and I drive it often). I also had a fabia VRS and this was as good if not better than the polo. The polo i’m referring too is not the brand new shape but the one that is being fazed out (hers is an 09 ...

Re: New Polo GTI - Scirocco Killer ?
And you know this... how? I know style is down to personal preference but since all the switchgear engine, drive train etc is all VW how can you make that assumption about the ibiza. Its solidly put together with soft touch dash etc. I just cant see where the £1305 extra will go? (comparing standard...

Oh and starting at 18k WOW..

Re: New Polo GTI - Scirocco Killer ?
I have the ibiza cupra with 180ps engine and 7 speed DSG. To clear a few things up: It is fast (they are making 190BHP+ on the rollers) tehy weight 1175kg I'm sure it will easily stay with a TSI roc up to 100 and TBH what’s the point in it being faster after that. I doubt it will get 47mpg since its...

Re: My new motor.
Booked in at Awesome end of this month for some eibach pro street coilovers. I'll choose a nice ride hight there and then. The Ap Racing (Seat Sport) calipers were an optional extra (£1100) but you get a spare full sized alloy as as a space saver or normal steel wheel will not fit over the brakes. Y...

My new motor.
Joined the site as the Scirocco 1.4TSI shares the same engine. I wanted to have a nosey to see what you guys are doing with it and what remaps your using. Anyway my Ibiza Bocanegra arrived on Thursday. Here is the spec and a few shots. What you you think? 180PS 1.4TSI Engine 7-Speed DSG Convenience ...

Re: Should i change to 170
Are there any mechanical differences between the 140 and the 170 other than a different ECU map? On the older 1.9PD diesel engines there were (on the Ibiza seat range anyways) a 130BHP (FR) version and a 160BHP (Cupra) version. The difference here was not just a map. On the 160 you got a different G...
