I've always had VAGs my last being a 1.9 tdi 2010 Octavia. However cant get that brilliant engine anymore. So looking at a 2017+ Octavia Estate to do trips of 180 miles each way once a week South Wales to Midlands. I dont know if to go for a 1.6 or 2.0. I have other fun cars so this is purely cheapish commuting tool. Also DSG or Manual? If your sat 70mph is the 2.0 150bhp actually better?

I've always had VAGs my last being a 1.9 tdi 2010 Octavia. However cant get that brilliant engine anymore. So looking at a mk4 Octavia to do trips of 180 miles each way once a week South Wales to Midlands. I dont know if to go for a 1.6 or 2.0. I have other fun cars so this is purely cheapish commuting tool. Also DSG or Manual? If your sat 70mph is the 2.0 150bhp actually better on fuel? Cheers

Nope. Just take apart and see if pins look oki and spray contact cleaner or is there a pin out that I can check?

Sorry why? So headlight work (they light the road ahead) The near side is pointing too low The adjuster on the dash (roller switch) only raises off side Does that make more sense?

No..... they work fine. The drivers side one adjusts. I would guess its the mechanism for adjusting it in the light thats gone. Good assumption?

Hi guys, Yes lots of posts on here on this but my issue doesnt fulfill any I have seen. So mine failed MOT on near side beam too low. The in dash adjuster only moves the offside one, I guess other side broken (a few posts on here about the fuse blowing but one of mine works) Its only a 1.9TDI 2010 car so halogen projectors (mk2.5). Is there just a manual adjustment or anything I can do to get through MOT? There seem to be 2 white plastic lugs at top of headlight that will take a philips screw driver, however they dont seem to do anything on mine.... should they? Cheers

Perfect. I do. Will go uncheck it. Cheers

Doesnt have that module. Went to Module 09 Went to Adaptations Channel 3 is called "Selective (Single Door Locking)" That is set to 01 already Yes double key turn does unlock all thanks. Still be nice to have it do it in 1 go if I can tho?

Well that makes it look so easy! I thought it went other way so I will try again.

I have a real poverty spec 2010 Octavia! I have manual keys (Non flip keys) I put key in drivers door lock and only unlocks drivers door have to then press unlock all door button by handbrake to let mrs in. What do I need to change so it unlocks all doors when I put key in? It locks all when I lock car. Cheers

Morning all I need to change my right stalk so I have a good trip/mpg computer (Thanks Eddy) I have a 2010 mk2 with the following wheel, I have found some guides but clearly or pre facelift but thought they be same so I crack on. I have the following wheel and it has 2 airbag clips at back (poor pic below) I cant for love nor money get the bugger off! Am I trying to push it to the outside with a flat blade? I can only do 1 at time (you can only see it when wheel positioned to top) Any help would be great. Cheers Sheldon

Cheers. Is Mahl the OEM supplier? Im not being awkward honest...... its just a pain to go to the local Skoda dealer with a GSF far closer..... or cheaper online. Ive ordered a Bosch one........

Its Castrol Edge Professional 5w30 Meets or exceeds VW 504 00 / 507.00 Im all good.

Cheers guys. Yes I dont need the colour display happy with my White and Black, so I can code with my VCDS

Its the usual filter in a plastic top hat I think (looks like that and every 1.9 Id have before is like that) I think I might have oil name wrong, but its used by JLR in many of their cars (all forced induction), Its Castrol stuff so its probably the edge, I will go check later.

Castol GTX does meet VAG requirements and is used as OEM oil by many OEMs (Might be how I get hold of it ;-) ) The filter just doesnt seem to have a non return valve in it. If they do I would like to change for one with one. Does the Bosch 501440287 have one? Does the OEM have one? Reading around its often in the housing and not the filter on many VAG engines, but Id like to know. Il prob get a new pick up pipe too and drop sump as I just bought car. Any idea on part number?

Thank you.

I did this in my R before getting mapped and ran fine. RS4 valve and HPFP (Even did RFD too, which caused a noticeable difference but nothing to worry about), sadly only ran like that for about 2 weeks then car was stolen!

1.9 TDI 105BHP I know should be using 5w30 Fully synthetic. Any point going to thicker 10W40 for a standard car with 66k on clock yet? I have an unlimited supply of Castrol GTX 5w30 fully sythetic so I will prob just use that and change every 6 months. Any particular filter to go for? Doesnt look like there is a return valve on any of these so any cheap one do or get a Mahl one? Thanks Sheldon

Perfect thats all I wanted.

Thanks Eddy. Is that right part number, J? The cluster although basic with just temerature shown in middle large, it is the large display White and black. (Il take a photo tonight)

Hi all Got myself a 2010 Estate with the good old 1.9 TDI (Tho a BXE but I will take the risk and change oil every 6 months). Need to get under it and check about DPF but Im SURE it has one as all European sold Diesel cars after 2008 had to have one tho this forum everyone says only the 4x4 ones did. Its proper budget spec....... I dont mind but doesnt even have the trip/mpg computer. I know the Maxi dot seems had to add to a face lift (Impossible back in 2012) but what if I want the mpg instant and odometer reading? Can I get a different stalk (with buttons on end to cycle through) and code it with VCDS? Here is a VCDS log if it helps?

Gents You guys on this forum seem to always be most upto date. My Golf mk6 R has flagged this fault V181 on a few occasions now with only 34k on clock and at those time I can assure you I was in fwd. I plan on changing the haldex oil (As its due in 6k anyway), however is it worth removing pump and cleaning the gauze head it seems to have? (Looking at pictures) and checking electrical connection not full of oil? Any advice be great as Im not sure what to do as its intermittent, 99% of time fine them in last 3 or 4 months happened 4 times. Any advice? Cheers

Perfect thanks guys! Any advice or wiring part number I need?I presume its going under passenger seat? Do I need 2 mic or does it work with my current mic (I have working voice control already)

Yes its a 2011 R so has the White Cluster with Car icon etc.. with many functions on it. I need to connect the latest android phone. Galaxy S6 and a Galaxy Alpha. My work phone is an Iphone 6 but if that doesnt connect not end of the world.
