Need help on adding a leisure battery to a roomster
petrev replied to RudiRudiRudi's topic in Skoda Roomster Guides
Hi @RudiRudiRudi, Split charge relay is fine and loads cheaper. Euro 6+ need the expensive stuff. Durite works for me and I just got a kit from Simply Split charge to make life simple. https://www.simplysplitcharge.co.uk/index.php?route=product/category&path=109_98 The owner will make up any kit that you want from his set versions. Have a chat about your needs. I ended up with about 7m of Red cable required. Medium duty kit for a 110Ah battery. I added a fuse box but that is only needed if you have multiple feeds/outlets. Easiest to get it all made up for you to save loads of hassle ... Heavy duty crimping and/or a large soldering iron needed otherwise. Comes with simple, easy to follow instructions. No spare wheel - Just a "repair" kit in my Roomster, so easy to just remove the polystyrene and get loads of space for the battery and whatever you need storing. HTH - Have fun... -
Still working for me, but tried a couple of VW VINs and only one was found in the database.

Hi, Just upgraded the passenger seat in my Roomster RV to a Tiguan fold-flat unit Fit Tiguan front seat in a Roomster ... . This is how it looks with the single bed unit. It allows for a kit bag to be available easily when needed. No need for the support strap now - Simply rests on the seat back (don't need the centre armrest either, but I like it anyway . e&oe

Hi, Facelift Roomster 2013 to Flappy Paddle upgrade. Is this possible ? I see Yeti and Fabia of various ages have been fitted. What steering wheel and what extra wiring and VCDS would be needed if anyone knows ? Is this a suitable steering wheel ? https://www.cars-equipment.com/www/en/shop/navigations/oem-5e0419091af-cwe-multifunction-steering-wheel/ Hopefully an expert out there will have the knowledge.

Slightly cheaper than Skoda parts dept. but plus postage no doubt. Some Scout panel bits https://www.cc-autodily.cz/search/?count=60&price[priceFrom]=&price[priceTo]=&keyword=ROOMSTER+SCOUT&vp-page=1 Pete

Re: Adding Roof Rails Get a price from the Spares Dept. for supply, and also for supply and fit. They used to do a fixed price deal that was pretty good value - Hopefully they are still doing this. If you go through the Service Dept. they charge much more. Best optional extras that I have found are 1. Heko wind deflectors - Heko Cheap at ~£25 2. RGM rear bumper guard - DirectCarParts - Better than Skoda OEM version 3. Privacy shades - CarShades - SuperSkoda were the best (after Climair.de) but sadly both not available now. 4. Centre armrest (if DSG) - Skoda OEM - Part 3B0 864 209 AC seems to be same as for Golf/Jetta Mk4 - Currently on theBay for cheap Here and Here and others - BUT - I think has different mount adapter : ( Needs Part 5J0864273 Mount as well as different plastic pieces. http://www.oemepc.com/skoda/part_single/catalog/sk/markt/CZ/modell/RO/year/2010/drive_standart/481/hg_ug/863/subcategory/863060/part_id/2545298/lang/e

Don't know who that was for ? Anyway ... Video of my unit -
Yes - DAB-Z is much better than supplied apps.

In case it's of use 3.3 Ohm (required for my Roomster) I bought one of those selections of resistors for airbags (£2.65 for 50x up to 3.3 Ohm, or £3.70 for 100x up to 6.8 Ohm) and the nearest supplied that didn't cause a warning light was 3.3 Ohm - This worked for me. The VW specific resistors sold online (£7.50 Yikes!) are 3.3 Ohm. You can get 5x 3.3 Ohm for about £1.50-£1.80 on theBay. + Cancel that dashboard Warning light ... ANDROID - VAGEraseDTCAll App (FREE) works well to cancel Airbag Warning Light with OBD2 adapter. I just folded the legs in a loop for my testing purposes and it worked well - maybe add some solder over the loop, or wires and heatshrink etc. if using for a longer period ...
