SEAT Ibiza

The supermini, on the Polo's platform throughout. Simple enough on the older cars to be a genuinely good first diagnosis, and the 1.2 TSI generation carries the timing-chain stretch that the equivalent Fabia and Polo do — a rattle for a second or two after a cold start, before any code appears.

Information, not instruction

CarGeek is a reference, not a service manual. Its pages are written from public sources and from what other people have found, never from a manufacturer's own service information, so they can be wrong or incomplete for your particular vehicle. Some of what they describe carries real risk: high voltage, fuel under pressure, stored energy, hot and moving parts.

Have anything you intend to act on checked by a trained person against the manufacturer's own procedure for your vehicle. Nothing here replaces that procedure.

What makes one worth reading:

  • The car — make, model, year and engine. The same fault behaves differently on each.
  • What you measured, not only what you replaced.
  • What actually fixed it — or that nothing did, which is worth knowing too.
