Re: Adblue Reported Range Remaining

I have adblue ready to fill. Just wondering why the two different range remaining figures. Neither are displaying as a warning, they are available with any quantity of adblue full to empty.

Adblue Reported Range Remaining

In my early 2020 model Passat the dash display is currently showing remaining range for Adblue as 1700 miles whereas the VW app reports it as 994 miles. Anyone able to explain the difference in these two figures?

Re: Have we seen the end of built-in Traffic information?

I just use the Sat Nav screens as installed in the Passat and yes I did pay for a further 2 years to enable it to continue to receive data and updates - the maps are updated regularly. I find the traffic info pretty accurate. It is not via a connected mobile.

Re: Have we seen the end of built-in Traffic information?

My late 2019 (2020 model) Passat reports traffic info on the mapping screen. I did have to pay after three years following initial "free" period.

Re: Ad blue....again

Do you have an AdBlue read out on the dash display. My early 2020 Passat does up to 15000 miles following AdBlue fill up.

Re: Over 1000 Miles Left

Just looked at my record of mpg and I note that the greatest mileage between top-ups was 898 miles when I then filled with 66 litres. This mileage was achieved with several 100 mile trips on motorways/A roads running at about 70mph. In the 42000 miles since new the car is doing just short of 60mpg m...

Re: B8 ad Blue fault

When I topped up adblue on my car instruction was to fill until the flow automatically stopped which was when the adblue was in fill pipe to neck of the bottle thus preventing any more air into it so stopping the flow.

Wireless Key

I seem to be experiencing problems with my December 2019 Passat car key. A couple of times the button to open the car seems to have failed but it has eventually worked. The boot and lock buttons seem to be OK. Anyone had similar problems and if so what is the cure?

Only manual I have is for complete car and the section covering infotainment and its various components is very sparing thus my question above. Yes, I had looked through the link that you suggest but could not find much help there.

Re: Tyre pressure monitor.

I do not think it matters. When I fitted my spare wheel (same as other wheels) the TPMS picked it up after a few yards of travel. I assume the system is currently working as the inflation stalks also contain a small battery with a suggested life of about 5 years.

Re: Tyre pressure monitor.

The monitors are in the inflation 'stalks'. So you would need to transfer these from the old wheels.

Re: New car and I have some questions

The VCDS software is available from Ross Tech but you will also need a genuine cable. Look at Ross Teck site for suppliers.
