Petescim

Thanks garage said cannot find any damaged wiring, can this microswitch stop all the other things working as well as I have no Window, folding mirrors, working on this door, on the odd occasion the icon appears I get them back but then everything goes again, have stopped trying window in case gets stuck down

It started as intermittent now constant, drivers door not recognised on door open symbol on dash, no electric window, folding mirrors, and central lock have to use key, seems to have affected rear O/S door as well, my local garage think its the control module attached to the electric window motor, on ebay they seem to sell separate from2013 0n but he definitley said its all one unit on mine. He said they have to come from Czechoslovakia and have to be programmed with codes for VW part £270 + VAT + coding + fitting, Ive seen one on fleebay, but I assume if fitted to different model my not work everything on L&K, any advice please.

Im told its dodgy getting wiper arm off and easy to break rear screen ?

Motor stopped working, few days later worked for a few sweeps then stopped, It thought loose connection with tailgate up and down but did it once with TG not in use, I dont have trim remover is there a way of exposing motor and removing trim without special tools

Left for 3 days seems relay was the problem

Never heard fuel pump must admit, so far she;s been starting since relay change but been used within 24hrs hopefully will try tomorrow after left for three days see what happens.

Mine has gone missing just leaving splined stem, where can I get one from please ?

So Garage scanned and only fault that came up was engine control relay new one fitted lets see if it cures the problem, typically it started first time while at garage but only left over one night, normally takes 48 hr +

Error ESP come up ?

Thanks its 2l CR I did wonder as my 50 year old Scimitar takes a while if left when fuel reaches carb away she goes, but thats with mechanical pump wont electrical pump push fuel as soon as ingnition on

forgot to say when she starts runs perfectly no dash warning lights

so my 2011 octavia estate 72000 miles has been totaly relaible until recently. if left for more than two days when you turn key, turns over ok (new battery just before xmas) but no attempt to start. red oil can comes up I stop, try again turnover slowed. third time instant start. you can start and stop it all day and fine, next day fine instant on turn of key, leave for three days and sequence starts all over again, any ideas please ?

Car 10 years old now 70000 miles debating next belt change (2nd in my ownership) want to use local garage instead of Skoda Dealer, does anyone use OEM parts ?
