Calling 2007 Ibiza owners, help needed please......
Discussion
Hi all
I have a 3 Door 1.4 Ibiza Sport. I love the car but a few weeks ago it went in to have the suspension bushes replaced as well as the anti roll bar.
When checking the car over my father in law suggested that the engine was lower on one side than the other, he is well known as a piss taker so i had a look and it's between 1 - 2 inches lower on the right hand side, there also seems to be a fair bit of forward and backward play.
It went back to the garage on Monday and when the technician first looked at it, he said it did seem low. The garage called today and informed me that there is no problem with the engine mount and they are supposed to be lower on one side.
Can anyone verify this? Is it true or should I argue with them and say i want it fixed.
Cheers
Nick

Do you have any pics of it? Is the right hand side you refer to the drivers right hand side or as you look at right hand side?
I know that on the 1.2 Ibiza I had to raise the engine by undoing the engine bolts then carefully raised and subsequently lowered back into its original position. This was to allow access past the sump. It may not be the same on this model though.
Head over to seatcupra.net forum. They are very knowledgable over there.
