Assuming this isn't trolling, what you need to do is put the original parts back and get some diagnostic gear connected. It is possible to remove the immobiliser by having the engine ECU reprogrammed to no longer need it but this is not simple and will likely invalidate your insurance.

This. You really need a full scan with VCDS or OBDEleven to get a picture of what's going on.

I'd pull off that trim and check. My money would be on a leaky windscreen.

Does your car have a sunroof?

The parking sensors might be a red herring, but a dodgy ABS sensor will throw up the other errors for sure. Best get that diagnostic!

Yep, that's totally knackered.

VW Rising Blue?

Hello all. I've not posted for a good while, but renewing my Freedom membership has motivated me. I last owned a Skoda in 2008- a Fabia vRS Mk1, which i loved, but my worsening back condition forced me to a Seat Leon TDI DSG, then a Scirocco TDI DSG; I had a long commute so I needed diesel, the back problem meant I needed DSG/Auto, and my short driveway means that the Leon at a shade over 4.3m long is the longest car i could have. I've now had to sell the Scirocco, as the back condition has got worse again, and I need an adapted car (with hand controls). I don't qualify for Motability (PIP), so I'm financing myself. I have a strong preference for VAG group cars, and will be buying secondhand. Budget is "as little as I can get away with", but I want low mileage as I will be keeping this car for some time- I had the Leon for about 9 years, and I'd still have the Scirrocco if I had that option. Essentially the requirements seem to mean a choice of the following: Fabia/Polo/A1/Ibiza (my OH has an Ibiza, it's great but a bit too small for our main car, which might exclude Fabia) Kamiq/T-Cross/Arona Leon/Golf (Octavia is a shade too long to fit on the drive) I want at least 100BHP/ton, and nothing *too* dull. My commute is still long, but hopefully not every day now, so i reckon petrol (1.5TSI) is in the running. I'm not in a huge hurry as I still have to get my licence back from DVLA, but that should just be a formality. Anyone have any thoughts, especially any Kamiq owners?
