Cupra Born free on Motorbility with no up front payment

Hi All, A friend of mine has recently had a Motorbility car update and they are now offering the Cupra Born V1 with no up front payment, the V2 with around £700 up front and the V3 with just over £2000 up front. I might be wrong but I think you also get a home charger installed as part of the offeri...

Re: No jack with the Born as standard?

No jack or tyre foam with mine when purchased in December 2022. I called them up once and asked about it, I was told it doesn't come with a jack as the tyres are run-flats. I have inspected the tyres and can't see any designation to show they are run-flat tyres, unless I am being blind?

Re: Massive battery recall check - TPI 93Q2

Now that I know it's the car at fault (probably caused by the battery work) that's exactly what I plan to do. Unfortunately being Cupra they don't have any available appointments for weeks if I need a courtesy car. This has left me in a bit of a pickle considering it only went in originally to fix ...

Re: Massive battery recall check - TPI 93Q2

I appreciate that it's an awful situation and there's no question that public charging infrastructure isn't all it could be, but your first plan of action should be to get that car back to the dealer as quickly as possible, get a loan car from them, and get it fixed! Now that I know it's the car at...

Re: Massive battery recall check - TPI 93Q2

Your post confuses me. You had a battery cell/module replaced which has now made your car faulty. You are unable to charge it from your low power home charger, took your family away and are surprised high power chargers are not working either, but it’s the infrastructures fault? Or have I got it co...

Re: Massive battery recall check - TPI 93Q2

My car recently went in to have the panoramic roof roller blind fixed. As part of the visit they updated the software and the receipt also says "S-Replace battery module". NOW WE HAVE BIG PROBLEMS! Problem: The car came back from Cupra fully charged, however the first time connected it to ...

Heating stuck on high - Clima not responding!

Last night I put the heaters on high as I was driving home with a pizza in the footwell. Today my wife has taken the car to pick up our baby grandson and the heating is stuck on high. The clima controls are not responding and are showing as off even though the fans are on the setting I had them on l...

Panoramic sunroof shade derailed

Hi All, I’m thinking this is going to need a service visit but never heard of it happening before. Maybe because the panoramic roof is an extra and not too common. Anyway I swiped the button to slide the shade from closed > open when I heard a crinkling noise. When I looked up, instead of the shade ...

Re: Update 3.2.1 now available - TPI 93S2

Based on what I have read here and elsewhere there doesn't seem to be any real benefit that justifies the hassle of taking your car in. Infotainment annoyances aside everything else works fine so I don't think I'll bother unless Cupra specifically contact me.
