  3. Hi all, the car is Superb GREENLINE III, Mk2, 104 bhp. While driving for a first time after 3 month break the car went in limp mode with the yellow coil light on. It kept coming up ater restarting and the engine light came up too. Engine is shacky and lacking power. Local mechaninc came to resque and with his diagnostic device he found a fault in the 2nd Injector. He recons fuel doesn't get in to the cylinder and for that reason the car behaves like that. Even though he suggested replacing the faulty injector, I have the feeling it could be some sort of a software issue because immedeately after the fault I had START/STOP ERROR on the dash. Had anyone else encoutered such issue and what was the outcome? It make is even more difficult for me because we are abroad at the moment and we have a short time to reqtify this issue before returning home.
  4. Today
  5. There r 3 modules in total on each headlight - 1x power ballast (at the back) and 2x Light Control Modules (underneath). Pic of the two modules underneath....
  6. Great update ... the dipstick in the press had me in stitches 😁

  11. I’m trying to replace windshield wiper motor and linkage. I’ve identified the problem but I don’t know how to proceed with removing the motor. There doesn’t seem to be enough room to remove the motor. Do I remove the black plating, or is there another easier way to do it? Thank you
  12. Ahhh… I have visited Richmonds in Botley and asked them to sort out a few issues, but so far it’s not been too productive. Dare I ask why you don’t recommend them? Thanks for the advice on the other two places though 👍🏻
  13. This Caddy has been in my ownership for almost nine years. The work that is documented in this thread I hope bears testament to the fact that it has never lacked for attention, and it has had more money spent on it than I would ever admit to my partner, but nonetheless there was still a shocking discovery to be made. Driving in and out of my workshop, up and down a small step / ramp I sometimes heard a noise like sheet metal deforming. More than once I had crawled over and under the pick-up in search of evidence of the source of this noise, but without success. The same noise occurred when I raised it using the scissor lift for the recent gearbox / driveshafts and brakes work, but now I could see dents in the side panels between the B-pillar and the rear wheels. This is not good! Johnny from S&P Autos, who have now changed their name to Martlet Autos, had a look at the Caddy while it was on the lift in my workshop. It was obvious that it was not as rigid as it ought to be, but it was not at all obvious why not. There is a lot of new metal under there, and no sign of tin-worm, so the cause of the flex in the bodywork could not be identified. There were a couple of other jobs I wanted Johnny to do on it before submitting for an MOT test anyway, so we added further investigation of the structural issue to the jobs list. When the appointment at the body shop came around, tactical jacking soon had the area of weakness pin-pointed, and a bit of expert poking unmasked the full horror. The front lower half of the nearside rear wheelarch was not steel. Rust had eaten away the original metal in this area, and rather than repairing it properly the previous owner had put some effort into hiding it instead. The critical area where the wheelarch meets the sill, adjacent to the rear beam mounting, had been patched-over with fibreglass then painted with stonechip to complete the disguise. No wonder the Caddy was trying to fold in half! NSR wheelarch fibreglass bodge I want to stress at this point that I have never sought or received a ‘dodgy’ MOT for this or any other vehicle I have owned, and nor do I blame any of the MOT testers who have passed the Caddy during my ownership for not having spotted this horrendous bodge. Effort had gone into applying and painting the fibreglass so it looked like the surrounding solid bodywork. I can remember when MOT testers routinely used to run a hammer and a magnet over the underbody, which would have shown there was something very wrong, but I do not know of anyone who still does this as a matter of course. Without that this bodge was very hard to detect. This photo was taken once the repair work was underway. Getting back to how it needs to be. Whilst the rear axle was hanging loose and out of the way, the opportunity presented itself to do some work to improve the top spring seats. They certainly look better for it. At the body shop the work that I had done to tidy the hockey stick trims was completed, concluding with some nice gloss black paint. When the rear bed floor repairs were done they were finished-off with a covering of black raptor paint, but the tailgate inner panel had not been painted to match, and this was a good chance to rectify that oversight. The Caddy looked better than it ever has previously, during my ownership at least.
  14. I backed the three screws out until they were only in by about 4 or 5 turns and then thumped the head of each screw with a hammer! As the new bearing came with new screws and I wasn't worried about the threads on either the screws or the old bearing, it was fairly easy.

  18. What’s the point of this post? Are you concerned it’s not WBAC but a scam? Are you unhappy with the valuation?
  19. If you need any service work while under warranty, visit Meadens in Brockenhurst. If you need anything out of warranty, visit VAS Works in Poole. Don’t bother with Snows or Richmond (whichever the one is in Botley).

  21. Which Part Number have The Controller unit?
  22. I think that the ABS sensor ring will get "stuck" to the inner face of the wheel bearing by some means during the bearing's production - the 2 that I removed were certainly still part of the bearing pack, though after you're finding, I seem to have missed a trick by not seeing just how much effort it would have taken to prise them out - they went to the tip a month ago eventually. You are correct, the securing ball screws do just that, ie keep it in place - until corrosion takes over and seizes them in place. How exactly did you manage to get it out of the upright?
  23. some good deals in that auction.

  27. Could someone please share the coding for kodiaq memory seats? My parents had one of their seat modules fail. They replaced it but now the memory functions dont work and they have loads of errors about no basic settings for all the movement. We've tried many times to follow the procedure for sorting the basic settings- forwards,backwards, up, down etc to no avail. Is there a specific order for the various movements? My dad tried doing factory reset but that hasnt helped. (but may have deleted the coding) Searching around I see loads of people having similar issues but no definitive working fix. I have vcds and an autel 808 and have tried both to fix. ran norming and standardization. Their car is a 2017 kodiaq 4x4 dct diesel with memory seats for driver and passenger. The long coding presently in place is 0014 0000 0000 0000 01A4 8180 8080 0000 0000 8181 0000 00F4 00 Many thanks
  28. Ok thank you
  29. It wasn't in Seats they never got connected services till 2020. Mib2 connected services passed them by. 2020 with mib3 / 4 no TMC possible, was factored out. That was one of the Skoda solutions a Skoda dongle for mib2s. On these threads it hasn't been a success on those mib2s. The author of this thread went that way.
  30. Sounds more like a wheel speed sensor has stopped working? Get the car scanned for faults next. Thanks. AG Falco
