Got my ABS sensor fixed. I had to do it twice because I got the wrong part first time. Beware anyone attempting, make sure you find out the original part number and find a compatible one via autodoc or get it via Skoda.

Funnily enough, the 220tsi with dq250 6 speed has longer gearing. I don't mind my 280 6 speeder at 80-85. But agree lower rpm would be better.

I am half contemplating DIY. Or getting my local garage to just do the sensors if I manage to scan it and have confidence it's the sensor problem. Will see. I thought I am in no hurry but then the rear park sensors don't work and I need it....

As usual, I didn't do anything to my car but it has done something which means I will need to do something! Anyway, ESC fault, adaptive cruise, SS, park pilot, etc unavailable warnings came up earlier. Last time it did so (I think more faults than just speed related like this time) was battery. This time I reckon it is ABS sensor. Will find out with a scan soon!

Seems like it. Not sure why, odd. Mine is just an old 280 4x4 petrol.... But wait till you see Audi prices for basically the same drivetrain. E.g. A3 vs Golf/Octavia. They pay so much more😂😂

It is VWFS.

Not yet but I shall buy the 2 year service plan on offer until 2 December. 468quid for the Plus package which has 2MOTs, pollen filter, air filter and spark plugs (probably mileage dependent). That's stonking I think...If you trust the main dealer lol

Similar to the other post by another poster and when mine did this (280 petrol) , it was the battery. New battery, Carista coding and all good since. Check the battery first especially if it's old.

Mine did something similar and it's the 12v battery. When was it last replaced?

Assuming it's a good price, I reckon it's worth a punt. Only thing is battery health. That cost a packet to put right if it goes. End of the day, what's the max you could lose anyway?

Suddenly losing 1L in 1000km is weird. Assuming you did check in between. Mine has the coolant level back to nearly min level after 2 years since I topped up to max. God knows why or maybe just normal evaporation...

Changed the front wipers to Bosch items. They came with with car (2016) when I bought it used in 2018 Dec. One of the wiper rubber beads has finally come off hence the change. The other wipes good still, no streaks. Crazy stuff. Crazier if it was factory wipers ...

I replaced battery. All back to normal. Also looked at the BEM code on the old Banner battery. It's the original from 2016 August. It's nearly 9 years old now... No wonder. Happy Days. Although it's only 1 test drive in.... Hope it stays that way.

Battery swapped, coded. All back to normal!

Bought a scan tool (carista), looked at battery values which I suspect is source of my fault codes. Battery ordered from Tayna coming in a couple days. Will fit and code then fingers crossed no more faults....
