BLT hesitation?

Is it the 1800rpm hesitation issue? If so, there is a 14mm gasket fix for BLT engines.

I have had the 14mm gasket fitted - it doesn't completely fix the issue and still hesitates when cold. I have read somewhere that SEAT remap this out on BLT engines but SUK only do the gasket fix.

You might be getting confused, recalls are for safety related items where a problem has been identified and are carried out by the manufacturer in conjunction with VOSA and the DVLA. They have to fix a certain percentage of vehicles before they can close it.

A product enhancement is where a minor fault/inconvenience has been identified and the manufacturer will issue instructions to rectify it on a scheduled workshop visit, they won't necessarily write to the vehicle keeper to get them into the workshop.
