Volkswagen Owners Club

not sure it will but worth trying some parts up to your car to compare if you find someone that has some for sale and doesn't mind you doing this

A VAG specialist garage may be able to programme in the firmware to make this function operational

Hi, welcome to the Club The cambelt will need changing on both mileage and time so it will now be six years old so I would programme it in to be changed soon

Hi....welcome to the Club! It will probably need the refill programming in if the content ran low. A local garage with a scanner should be able to do this at low cost

Does it cut out when you start to drive? Installation looks fine, except for there looks like another dimple a few degrees to the left of the top mark which may be BTDC rather than TDC mark?

I don't imagine it will as it was a software upgrade which affected performance but not Adblu delivery to the engine

I use iCarSoft for this purpose so yes, it will do that and more

Sounds like it needs the codes clearing and calibrating the steering control unit

Are all three connections used? e.g. is there 3 connectors on the plug?

Aftermarket bulbs such as Philips and Osram will improve the light output considerably. Halfords always have a good range of them in stock

I guess as long as the fittings are there (e.g threaded bolt hole to screw the bracket to and there is a space in the seat for the bracket to be accessed

Hi....welcome to the Club You will need to adhere to the exact specifications for engine oil for your Golf but doesn't matter who produces it as long as it is good quality. Here is a useful site which gives the specs for the oil you need for your car https://www.castrol.com/en_gb/united-kingdom/home/car-engine-oil-and-fluids/motor-oil-and-fluids-finder.html?customerType=retail

Not sure which pins you want to bridge but may be worth a try. Alternatively it may be worth fixing the fault if the car is worth spending on it?

It may be worth spending the money (if fairly reasonable) to rectify the issue but it may just be a matter of time before the problem comes back if the engine doesn't get a proper run

I have twisted the lead going to the connection so that when it is on the coil the terminals are biased to the side slightly which I find makes a better connection

Hi MIke I do wonder if the fault started after the screen was fitted then quite possibly it needs calibrating to work correctly

VW may have a harness listed for aftermarket adaptions, but sometimes the wires are not used and some you need to swap around (red and blue I believe to retain the memory)

I suppose if we go on the assumption that it is the EGR then it is probably not getting driven hard enough to keep the valve clear of carbon. The only viable and cheapest option around this is to fit a blanking plug as all new EGRs will probably block up the same way

It could be a bad earth connection or lead, faulty alternator, loose belt, terminal corrosion on the battery terminals, poor quality battery (maybe pay extra for Premium one with more power), more use on the road during the daytime (without lights, etc).....in fact many other issues which would need further diagnosis

Try looking under the carpet on the passenger footwell side, there is usually a control unit in there which fills with water and causes issues like this

I would go to another garage and seek their advice as to the problem and any potential issues

The springs and wheel bearing are par for the course as these can go hand in hand sometimes. The engine revs sounds more like DPF or EGR blocked and this needs the codes reading to see which it is before proceeding with rectifying it

That is not unreasonable by todays standards for replacing the clutch assembly and flywheel especially at a dealership. Would have been cheaper at an independent garage. If the flywheel has had a lot of high temperature going through it from riding the clutch then it can show as blue in colour which means it is damaged by the heat. It would need replacing then along with anything else that may be damaged.

On the older Passat the ambient air temperature sensor would be mounted behind the front bumper area to measure the air when driving Not sure on later models.....but I would still look for any wiring going to your front bumper area Usually, simply disconnect, remove sensor and reconnect on a new one

Usually with RDS on AM and FM radio stations would tune in automatically as you drove through a local area and the signal was stronger. With DAB radio it is possible to connect to many more stations and geographically it is not an issue. However with DAB you do sometimes need an external aerial to pickup the DAB stations. On a 2020 car I would imagine this should already be built into the car?
