  1. did you replace the HT leads with NGK ones with the plastic conduit "heatshields"? I just had exactly the same issue, the diagnostics pointed to coil pack failure. I fitted a new one and the issue reappered. I then changed out the plugs for the bosch iridium ones and fitted the NGK HT leads. the old plugs and leads were in a terrible state. as soon as i fired it up, the epc and traction control lights were gone and the engine was no longer shuddering at low revs. The plugs in mine had been changed in 2020, so i wouldn't rule them out if they have been in for over a year.
  2. Holy shirts, its £100 hike if your car goes 1g over 120g/km. This is truly madness.
  3. £30 tax? How is this possible? I have a 2015 rapid 1.2tsi and my tax is about £140! Is it a greentech or some such?
  4. I have googled and scoured this forum till my face turned blue but can't quite get the information I need. I wish to fit MFSW buttons where there are non. I have purchased buttons that I am assured were from a Rapid. I have bought a hex-can usb cable from vag diagnostics which works fine (I have recoded the central locking) and I cannot get a reasonably priced wiring harness and so plan to adapt the existing one which I have the full tutorial for. My problem is, upon scanning it seems that I do not have a steering wheel controller at all. Is this likely seeing as I have have stalk cruise control? I did have a physical look for thing and could not locate it. If I do require one, will there be wiring already there to facilitate this? Cheers
  5. I LOVE my Rapid, however, the one achilles heel I would like to resolve is to have the lights left set to sidelights, and switch off when I remove the ignition key without the car beeping at me and having to manually move the switch. It doesn't sound a big deal but my 2004 hyundai coupe did it and i feel like i have gone back a technological level. I imagine it would involve switching the 12v to the light selector through the acc on the ignition barrel but before I investigate and possibly damage the barrel assembly, it is probably worth knowing if there are any free contacts on it. Has anyone done such a modification?
