  1. That is not a courtesy car, that is a hire car. ☹️ Thanks. AG Falco
  2. 4WD helps you go, but it will not help you turn or stop. I run my cars with summer and all season or winter tyres. I have had/seen many problems with 4WD cars in winter but still with summer tyres on them. Thanks. AG Falco
  3. Or somebody with OBDeleven. Thanks. AG Falco
  4. So is it now good? Thanks. AG Falco
  5. And the aim moves at the same time? These bulbs are not easy to fit in my experience. They need a twist to completely locate in the correct position. Perhaps check this and compare to the other side. You can't see the bulb from the front which can help with this. I use a mirror from the back of the housing to check. Bulb goes up then beam reflects down? Thanks. AG Falco
  6. Have you tried to release all the bleed nipples to relive any excess pressure? Thanks. AG Falco
  7. You can program the car to have 'Scandinavian DRL' on. This will turn your front DRL, rear side and number plate lights on when the ignition is turned on. I did this to one of my cars using OBDEleven. HTH. Thanks. AG Falco
  8. Is this the white 6mm hex/allen key fitting? What about the in car headlight aim adjustment wheel? Projector type headlamp assembly. Thanks. AG Falco
  9. I have seen it in my OBDEleven tool. Thanks. AG Falco
  10. Something like this attached to a coil spring? https://keysafe.co.uk/products/supra-portable-key-safe Thanks. AG Falco
  11. This does not work on all cars. Open the car with the key remote. Physically open the boot, but have the rest of the doors closed. Lock the car using the key remote. Put the key in a faraday bag. Place the key/bag in the boot. Close the boot. Thanks. AG Falco
  12. https://www.skoda-parts.com/spare-part/5la010000n-tire-pressure-label-skoda-56661.html The part number is in the bottom right corner; 5LA.010.000.N Thanks. AG Falco
  13. I did it on my 2023 VW UP using OBDEleven. The car has a physical lane assist button on the dash. The car now remembers the last mode it was in. So it is left in the off position, but I can turn it on if needed. ( for the MOT ) Thanks. AG Falco
  14. Yes. All the parts listed were bought from TPS, so they are all genuine parts and part numbers. ''Parts list a follows. Note some new part numbers and some unused parts were delivered. 1S0810971C Inner wheel arch liner left. Now modified note the last letter of the part number is C 1S0810972C Inner wheel arch liner right. Now modified note the last letter of the part number is C 1S08109879B9 Adaptor lower rear left. The adaptors don't appear on the TPS diagram but is listed. 1S08109889B9 Adaptor lower rear right. The adaptors don't appear on the TPS diagram but is listed. N90974701 Screw insert for inner arch chassis holes X 6. ( 3 each side ) N10321301 Screw insert for outer arch chassis holes X 4. ( 2 each side ) N909747701 T25 Torx screw x 18. Only needed 14 ( 7 each side ) as you can reuse 4 from the removed front adaptors.'' All of these parts were used except the last line where I reused 4 screws. HTH. Thanks. AG Falco
  15. Can you compare them to the bits I used. See the post above which also has the part numbers listed as well. Thanks. AG Falco
  16. No & no. All fitted over Xmas 2024 so they have been in use for two winters so far. I live in the sticks so they get a lot of use. On the Panda you can't see the bulbs from the front. The last tester I had ( this year ) is very strict on MOT's ( they have a fail rate of 60%, average is less than 30% ). Because he can't see them he can't fail them. He didn't have any suspicion that they were LED's though. ( I asked after the MOT was done. ) No problems with the MOT last year with a different tester. On the Skoda Citigo, had no problems on the last two MOT's when they were fitted to the car. The garage that fitted the bulbs also did the MOT's. On the VW UP, not due its first MOT until next month. This car can be ordered with LED headlights from factory. Not planning to change them over but the halogens live in the boot if needed. The swap over is easy. There are some before/after photos of the beam pattern on the Amazon review section for these bulbs. Thanks. AG Falco
  17. I have fitted three pairs of Philips Ultinon Pro9200 LED car headlight bulbs (H4), to a Skoda Citigo, a VW UP and a Fiat Panda. All were a straight swap and all worked very well. In the UK, Amazon sell them here : - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DJRLVBXP Thanks. AG Falco
  18. Lots of detail here about this problem : - All the parts looks similar. HTH. Thanks. AG Falco
  19. 2016 1.2 TSI at 99K miles. Last tank 62.6 MPG Struggle to get below 50 MPG in the winter. I do do no town driving / short journeys though. Thanks. AG Falco
  20. Does the stud go down and connect to the thick black wire below? The one that goes out at the bottom left of your first photo. If so does that go to the positive battery terminal? Thanks. AG Falco
  21. When I fitted mine I found that you could just feel where the holes are. The undercoat would push in further where the holes were in the inner bodywork. I used a small round screwdriver to start the hole and finished it off with a 1/4 inch extension bar male end. Give us a shout if this is not enough detail for you. Thanks. AG Falco
  22. I can get brief VAG service history. Just PM me the Reg number. Thanks. AG Falco
  23. Are the brake pads sided or are they all the same? Thanks. AG Falco
  24. Sounds more like a wheel speed sensor has stopped working? Get the car scanned for faults next. Thanks. AG Falco
