A piggyback fuse holder on the 12v power socket fuse is probably the best place, I would think a very low risk of voiding the warranty, it would have to be proven that what you did caused the malfunction.

That’s great!, thanks for the advice 👍🏻

In case anyone finds this looking for an answer. Having changed the IAT sensor and other things the P0111 fault returned along with start-stop error. I thought the next thing to try was the battery, as I read somewhere that low voltage could cause P0111.. So, I replaced the battery with a new one and unfortunately the EPC fault returned. I was about to give up and take the car to a garage when I found a Polish YouTube video that showed that on the 1.0 TSI there are actually two air temp sensors; one on top of the engine and one on the side towards the battery. I had changed the one on the top and it had made no difference. Hence, I refitted the old sensor there and fitted the new sensor (same part number) to the side of the engine. Since then, the EPC P0111 fault and stop start error have not returned (2 weeks). I hope this helps someone.

If I hard wire the dashcam to the fuse box as another option firstly would it affect the car warranty and does the Kodiaq have spare ports in the fuse box, also is it an easy job like just plug in?

It was, my friend had in his audi q3 from 2019 when his online subscription run out.

I was looking at this on eBay and was wondering if anyone has used this , how does it sound . Is it worth pairing with a 200cell cat or should I just buy a full system. ?

I don't think it was even installed in cars after 2018, cars had esims by then with the sos button so other methods using TPEG internet services where available and New buyers got access for the warranty periods?

Just checked my Amazon account and the reference number is slightly different. Should be A864S 👍

Because its been replaced with connected services. TMC you had to wait for the slot for the data to be sent out, connected services you just get it. No waiting. None of the mib3 / 4 cars since 2020 support TMC so that 5 year rules got the transmission of the data 🫣.

I recently had my car serviced, but suffered a terrifying blowout of the driver's side front tyre last week (tyre only 3 weeks old and no obvious signs of puncture.) I had breakdown insurance and a new tyre was fitted at the roadside. Thank God I and my 2 dogs finally got home (and stopped shaking)! The "pressure loss" was still showing orange on that wheel, plus both nearside tyres, which were in fact correct! I checked the pressures in all my tyres this afternoon (when they were cold) to make sure they were now all correct but the infotainment system insists on telling me the ability to reset the pressure warning etc on there (ie remove the error message) "is not available"! Please can someone advise?? And no my car isn't (and hasn't been) parked in full sun etc either! For some reason the traction control and ABS warning lights are also showing organge ....

Thanks so much. Been twisting and pulling and more pulling and it doesn’t budge. Don’t want to break the base and/or damage the roof….bit I’ll give it another go. Thanks again. All the best. Jimmy

Nvm, I got it. Thanks for sharing :)

Check the voltage of battery when car not running. Should be 12.5-12.8v and 13.5-14.5 when running. Could be a failing cell in battery so you get enough to start car and may charge up enough to do it next time but if its a short journey then battery hasn't enough power. Have had a few that start no problem and are fine after a longish run but when short journey after 5 miles stop to get fuel it wouldnt start and dash like a christmas tree. Also check battery voltage when cranking. If it drops too low the electronic systems dont like it. If the battery is good then maybe check terminals for corosion and also earth points. Alasdair

Oh damn I completely forgot to say it was a DSG, it’s been a long year my friend. Thanks for letting me know

Thanks pal, someone told there arw 2 ballast one at the bottom and one at the back. Coz I can see the back one.

Looks like Metallic Quartz Grey to me. Probably worth noting it's a DSG too, not a manual Gaz

Hello, I am encountering the same issue with my Octavia 2019. While ago the car would not start and somehow the mechanic had to change the ECU. Now the car starts but from time to time all kinds of alerts show up. ABS, Parking sensor, Hand break Tire pressure.... Did you find the issue? I see in other forums people saying it is related to the ABS sensor. I am not sure.

Another 5+ hours of negative priced electricity on Agile tariff. Two EVs to top up inreadiness for trip to Silverstone on Sunday. Sad no longer any Moto e, maybe back again in a couple of years. Looking forward to the super quick Formula e cars for later this year.

Hi, I’m Paul. I have just bought a 2020 Fabia colour match in race blue. I thought I would join to help me learn about the car and get help from the online community. Hopefully I’ll be able to help too… we have a few VAG vehicles in the family! I came here to find out about a few little niggles that I want to sort out and also to ask a few questions and see what mods some of you have done to improve performance and looks.

Hi there, I have just bought a second hand elroq 85 sportline. So far so good, very pleased. One issue. I can't find out how to disable the alert warnings for speed cameras and traffic queues. I am in the UK and driving down the M6 and M5 yesterday I nearly went mad. Any idea please gratefully received. I've looked online but not found the solution yet.

Note: this requires the deeper style airbag (with the crease all the way round) Non- heated, phone button, DSG paddles. £150 in good condition with one little scuff. Origianlly from Karoq but will also fit Octavia, Superb (should fit all MQB platform)

Off to the British MotoGP on Sunday. Crowds will be a fraction of F1 unlike other meets where bikes exceed car crowds. Yamaha gave me 20% discount. Looking forward to the 850 cc Pirelli era next year.

I’ve returned to standard wheel without paddles as the airbag fits properly. Now got this one for sale!

Dunno? It's only done 72,500 miles and the bearing itself was absolutely fine. No roughness or play. The ring doesn't appear to be bonded to the bearing in any way at all. It's just held there by its own magnetism. I can peel it off and stick it back on anywhere. No evidence of any kind of adhesive behind it? I'm hoping VW have done their sums properly on the three screw fixing. just intuitively, it doesn't look like a bad arrangement. There's a spigot on the bearing housing that locates into the upright. I imagine that and the friction from the tightening torque, will take most of the load, rather than the screws themselves?
