General Comments

The Seat Leon 1.6 S family cars faults are endless. Most of them relate to electrical faults like lights, indicators, horn, central locking, dash lights, stereo, electric windows etc., that have all been faulty at one point or another on my car. I'm amazed at how this car also has varying degrees of water purification i.e. it gets filtered through all the water tight seals directly into the car - I thought about setting up my own SEAT filtered water company. I thought the best one was the pollen filter needing re-sealed as this tends to fall off and let in water (SEAT DO KNOW ABOUT THIS FAULT) or the door seals constantly failing to keep out water (SEAT ALSO KNOW ABOUT THIS ONE). Or how about having to get the throttle cleaned out every six months because it clogs to the point that the car revs erratically. It also suffers from leaking water into the front lights (SEAT KNOW ABOUT THIS ONE AS WELL).

... P.S. Don't expect SEAT to sort any of this out for free - as you would expect of manufacturing faults!
