Windscreen

Has anyone had issues with the quick windscreen demist (physical) button beside the steering wheel? I've previously posted about the windscreen not demisting fully and using a special glass cleaner has helped. When I've pressed the quick demist button yesterday nothing happens apart from it illumina...

That's never appeared on my infotainment screen. It looks like a fault, don't let the dealership fob you off

Can't open bonnet

Hello

More problems!

I've pulled the lever under the dash and kept the driver's door open. The bonnet pops up but I can find any mechanism underneath to release it.

Has anyone else had this problem. I've run out of washer fluid so I desperately need to refill it.

Thanks

Re: Windscreen doesn't demist fully

I have had the aircon on ans and it made no difference. Took the car to Cupra today and they said there is nothing wrong with the aircon! I've bought some invisible glass spray as per a previous reply. I'll let you know if this solves the problem. Why can't they have heated front windscreens like so...

Re: Windscreen doesn't demist fully

I've never had to demist a car windscreen manually, surely there must be a problem. I'll post what the garage say as maybe it's a fault with some vehicles.

Windscreen doesn't demist fully

I've had the born for 6 months and anytime the temp drops the aircon/heating doesn't fully defog the windscreen. There's always a light film of condensation visible. It means it's difficult to see out at night when oncoming traffic lights hit the screen. Has anyone else had this problem as I've trie...

Re: Keeps calling roadside assistance

Cupra Stockport have finally agreed to replace the control unit after 2 weeks of complaining . I'd advise anyone else with the issue to request a replacement too

Noisey Brakes

I've had my Born for 2 months now and recently the brakes have started to make a loud squeaking/ rubbing noise when the car comes to a standstill. The brakes work fine, it's just that they were initially silent. The noise occurs all the time no matter if it's wet or dry. Is everyone else's brakes si...
