Had an interesting contact on ham radio this afternoon

The second one isn't China it's a holding place in Leicester I've had many items from places like that

https://www.onlinecarparts.co.uk/oenumber/1k0905865a.html & https://www.123spareparts.co.uk/oem-number/1k0905865a shows them having stock

Well I shan't be watching that again, what a crock of americanised s*ite

The control unit (J538) is near to the pump unit under the back seat base accessed via the round access panel, if you have VCDS you can test the unit or if you have a multi meter you can do a basic voltage test across the two larger contacts ( pins 1 & 6) on the connector that is the supply from fuse 27 it is a live supply and on pin 3 is an ignition ON supply from fuse 1 (10amp)

Here's some interesting news ? https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/business-environment-and-energy/volkswagen-commits-diesel-next-decade

Mercedes are not going to appeal the stewards decisions https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formula1/59681314

Breaking F1 news, A rule change for 2022 all cars will now be required to be a 2 seater, so the company lawyer can advise or take control of the car for any on course decisions

More likely to be the vanes sticking, needing the "Mr Muscle" cleaning trick, it stopped my old ASV Mk1 from overboosting and dropping into limp mode, I certainly wouldn't be adjusting the operating rod unless you have previously adjusted it ?

If you're using VCDS ? hover the mouse pointer over the measuring block and it will give you a high & low range figures

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/303185988891 That's what I use in my Touareg

Have a look at https://www.mtecbrakes.com/ they offer an additional coating to prevent the rusting and the disc quality is very good far better than OEM

2 mins with a multi-meter would prove if there was a supply & ground but typical stealership, not really interested in older cars just want to flog you a new one with software problems that they can't fix either lol

More likely to be a SMD LED rather than a bulb ? so broken wire/s in door loom

As it will have Stop/fart it will most likely be an AGM but the ctek 5 or NOCO Genius 5 will be suitable to keep it refreshed

I wouldn't trust halfrauds to pump up a push bike tyre

I changed a KPH to MPH/KPH using VagTacho, I took the eeprom data from my original speedo and then wrote that data to the replacement unit and at the same time I added the Welcome message on power up and changed the needle illumination to be permanently on. I found a very good webpage (that I can't find now I think the link is on my old laptop) it was about modifying MK4 Golf speedos

I bet your Mummy still wipes your botty for you

So you're expecting someone to trawl through the different suppliers sites and then tell you what to buy ??

You haven't mentioned what model/make of replacement unit you are thinking about just a list of potential suppliers ??

I used a hot air bower when I replaced all the LEDs in my MK1 Octy speedo a dab of flux on the connections and the solder flowed nicely

According to the wiring diagrams there is only the 1 CTS G62 as stated above, I would get the system checked with something other than that phone app like VCDS I see you're in MK so am I and I have genuine Hex-V2 VCDS

Could it be that the QI wireless charging is in use ?
