  1. After some help/advice guys. 1.6 Diesel Turbo rapid saloon. I have a loud "air leak" noise from the inlet/air box side of the engine. Only started happening last night. Only happens in gear when under load and the turbo is boosting. Cannot create when stationary or in neutral. Sounds very much like I have a dump valve fitted (which I don't) I have not had any loss of power or performance, and I have not had the "dieselgate" recall fix on the engine. I have had no fault lights come up, and my daily commute is 120 miles so no issues in that distance so far. My assumption is a pipe/hose has split or popped off, but I cannot see anything missing/loose/ broken or split. Has anyone had this before or know of a "usual" suspect pipe, and is it bad for the engine. I know someone who is running a similar engined golf with a cone filter which makes the same sound which again makes me sure it is an inlet side of the air system as it is sucking in more air. He is a bit pi55ed off that I have got the noise for free and he had to pay for the filter set up LOL!!! Any info would be of use, Ta

  3. Did you have to do anything with your car or phone, or did it just work as before?
  4. Hi, new here so if this has been asked or covered already sorry. I have 2013 Rapid, everything was fine with bluetooth connectivity between my iphone 5S using IOS7 and the car. I updated the IOS8 upgrade on Friday, and now I cant use the bluetooth connection. It shows the phone is connected, but if I make a call, after the person answers, the dash display shows "Dial up Failled " and the handfree cuts out after about 5 seconds, but the call is still going on on the phone. I end the call on the phone, but the car now shows the call as taking place, as I only have the options of " end Call" or "Private call". I have to shut the bluetooth off on my phone and do a full cycle of the ignition on the car to get the screen clear on the dash. If I then switch the bluetooth back on on the phone it locks up the handsfree on the car showing an active call ( to the last person that was called ), and shows "phone" on the stereo and therefore wont play music. I have tried my network provider for help and apple, but both have been as usfull as a chocolate tea pot. I have had a look on the web, and this problem has been reported by lots of people with different brand cars, Audi and VW amongst them. They have said to reset the "network settings " on my phone and I have unpaired and paired my phone to and from the car 6 or 7 times, and in each case I end up with the same issue. Has anyone else had this issue, and got round it yet. It it defo the IOS8 update and not the car, as my work phone still connects perfectly fine, as does my wifes Iphone 5S which is still running IOS7. Any help would be more than happily taken on board. Thanks, Matt
