Seat Ibiza Battery Issues

I'm at my wit's end with this 2018 Seat Ibiza gasoline engine. The battery seems incredibly weak when starting, and the lights flicker. I suspect it's a bad battery sensor. Has anyone else experienced this?

Sounds familiar. I had a similar issue with my Ibiza. The battery was constantly draining, and the lights would dim intermittently. Have you done any battery testing to confirm low voltage?

Battery testing? What kind of testing are we talking about? How did you pinpoint the issue with your car?

By battery testing, I mean checking the battery charge and voltage under load. A faulty battery sensor can indeed cause those symptoms. It's difficult to be certain without proper vehicle diagnostics, however. Considering the symptoms, it might be worth taking it to a workshop.

It was the battery sensor. Vehicle diagnostics confirmed it. 315€ later, the battery voltage is stable and the lights don't flicker anymore. Thanks for the insight.
