(Translated from German)
Summary of the thread
A 2019 Seat Ibiza owner is experiencing issues with the gear indicator and a warning light, suspecting a malfunction with the clutch pedal switch. A similar problem was resolved in a 2017 Seat Leon by replacing the faulty clutch switch, which was identified and fixed by a garage. The suggested solution is to have the vehicle inspected by a professional to confirm the issue and replace the switch if necessary, potentially resolving the problem without significant expense.

Hi, thanks for your feedback. My Ibiza currently has 31729 km on the clock and the last inspection was done recently. It's funny how these things always happen straight after the service, isn't it? So all is not yet lost with my clutch. I'll probably have to take it to the workshop soon, judging by your feedback. Thanks for the tip!

Hey, no problem, I'm happy to help! With 31729 km on the odometer and the recent inspection, your Seat Ibiza still seems to be quite fresh. It's really annoying that such problems always occur directly after the inspection! In the case of my Leon, the garage recognized the fault relatively quickly and fixed it. But anyway, I think it's always better to have it looked at by a professional. In my case, luckily it was just the switch and no other problems with the clutch. Even if it costs something, it's better to invest once and then have peace of mind. So don't hesitate too long and make an appointment with your garage. Good luck with that!

Hi, really cool of you to be so helpful! With your description, it doesn't sound that dramatic. I've heard worse car stories. You probably know the saying, "Better a bird in the hand than a pigeon on the roof", right? I'll definitely take your advice on board and make an appointment with my garage as soon as possible. Maybe I'll be lucky and it really is just the clutch switch. That way I could hopefully get out of this without too much expense. Thanks again for your feedback and tips!

Hi, I had a similar challenge with my 2017 Seat Leon, diesel engine. I would describe myself as someone with some automotive experience, although I'm not a professional. In fact, I also had a faulty clutch switch. I took the car to my trusted garage and the mechanics there quickly identified the problem and replaced the switch. It cost me 215 euros and then the problem was solved. Could you please give a few more details about your car - perhaps the mileage or when you last had an inspection? With such information, it would be easier to go into more detail and help you further.
