SEAT Tarraco

The seven-seat SUV at the top of the range, on MQB and mechanically a Škoda Kodiaq and Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace — so those two carry most of its written diagnosis. Four-wheel-drive versions use a Haldex coupling rather than a locking centre differential, so a traction complaint is a coupling and control-unit question. The plug-in hybrid drives the front axle only, which surprises people on a car that looks like a four-wheel drive.

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.
