thanks for the info. will definitely check out the wiring and connections. Are you referring to this switch #7 in the diagram?

my car (SKODA OCTAVIA 2016 1.6TDI) has flashing glow plug light twice in 2 weeks. Car doesn't go into limp mode. Still drives normally. The cruise control shows it has error and got deactivated when the glow plug light flashes. I have scanned with VCDS and saw this error code- P0572 - Brake Switch. I checked the brake light still works normally when the error comes on. A restart of engine will clear the flashing light. Anyone able to share what is the part that I should change? Thanks.

Took the opportunity to do a major servicing. Timing belt kit Water pump Serpentine belt and tensioner Oil and air filter change

For info that the last stage of the water pump failure is coolant seen splashing in the engine bay area. It just keeps leaking when hot.

Are these suitable for MK3 with torsion beams? https://ukwhitelineperformance.com/collections/all/products/bwr24z-anti-roll-bar

Managed to locate the leak today after another round of low coolant warning. Took a video. I think is the water pump? Sending in to the workship.

Yes I have it straight from the factory. water pump hasn't been changed for 4years/118000KM

So it isn't head gasket issue since no bubbling and the dipstick doesn't show any increase in oil level. When are the conditions that the coolant will leak out from the water pump seal? Because I realised the car could be used for a period of time with no loss in coolant level.

Could be wheel bearings. I had noticed the noise initially on left turns. Before it worsen to right turn. New wheel bearings fixed it all

I I am driving a 2016 1.6 TDI. I have been losing coolant slowly over 2 months. The low coolant red warning light comes on. Seems to be hitting below MIN level every few hundred KM. Never had the over heating temperature warning. Pressure test was ok I don't see any puddle below the car either. Is this typical of the common failing water pump issue? I took 2 photos of it cold and engine just started.

Does it mean coolant is leaking from the water pump? Why does it happen?

Hi all, i have this squeaking sound from the engine of a 2016 octavia 1.6 TDI. you can hear it at i have replaced the following in the last 2 months: - serpentine belt - the tensioner for serpentine belt - alternator pulley mileage on car is 85000KM. but still experience the squeaking sound. what else could it be?
