Hi, that sounds like a similar problem to the one I had with my old Ibiza. Was it just the ignition coils or were there other problems? And if you remember, how much did you spend on the repair? Fingers crossed that everything has been running smoothly since the ignition coils were replaced.

Hey, no, since I've been to the mechanic, my Leon is running like a champ again. They actually just identified a defective ignition coil and replaced it immediately. That completely solved my problem with the jerking and the black smoke. When it came to the cost, I was also pleasantly surprised. I only paid around 105 euros for the repair. So everything is fine. Good luck to you!

Yes, that really sounds like I have a similar problem. Thanks for your reply and the tip about the ignition coil. I will definitely have it checked by a professional and hope it won't be too expensive. Keep your fingers crossed for me, guys! Your advice was really helpful, thank you very much!

Hello, I have a 2013 Seat Leon and had similar problems to yours. My car also ran rough, had difficulty accelerating and there was black smoke coming out of the exhaust. It was actually a serious problem, a fault in the ignition coil. The mechanics at the garage had to change the ignition coil and since then my car has been running perfectly again. So I can only recommend that you have it checked by a professional. Good luck with that!
