  1. As you're told which one has failed, then just replacing the faulty one makes sense to me. If you were getting a garage to do it, then having all 4 done at once would make more sense as there would be a minimum charge each time you went just to replace one glow plug.
  2. If you look at the link in my post earlier today, it mentions doing basic settings with vcd's or similar and then adjusting the headlights with the adjusters on the headlight housing. Even if you can't see the sensors (if they exist) for whatever reason, the wiring should be visible.
  3. The one with the sensor must still operate as a glow plug as well, otherwise you'd get misfiring from that cylinder when starting from cold.
  4. I get the whine for a second or so, but not the clicks.
  5. Sounds like a faulty glowplug, nothing serious. I don't see the problem in leaving it until you get it to the garage in the summer. I believe it will fail the MOT if the light is on.
  6. Does it cough when starting from cold or when it's at normal running temperature?
  7. This video is for the Golf, but maybe relevant. Shows the rear washer.

  9. Don't know if you've used the search facility, there are quite a few threads on this subject.
  10. Are these instructions different from the one's you have? 5E5-061-109-MN-0142-1.pdf
  11. Any chance of driving one of the garages Scout's to see "if they all do it"?
  12. Mine allows me to remove the key regardless of whether my foot is on the brake or not or whether the handbrake is on or off.
  13. Your intial posting could be also be seen as abrupt. No please or thank you's.
  14. Were the lights on, on both sides or just one side?
  15. Have you tried to get it looked at under warranty?
  16. I'll 2nd that. My Varta AGM is 10 yrs old.
  17. Try re-calibration first
  18. i know it's not local to you, but the price is much better. https://www.pscautocentre.co.uk/products/audi-timing-belt-water-pump-replacement-petrol-engines-mqb-platform?variant=40099133587502
  19. I just thought that if you have 2 smart devices connected there's potential conflict. If the battery is fully charged with one terminal disconnected, then the BMS should also read as fully charged when connected as you say. However, some have said that in normal circumstances the battery is never 100% fully charged to allow for a small amount of regenerative current to be put into the battery
