Have a butch at www.seatcupra.net all the SEAT infor you will ever need.
I have had some problems with the Bluetooth working in the car. I got the Bluetooth extra but the software on my phone needs upgrading. Apart from that I have only had one rattle in the back speaker but that has been sorted out by the dealer.
Really am enjoying the power and steering, and to top it off the 44 MPG I am getting.
How have you found the TFSI so far

Hi,
I got a 2.0 TDI Sport last month.
Very impressed with it. Only done 3k - so far so good. Its a good comprimise between a sporty hatch with tidy handling and a mile-muncher for the motorway.
And I love the torque! First diesel I've owned and I'm still getting used to changing up beofre the redline to get the most out of it
My bluetooth was a pain too but I got a cradle after a few weeks and hence its hard-wired to the car now.
Niggles - Wonky trim on the passenger door and a rattle from the speaker I think. Oh, and the steering rack creaks at low speed. I got the "they all do that Sir" from the SEAT dealer

I get the low speed steering creak too
Yep and still trying to get access to the headunit...
How? THe guy who fitted my cradle had been warned it was difficult to get the stereo out but he did it in 10secs flat, used a set of Audi keys if that helps?
I've tried a couple of times with a set of Audi keys with no luck...time for another go...

Are you using the two rectangular holes at the bottom of the unit?
I sell them. I drive a 1.6 Reference as my current car. Does creak at low speed like you say, theyre not just fobbing you off Have driven all engines in them now, except the TFSI, everytime we've got one on its way to us, it gets sold before it arrives! Must say MUCH prefer the drive of the NEW Leon, but looks of the old one for now(CupraR). Lovely cars to drive though.
Creaky Steering !!!
Wow I didn't realise the problem was so widespread. I bought a 2.0TDiS in October. The Steering rack was replaced and the problem was cured for about a month. Thing is, it's come back again and now I'm informed that SEAT have a new design rack available to fix this problem. (Will be changed under warranty)
Hopefully this time the problem will be permanently fixed.
Don't let the dealers fob you off with "They all do it" get it replaced under warranty.
