Yes everything is missing in that connector, you need something like this https://fr.aliexpress.com/item/1005009980414262.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.main.7.3dc62ec8BrxS2D&algo_pvid=451b1547-3812-4d8b-bb82-cc7e7de662d3&algo_exp_id=451b1547-3812-4d8b-bb82-cc7e7de662d3-6&pdp_ext_f=%7B%22order%22%3A%22250%22%2C%22eval%22%3A%221%22%2C%22fromPage%22%3A%22search%22%7D&pdp_npi=6%40dis%21EUR%2111.99%2111.99%21%21%2113.32%2113.32%21%40210381f017903173815226031e0dfe%2112000050750775247%21sea%21FR%21914286551%21X%211%210%21n_tag%3A-29919%3Bd%3A583a5b7a%3Bm03_new_user%3A-29895&curPageLogUid=7ANdsZuFX3Pg&utparam-url=scene%3Asearch%7Cquery_from%3A%7Cx_object_id%3A1005009980414262%7C_p_origin_prod%3A

Maybe a ground issue

then the units will do the trick , bty experience stick with EBILAEN for the drive mods. you can use the stock car GPS and DAB antenna. you only need fakra connectors. look for the huge thread on it (I was quite actif) and you will have all the information you need

For basic functions they are ok but : random crashes horrible phone call quality => so AA or carplay unusable by voice as the unit does not understand anything USB wire has to be split and rewired as it is wired for the power of the MK2 no more car diagnostics so so steering wheel controls Hit or miss drive mode showing on the screen (depends on the brand => EBILAEN shows it) I tried 3 of theme before upgrading to MIB2. If you can live the flaws, they are ok but if the mentionned is important, stay away

Discussed multiple times. Stay away from theme

too high indeed. have the oil pan seal checked. It could be leaking. The pans are plastic so you may only have the seal to change.

If the car was serviced at the dealer they switched to G12EVO a long time ago (2019-2020). I had my water pump changed this summer on my 2014 and they refilled with G12EVO (I also have the sillicat bag out) Since the tanks without sillicat came out the dumped the G13 and used G12EVO everywhere.

I think the sinomart injects a modification to the unit. If you retro fitted a camera then you must have coded. remove the code and check.

NGK - 94833 platinum 17,20 euros a piece. It's what I used on my 2014 vers which is also ea 888 3'rd gen Works perfect. Getting the coils off is a pitta. Warm up the car and they will be easier to remove if you do it by hand. Beware of burns...

Oil pan seal ?

I got the Aliexpress ones but had to go back to the bulbs. In order to check if the trunk is closed, the car checks if the lights are one, yeah stupid but it is what it is. The cheapo leds where letting a slight amont of curent pass, trigering the open trunk alerte. When the car was shut my blinkers would go on anf off like when you open the trunk with the kessy

No one will be able tu tell without scanning the car.... It is your only option

What about geometry?

Stupid question, are your rims genuin or aftermarket. Il they are aftermarket and the center diamèter is not the same, they will shake like Crazy. Even with adaptors. My winter are on aftermarket, i made the mistake before getting the right ones.

Change both, xenon bulbs loose brightness with time. You will have a difference in intensity. Further more, the seconde one may fail shortly after the first. It's a 10 minutes job so go for both

The d3s will clip on just right. I put the osram d3s night breaker. Perfect

You can disable it with vcds

when the window is up or down you have to first release the button before holding it again for 10 second

Pm Pab567, he is the infotainment guru here

are you sure the diesel vrs is a cambelt? TSI is a chain

The issue must be the head unit. The glovebox cd Player only works with the original unit. You can check satnav and dab conections at the back of the unit. Satnav is the blue plug and dab the Black one. If you don't have theme, maybe the car was not fitted stock with them and therefore explains why. The person may also have fitted After market antennas, depending where they are it can also be the issue . You say don't have an external antenna so it is most likely the issue

I have a coolant loss. Changed the water pump and regulator 3 weeks ago and still loosing coolant.

car is going for a big servicing in 2 weeks, I asked them to flush the coolant and replace with G12EVO, only costs 17 euros more so perfect

wich coolant? I took my bag out 5 years ago and sticked with the same coolant. What is the risk of keeping the same coolant?

These models have water pump Issues. The cooling system is also managed electronicaly. Do you have n'y record of a water pump job ? Did mine that was leaking last month at 121000km. The dealer told me he was amazed it lasted that Long. It's a 2014 tsi vrs. Best Take it to the dealer for inspection.
