Re: Fault lights flashing up on driver screen

If anyone gets the same, it turned out to be wiring in the steering column that was tugging when turning the wheel. Fixed by the dealer. Cupra Hull seem really good.

Fault lights flashing up on driver screen

Just recently I have noticed on my Born that periodically the various warning lights will all come on and go off again within a couple of seconds.

Re: Considering a purchase
