  1. @Martini06 - From the above, you have an ABS or traction control, or both, fault. You need a respectable diagnostic computer to take that any further, fix the fault, and get the fault lights to stay out. But that's not a stopper. You also seem to have a servo fault, but I advise driving the car no further than a local garage until that has been repaired.
  2. From what you've said, yes, or a blocked oil pickup. Also the sender has a capillary tube in it, and I have no idea how you cleaned it.
  3. Now explain why there would be a flashing LED on the driver's door of a car with no alarm system. And, indeed, why the LED only flashes when the engine is not running.
  4. Your test is invalid. You only actually test free play on the longest run, but that does look OK yes.

    Mephistopheles!?
  6. And the best you can do with a main stealer tends to be "they're ok". I'd go with Unit 18 over a serial issue denier every time.
  7. Agreed; this sort of thing is actually fairly characteristic of conventional autos, paddle shift and DSG.
  8. Pretty much certain the issue is in the door wiring then.

    Are you having a reading FAIL? I said that I have the choice of driving in ruts of water like lane enforce wants, or on dry tarmac to the side of the lane! And I never once mentioned cruise control, whether simple constant throttle, constant road speed or full ACC.

    OK worked example. You're driving down a lane of road with wheel ruts worn in it on a wet day. The ruts are filled with water? Do you do what lane enforce wants and drive in said ruts, or drive outside them but still between the white lines, and fighting lane enforce's insistence that you're trying to depart from your lane?
  11. Correction in line, italic.
  12. Can you start the car with a key blade that doesn't have an immobilser transponder in it? If yes, then the immobiliser isn't working, but if no then you may have a break in the door wire than powers the LED.
  13. Well, not if the battery wants to change anyway.

    Thanks for the videos; well worth 10 minutes of my time to watch them, but they didn't actually prove your argument that "lane enforce" is anything more than an unnecessary technology provided the driver is actually a driver and not just a wheel holder. They did prove my argument (way off topic) that road train drivers are very much more than just wheel holders; they actually drive those wagons. BTW I have taken and passed a driving assessment for a PSV licence, although I failed the medical on eyesight grounds.

    No. But are we counting deliberately unsignalled (because there is no-one to signal to) turns, and maybe a bit of straight lining as "wandering off line", because I don't but apparently "Lane Enforce Assist" does.
  16. Yes. How hard depends on the demand and ambient temperatures.
  17. KenONeill replied to a post in a topic in Škoda Kamiq
    Not what I said; I said that wandering is an indication to me that I should take a break.
  18. Driver sitting on the left, loads the LHF spring more.
  19. Something not right then. If it had been on selection I'd have said it was normal.
  20. KenONeill replied to a post in a topic in Škoda Kamiq
    Big hint; in the UK the speed limit in roadworks tends to be somewhere between 50 and 80kph. Also. if I'm wandering to the edge of my lane it's a warning that I should take a break now.

    I think @threadbear means that a potentially dangerous interference like this should never have been installed or enabled.
  22. If your car has real buttons, and not a touch screen, I suggest 10 minutes of flapperobics.
  23. Well, I've never known a steering rack break except through active abuse. Even then the track rod usually bends first.
