SEAT Ibiza (2002 - 2009) 1.9TDi Sport 5d Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
In their own words
I just wanted something small with a economical engine with some power that's why I went for the pd130 130bhp diesel. I don't have an problems with this car but what I do hate is the ride quality it's terrible and I could understand bad ride quality if it meant good handling but handling wasn't much good. It wasn't terrible it understeer under acceleration but that was down to having a heavy diesel engine in a small car and all that torque through the front wheels causing it to lose traction made worse after I remapped the ecu for more power. Biggest issue I had with handing was it didn't feel very stable at height speeds so didn't have to much confidence in it. I know a different suspension set up with better tires would help but as standard it wasn't much good
How reliable do you find the car?
Got a vibration from the engine one mechanic says injectors, other says engine mounts and another says flywheel so don't know who to believe. Other than that I just had to replace the rocker cover due to leak and abs doesn't always work so can leave you sliding down the roadDoes the car do everything you expected it to do?
