Rear 12V socket removal
Mine doesn’t have that option but I bet that’s even more annoying Something like this should be good https://www.amazon.co.uk/YIGZYCN-OEM-8W0919311-12V-Cover/dp/B0D67S7BCM/ref=asc_df_B0D67S7BCM?mcid=959b066a0ddf3cf0a0415c18b73e78a9&hvocijid=6320020724946015883-B0D67S7BCM-&hvexpln=74&tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=696285193871&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=6320020724946015883&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9191904&hvtargid=pla-2281435176858&psc=1&gad_source=1 Can get cheaper ones but silver bit might help you find it if it goes walkies 😂

Rear 12V socket removal
I changed mine as my cover also snapped off. In truth I should have just left it alone as I dropped a screw deep into the boot and had to dismantle most of trim to get to it If I remember correctly, you need to loosen one part of the trim(loads of screws) then unlock it from the back, I undone the screw by the 12v thinking you needed to but you don’t until the final part. Unfortunately that’s all I remember as I got into a proper hulk mode thinking it would be super easy but turned into a nightmare Also remember to remove the fuse as it’s permanently live, which I forgot and blew a fuse

It’s a shame I only have the limited vin version of vcds, otherwise I’d say travel to Hampshire and I’ll do it for you for free, but as I don’t I would charge, then the cost of fuel you’d be well out of pocket. Have a look for independents by you, might be able to squeeze you in for some beer tokens

updating sat-nav map
Ah I’m not familiar with Amundsen unit, the Columbus has a built in hard drive so the maps get downloaded to that you can remove the SD card and maps work Here’s the official steps but you’ve probably seen them already I’ve been updating my Columbus fine for years so you’ll be golden

updating sat-nav map
Fine to use your own SD card, just make sure it’s 32gb or 64gb But what head unit have you got? Hopefully it’s Columbus, post a picture here if you can

AC failed just after having a new alternator fitted.
Go straight back to whoever buggered this up

Is it too expensive?
How has it done so little miles? Kinda sounds like a lemon car hmm
-
Dashboard Warning signs
Hmm should be alright then, but probably is past it best. Do you have a scanner just in case it’s not the battery?
-
Dashboard Warning signs
First question, how old is the battery? Aging batteries die in cold and heat

Coolant leak on 2024 Superb.
Tbh I’d ring them and say “take your time” considering you’ve been given an S3 😂

Fuel filter change
Do you use VCDS to prime it? Or just take out old and put in new? Not sure if it’s advisable to empty in completely in case of debris, put new filter in then refill with new diesel?

Dsg shifter emergency release.
This should help, slightly different model but should be under that foam

AdBlue
That sounds sensor related then to me. Open the bonnet and look around the coolant reservoir, someone had it on here where it crystallised on a pipe due to a leak

Sudden issue. Eml light on
100% get it scanned then write down all codes if it doesn’t have a timestamp (does if it’s vcds at least others should be the same), clear codes, continue driving until it happens again then rescan. To me sounds spark or fuelling issue but only a wild guess

OIL LIGHTS COMES ON BUT I HAVE 5L OF OIL IN THE CAR
Does your car have Adblu? If it does then wipe your finger inside the exhaust tip, there should hardly be anything on your finger If your finger is black as hell then you’ve got black smoke coming out which could be a number of things but should set you on the right path, you may not even notice it whilst driving which is why the finger test is good If you’ve not got adblu then that procedure might not work

AdBlue
Did you try the ignition only on for 1 minute then start car?
