Hi, basically when I remove my car key the doors usually unlock, but only the drivers side does now!

I've been into the mfd and lost the convenience menu which obviously is used to program door unlocking etc.

Any ideas?

Thanks

What is this and what would it do?

Had a go at testing the power to the rear Window antenna and it's getting 12 volts so it's got power. I bought a second hand antenna or amplifier for the rear Window and the reception is still the same. I have tried having the am and fm wires connected, no different. The reception gets worse with my...

Hi, just got some new rear pads for my passat, mintex ones but they come with 4 metal backing plates about 1.5mm thick, pretty sure I don't have this setup at the moment. They are loose in the box and obviously the same profile and the pads. I assume they go between the metal part of the pad and the...

Hello, any tips for fitting a new epb motor? I managed to snap one of the fitting points off my new one as it was tight on the new o ring. I noticed some corrosion on the recess for the o ring so the diameter was bigger but even after cleaning it up and seeing if would fit it still wouldn't slide on...

Hi, I have to fit a new handbrake motor for one of my calipers, I also have vcds. I'm currently not using the handbrake as the old motor has been removed. Can someone explain the process of installing the new motor with regards to what position the piston needs to be in before fitting the motor. Doe...

Hi, had the handbrake warning light come up! Got out the car and one of the motors was still running for about ten seconds or so, and one caliper is stuck on!

Is there a fix to see me thru for a few days until I can fix it, thanks.

I might be wrong but I'm not sure if you can purchase a stiffer spring, maybe listed as heavy duty for people who use the vehicle to tow.

Just to update, a new pcv valve in the compressor for 15 quid fixed the problem. I was getting 17 degrees at the vents, after fitting the new pcv and a regas, I'm now getting 4 degrees. The new valve is slightly longer at the end which might have been used in the later compressors but does the same ...

Did I read somewhere on here that if the egr fails after the update or within two years, vw will fix it for free?

Haven't had mine done, just curious.

The air con in my passat has never been great, it works but it's just not ice cold! It's just the standard a/c unit. Had it re gassed 2 years ago, was maybe slightly better but hardly much! Sat in traffic it's pants! The fans work, compressor works, the fins for the Rad look a bit damaged assuming i...

Worth removing the rubber around the boot hinges and cleaning all surfaces and cleaning out the drain tubes. This was my issue.

Yeah, I do and that makes it even worse! So I only use my phone charger when the radio is off or have a cd on!

Thanks. Tried what you said but only a slight improvement, still getting fuzzy reception, can only get radio 1 and to local stations, the rest are rubbish. It was like this on my standard basic head unit so something isn't right. Maybe a new rear Window amp will help? Sent from my SM-G935F using Tap...

Just bought a Android head unit and the radio reception is poor, even the standard unit couldn't pick up many stations. Yet I can jump into an old corsa and pick up everything! Anyway, the new unit I have only requires one fakra in the back so I had to buy a 2 into 1 adaptor. See picture Do I need t...

Hi

I have a G235 egt exhaust gas temperature fault, constantly reading 18 degrees. I think this sensor is in the exhaust manifold under the Turbo, so pre Turbo.

Has anyone ever changed these, I have read there a pig to get to.

Any tips please!?

Thanks

Do you have a a link? got this following posted on another forum https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/232471527767 is this what you used? How easy is it to fit? the link above is for metal manifolds? is it suitable for passats? Yeah they do ones for plastic and metal manifolds depending on what you have. Easy ...

I fixed my p2015 with a 20 quid part off ebay. The working envelope of the motor extends too far beyond it's working limits due to wear. This part I fitted cured this.

The heating wiring is only 2 thin spades. One blue one red. Had to take my mirrors off in the summer and reglue them due to wobbling. I'd give anything to get my hands on the little b@stards who did that btw. I'd torture the little t*@ts. Thanks! I was just concerned about the plug to give electric...

Some kids thought it would be fun to snap my wing mirror off! It's been wrenched downwards therefore it can't be fixed! Does anyone know if the painted covers can be easily removed and put on another mirror as I can't afford a brand new one. Plus if I can swop the painted cover it will make sourcing...

Just take it back, could be anything! It's there job to fix it!

Thanks, sorted it, took the motor off, much easier to work out how it fitted.

Tried fitting the bracket but can't get it on, it's like the motor arm is in the wrong position!

I have vcds, I haven't looked properly so it's fuel lines off also even on the common rail? Quite happy taking stuff apart and jigsaw it all back together. I will fit the fixing kit for my error first as it's mot this week and it won't pass with that on. Once it passes it's mot (positive thinking) I...
