Sounds like the clutch is dragging. Same symptoms with my sisters Astra. We took the gearbox off, and found her clutch was dragging because one of the pressure plate forks had snapped off and wedged itself between the release plate, which meant it couldn't disengage all of the clutch when the pedal ...

Thanks, but it’s the correct pads I’m after. There seem to be some difference when looking for them on certain sites

Use this as an example. These pads are for the rear 300mm discs. EuroCarPrats list it as code 1KZ, but don't take that as gospel.

Rears are 300mm disc size

Does anyone know how to fix the above? Adjusts fine in all directions but no longer dips when reversing. Mirror selector is still set to the nearside position. Do I need to reset something or is it likely to be a physical problem?


Mirror position needs resetting. Move the mirror to the end of ...

You need diagnostic kit.

Can't help with the weird flashing, but about the ACC radar... this will be the radar mounting bracket adjustment/mounting points becoming corroded and allowing the unit to rattle about.

Bracket will need replacing before attempting alignment, but if you value your safety, get the alignment process ...

Yes you can change this, either in Infotainment (if available), or via coding.

Its number 20 you need then. The bumper is a push-fit into this.

When i say push, its more of a "bray it with the base of your palm" til it clips in.

You're going to need a Diagnostic, otherwise any replies are going to be guesswork.

Regarding the battery, what is the voltage of the one you've replaced it with? Being a known "good" battery can still cause issues if the voltage is low.

Cheap, and no good. They will dim when they get hot. Buy Cheap, Buy Twice.

I have a set of Osram LEDriving Intense H7's and they've been spot on for over a year. Osram recently replaced the set for me under warranty (4 year warranty on these), and sent the newer version to me. Fitted them at the ...

Black smoke is a boost leak. Either an intake hose has come off, or its split.

If the turbo was at fault, you'd get white/blue cloudy smoke.

PO225D software version looks too early, may not support it.

I would like to activate carplay on my unit, not sure if it supports wireless or not? 2018 r line model, I will get the firmware from the unit in a bit to see what version it is, any help with this would be great.

Here is my info MST2_EU_VW_P9122D

MU version 0842

Thanks Ronnie


That unit will ...

Wow to both comments! Let's hope so! Thats a mighty fine looking motor!!

Just looking into timing belt kits, mines a CFFB engine which seems a different kit/tensioner to most is their a thread on here relating to any differences with timing belt kits?

There's two different tensioners for the ...

Thanks mrderv, that will save me poking in the light cluster thing! The dashcam I'm looking at has a hard wire kit that need constant and swirched 12v, is fuse 40 switched plus?


Fuse 40 has two positions. You'll see in the pic it is in its lower position (with an empty fuse pin above it). In ...

Planning to fit a dashcam, hate wires dangling! Does anyone know if power can be had from the light panel in the roof? it's R line model with electric sun roof.

Thanks Ronnie


Can't use the light panel. You'll need to tap from the fusebox and run up the A-Pillar.

Use a piggyback fuse adapter ...

You could drop https://www.yorkshirevwagretrofits.co.uk/ a call, he supplies original VWAG parts, but if your camera is the highline model (steering geometry reversing lines), then it will likely need a calibration. It will work without it, but any fault code scan will return an error code for "no ...

Thanks

According to VW workshop manual, DPF needs to come out with it before it can be seperated

Hi Guys
I have a 2014 estate and the factory fit reverse camera has stopped working ?
My question is whether the cheaper replacement’s available are compatible with the head unit or do I require a genuine part .Also I am assuming the fault lies with the camera and not elsewhere?.
Look forward to ...

Had the P2002 code on my car for while now. Been to a VW specialist and they are sure the rear EGR cooler is partially blocked and needs either cleaning or replacing.

They have told me the DPF needs to come out as you can’t remove the cooler by itself. They are quoting a 10 hour job and in the ...

It depends on the manufacturer of your MIB unit in the glovebox.

I removed the links to the activator in previous posts as it only worked with one of them. If its used on another brand, it has the potential to brick the unit, so i deleted the link to avoid someone just rushing into it without ...

Evening all,

Looking for some pointers for replacement bulbs. Read varying reviews on the direct fit LED bulbs, and don't fancy taking on anything other than a direct fit option. Plan on doing the DRL, dipped, main, and fogs with something at least a bit better than the candlelight standard ...

You can get a replacement bracket, but get the part number off the existing one first before you order. I've seen comments on the web that the wrong one has been ordered, apparently 2 different versions of this bracket.

Unfortunately, You'll need to have the radar unit calibrated at a workshop that ...

Why not buy it in a bottle instead?
