  1. Sorry to bump an old thread but I wondered if anyone has a list of gateways that are prone to cause battery drain. I have battery drain issue with a Kenwood head unit and wondered if this might be a cause. I'll dig my multimeter out and try to find the circuit which is causing the drain.
  2. Having inspected the airbag closer it would appear the 2 smaller spade connectors should be -ve and the bigger spade looks like it should be the +very side of the airbag?
  3. Hi guys, Not sure if this is in the correct sub. Sorry if it's not I've fitted a Mk3 MFSW to my Mk2 prefl. Everything works now I've fitted the correct controller and replacement loom except for the horn. I've read elsewhere that the small cylindrical connector needs to be plugged in but I can't find anywhere on my horn to plug it in. The paper number for the loom is 5K0.971.584.C Can anybody confirm if that's the correct loom? I've checked the voltage on the connectors, the 3 spade connectors are -ve and the round connector is showing 11v. Obviously this needs to be plugged in but where exactly?
  4. Have you got a passenger sunvisor for a 2010 Tiguan?
  5. Do any of you guys use a subscription based streaming app? I'm looking for a good app to use with my android phone with a good selection of artists and tracks. Currently I'm using a mates Spotify but really need to sign up for my own, Is Spotify one of the best out there? Has anybody used the Amazon version?
  6. I fancy fitting fl rear lights to my prefl VRS. Is it a straight swap or does it involve changing plugs or coding? It's on the estate btw.

  8. I want to order a bumper protector for my estate VRS but unsure which one. They're listed for 05-08 and 09-13, My car is the prefl so should be the 05-08 but my car is a LE on 09 plate. What's the difference in the rear bumpers?
  9. Do Costco sell Goodyear tyres, I thought they only fitted Michelin?
  10. How are the silver trim pieces on the Octavia mk2 door cards removed? Are the plastic rivets or clipped? Do the door cards need removing or can they be popped off from the front?
  11. I'd like to attempt this on my preface VRS, I know they're not a direct fit but does anybody know if the actual shape of the fogs are different or is it just the mounting tabs. Has anybody got a facelift and preface fog that they could compare?
  12. I currently have a stage 1 shark map on my Octavia VRS. Soon I'll be fitting an S3 intercooler and Miltek exhust along with DPF and EGR delete. Obviously I need the EGR and DPF mapping out and I want a stage 2 map at the same time. I am happy with the map from Shark but not their service so I won't be using them again. So what other mappers are rated? I've heard some bad reviews about Awesome who are local. Are Darkside any good and has anybody used Derv tech in Trafford Park? I drove past Derv tech earlier today and noticed quite a few Fabia diesels outside.
  13. Slightly off topic but do you need to move the engine over to do the timing belt on a diesel?
  14. Just fitted a W8 light to my Octy, Original light had 2 screws but the W8 is just held in by spring clips.
  15. My car is already mapped but If the cooler is leaking I'm debating whether I should buy a delete kit for £75 and get the map adjusted to delete the EGR as a new genuine cooler is £265.
