  1. Hi Spaced99, hope all is well, I found you on the map for vcds owners. I used someone well known on the forum before called rustynuts & I was wondering if you could help me as you thankfully you live near where my wife works ? 

    My car is a Skoda Octavia Mk2 2006 Diesel  Elegance  

     

    I have a three things I ideally need your help with regarding abs, power steering and radio.


    POWER STEERING 

     

    So firstly whenever I disconnect my battery the power steering light comes on which is normal and normally when I drive for a bit it comes off, however this time I have tried everything even turning the wheel to the right to left full lock to clear the code, my scanner can’t tell me if there is anything wrong which I don’t believe there to be. Please may you scan it so I can know the problem and possibly clear it. 
     

    ABS LIGHT

     

    So with the abs light I took it to garages and scanned it my self and gave indication of faulty abs sensor which is common in vw group cars. So I replaced the sensor with a a new one and tried to clear the light but it still remains the garage stated it could also be linked row an abs pickup ring which I have bought and was did pay someone too fit it when they changed the sensor but they never did. I was hoping you could scan and let me know what the fault code is with more detail.

     

    RADIO

     

    Lastly I had my 2006 Octavia retro fitted with a 2010 RNS510 unit in 2019 I had someone code it in with the new canbus gateway I bought for a 2013 car so it didn’t drain the battery and to make sure it turned off the radio. My problem is that unit broke and I bought a new unit and I’m not sure but I might need the unit coding back in ? But not sure as the canbus gateway is still in the car so I thought it should be fine and plug and play. 
     

    Anychance you could help me with this would really appreciate it as I’m due to sell the car soon. 

    If you can please could you let me know when your free and your address? 

    Thanks again

    Kind Regards 

    Adam

  2. I don’t have a vcds is there anyone in lincoln or near who does maybe Leicester as I come regular. I don’t know what it could be never used to happen. I don’t mind driving to someone who has vcds
  3. Hi so I got my car (2006 Skoda Octavia 2.0 diesel elegance retro fitted with a Columbus unit RNS510 (2010 model) back in 2019 and I changed the can gateway module with a 2013 skoda and had it coded by rustynuts Aka Andy on this forum. The unit stopped working months after so I have only just bought a new working unit. I unplugged the old one and I am planning to put the new one in as I want to sell the car. my question is as this car has a can gateway module for a 2013 And was previously coded in can I just plug the new unit in, it won’t drain my battery will it or do I need to have it recoded so it doesn’t, really hoping I don’t have to code it as I have a week to sell the car and don’t have a vcds code scanner just a minor handheld obd2 scanner. please help and answer if I need to scan and code or just plug and play.
  4. Looking to purchase a Columbus unit RNS510 skoda for up to £100 ideally max maybe £120 please help was sold a unit on here which broke 2 months after owning it? Need a replacement
  5. @Warrior193i have a diagnosis scanner. For vw cars and under the steering wheel section. No codes come up and I click clear codes it doesn’t go ? After the battery was changed it used to come up but then would always go but now it doesn’t disappear
  6. Hello, please help I had my battery die so I got a new battery as it could hold new charge but now the power steering light won’t come off I turned the wheel to the right full lock then to the left even did it the other way it still didn’t work. I have drove the car and in the past that has made it come off. What more can I do 😭?
  7. Any help is needed however rustynuts was very helpful before but doesn’t accept messages. But if you can help please feel free.
  8. Hi Andy. I am contacting as back in 2019 I bought a Columbus unit RNS510 and you kindly coded it for me but after a couple months the unit screen stopped working. I see you do repairs, I took it to a auto sat nav repair shop and they said it had a data problem which was the reason the screen wasn’t working as the audio all works and buttons light up and work. They were charging a ridiculous amount over double at which I bought the unit for. Money is tight now I have a baby on the way and trying to buy a house so thought I could maybe bring the unit to you would you take a look at it for me. I included pictures of the unit the blank screen is the unit now the striped pictures are of the unit 3 years ago when it first broke. Much appreciated kind regards Adam @Rustynuts
  9. Ok thanks will do I’ll check today and yeah the back demister works but when I turn on the heater and air con the dials work but nothing comes out no air flow or heat at all
  10. What am I looking for corrosion or ? Also thanks for the help
  11. Lol I literally have to wear gloves and massive jacket due to the cold weather and no heating also means my car front widows and side never get cleared from mist or ice. Do you have any suggestions to fix heating and aircon the back heated window works
  12. Thanks anything on the aircon as that’s also urgent
  13. Thanks anything on the aircon as that’s also urgent
  14. Skoda Octavia MK2 2006 Elegance 2.0 Diesel I need some help firstly my air-con seems not to work as. The car was sat for a while and it hasn't worked since. The brakes seem slow and sloppy the brake pad light, TCS/ESP, ABS, ASR button are all illuminated when car is on. Codes which come up are. 00532 - 034 01/01 00290 - 035 01/01 01273 - 046 01/02 01134 - 100 01/01 00856 - 107 01/03 can replacing the cabin filter allow the aircon to blow as the car was sat for almost 6 months Also the rear wiper I fixed by replacing a year ago as it stopped permanently well it doesn’t move anymore surely it isn’t the rear wiper motor again do they wear out quickly due to the washer fluid going in between the cogs.
