Further on with the Saga of rear wiper unit.1st one sent out was or had been dropped bad nasty copy sent back ,2nd I got from Germany even checked vin,sweeped once everytime I started car then died.so slightly better crap copy, 3rd time luck from another UK supplier. Looked OK. Doesn't fit by miles so that's going back and hopefully tomorrow will pick up a so called genuine one from nearest skoda main stealers.£83 plus vodka and ttonic.wiring been checked but i bey it's not right
-
Body control module .nightmare if that's foopard we shall see
-
BCM is ?
-
Also apart from wiper not working at all now ,the number plate lights light up when I start car then go off and come on with heated rear window aswell.all fuses are fine too
-
Checked all wiring in tailgate and through the hinge bellows all OK.ive just had delivery of new wiper motor unit but I'm having an auto electrician check it tomorrow as I'm sure it's more than just the wiper motor is duff.unless motor earth's though its mounts,have this feeling I've a gremlin

2011 vrs combi.intermitant fault on rear wiper stops for abit then goes again motor is buzzing too. Today my rear number plate lamps glow when I open tailgate and don't work when I turn lights on and lamp fault on dash,would duff wiper cause this or would it be a wiring fault further back. Both bulbs are OK getting 0 volts when lights on and tailgate shut when open 3.5 volts so bulbs glow abit

Interesting, I'd just noticed increase of whine sort of noise.then when I had the intake air leak code come up I also had 2nd clutch below tolerance show up.dsg working perfectly as it should at moment .quote I've ha shows 450 labour .595 clutch pack .75 adaptive drive.463 duel mass flywheel.plus Vodafone and tonic
-
Come to think of it I didn't know DSG had a duel mass flywheel ,only knew it had two clutch plates
-
And I've just realised I've had car as my daily 3 years
-
Local independent skoda audi specialist. Theve not road tested it .just asked for qoute as had 2nd clutch plate low code come up
-
After much prodding and packing thoughts were leaky injector seal,once stripped it turned out to be failed intake manifold gasket on my 2011 vrs 1.4 .so not so expensive to sort. On the other had I've 1 dsg clutch low so clutch kit needed and prob flywheel cars done 76.000 been quoted £1899 to replace and set up .is that average or too much I know clutch pack kit is 545 ish does it always need duel mass aswell .cars running perfect gears perfect just a tad whiny at low speeds with window open lol

As above ,has stopped once before but it stopped today for no reason

As I thought had put her to paddles before now to keep her in gear as the slightest loose surface she will light up, I'll see what she's like with tc off, I've alot of gravel and crappy roads where I am always does it pulling out specially if having to do in a hurry
