Re: LED Lights
Firstly, have bought the correct ones, are they Canbus error free. Number plate bulbs are easy, remove the two screws holding the lamp in, remove the old bulb, fit the new one, make sure the bulb is facing the number plate, switch on, if it doesn't work, remove and refit 180 degrees round.

Re: Creaking Dash
Some of you lot need to get a grip, "get rid of it", " buy an Audi". If this guys issue is so bad, then it should be quite easy to find and fix. Luckily mine doesn't creak or clunk. A lot of these issues that some of you have are caused by people who want to "mod" their...

Re: Imperial car supermarket- who heard who bought
Digressing slightly, but you get similar treatment from the dealers, once sold it's too much effort to reconcile any issues. My 4mo only came with one key, took them 6 months to get it, eventually after getting past the telephone answering woman, I eventually spoke to the dealer director, within a c...

Re: Rust on the inside of the doors!
I noticed this also a few months ago, if I'm right it looks like the anti corrosion is breaking down but no rust is showing, cos if you scratch away a fragment of paint, it's like a white residue underneath. Like many others who have this problem and VW shirk their responsibilities then I feel a cou...

If there is any one on here who is on Instagram, take a look @kbcustoms_, he's got a gismo on his B6 which allows him to start, unlock the doors with his iPhone, has anyone else heard of these.

Re: B6 are junk
There are cars which are more reliable than others. If you've had so much trouble with the B6, I would certainly question the quality of parts and if the tech guy was/is upto the mark, dealer repairs should be covered with 3 or 12 month repair warranty, why did you continually pay for the same repai...

OSR door won't unlock
Anyone else had this issue, this has been playing up for a while now, been too idle to get it fixed, now the damn door won't unlock or open, anyone know the procedure for getting the door open, can the door card be removed whilst shut, or do I need a burning torch to cut the door off, joking
