SEAT maintenance programme
8SEAT maintenance programmeGeneral informationThis maintenance programme will inform you of the w ork that should be
carried out regularly on your vehicle in order to ensure th e safety, reliability
and durability required.
Using the “vehicle id entification” data or the data in this document, will
ensure the correct spare parts for your vehicle are sp ecified in case of repairs,
for many years after the initial purchase.
We recommend that you keep this maintenance progr amme with the vehicle
documents. The record of inspections carried out is on e of the essential
requirements for exercising your rights under warranty.
The maintenance programme shows the date of deli very, and this indicates
the starting date of the vehicle warranty.Maintenance ProgrammeThe SEAT maintenance programme consists of the dif ferent inspection serv-
ices which are carried out according to the time since the vehicle purchase or
the mileage.
Each Inspection Service, as well as any additional oper ation required already
has a pre-established work time. This will allow you to know the total cost of
the service beforehand.
The SEAT Service Centre network is equipped with modern works hop tech-
nology and well-trained specialists. Many SEAT Service C entres offer different
service packages at special prices.
Adverse conditionsThe Service Centre “service advisor” will inform you o f any necessary addi-
tional work within the intervals defined by the Inspection S ervice, according
to the conditions and environment in which the vehicle i s used. For example,
an oil change where the vehicle is used only for frequent short journeys or is
subject to extreme temperatures. Likewi se, when the vehicle is used in dusty
conditions the air, dust and pollen filter cartridges must be changed more
often and the timing belt checked.Diesel fuelThe Service Centre “service advisor” can provide information about which
countries use fuel with a high sulphur content. In th ese cases, the oil must be
changed every 7,500 km (5,000 miles).
Caution

cannot be driven using biodiesel.

DIN EN 14214 (FAME) standard consult your Serv ice Centre.
•

Other services available15
Other services availableLegal Inspection ServiceThe legal inspections must be carried out at the intervals
prescribed.Many countries have legal requirements obliging owner s to have their vehicle
tested at specified intervals for safety for the user an d for other traffic, as well
as ensuring that vehicle exhaust emissions meet the co untries' regulations.
These revisions must be overseen by officially certified c entres.
Your Authorised Service Centre can inform you about th e inspections required
by law, and can check your vehicle in the course of an Inspection Service. This
will save you both time and money.
The Authorised Service Centre can also carry out the in spections required by
law at the client's request.
Even if you do not wish to take advantage of this service and dec ide to take
your car to an officially certified centre for this check, we re commend that you
speak to the person in charge of your Authorised Ser vice Centre first.
This person will be able to inform you of any points that require attention so
that your car does not fail the test and have to be re-tested.Approved spare partsAll parts of your vehicle have been approved by SEAT , especially those parts
on which your safety depends. For this reason, the parts used in the
Programmed Inspection Services or in any vehicle repair must correspond
exactly to the manufacturer-defined r equirements. The approved SEAT spare parts have been designed especially for your ve
hicle. For this reason, we
recommend that Genuine approved SEAT spares are always u sed.
In the Authorised SEAT Service Centres you will find the most important
approved spare parts. If in an exceptional case, the nec essary parts are not in
stock, they can, in general, be obtained swiftly.
The SEAT Service Centres in the EU provide a 24 mont h warranty
1) for
Approved Spare parts from the date they are fitted or sold. It is therefore
advisable to retain the original invoice from the Autho rised Service Centre as
proof of the existing warranty.
More information about this may be obtained from your Au thorised Service
Centre.
Approved SEAT exchange partsThe approved SEAT exchange parts, conforming to th e manufacturer’s
requirements, constitute an additional service at your di sposal, offering you
the possibility to update entire assemblies, the mos t common being: the
short engine block, gearboxes, cylinder heads, control units, electrical
elements, etc.
Of course these are Approved parts and, as they have the same class as the
manufacturer parts, they share the same SEAT approved s pare parts warranty.
However, these parts are considerably cheaper as they are f actory-recondi-
tioned used parts. Keep the invoice for the approved S EAT exchange parts as
proof of the start of the existing warranty.1)The warranty is not available for all export mark ets. For more information, please ask
your Authorised SEAT Service Centre.
