Brake Disc Size Query
Hi Folks, I have a 2014 vRS TDI Estate and I need discs and pads all round, But everywhere I look lists 3 different sizes for the front and 2 for the rear. Is there any easy way to get the right parts ordered first time round? Cheers!

Well @SashaGrace to the rescue. Turns out I’d made a mistake in the wiring. the directional lines work, however the distance indicators, well, look a bit short to be useful. But not really too worries since the distance indicators from the sensors are displayed on screen too. now to figure out what’s next. wireless CarPlay and Charging? wheel refurb decisions, decisions

According to the packaging and order it was an NTSC camera I purchased. That doesn’t mean it’s what arrived though. I don’t know what a Pal camera when it should be NTSC looks like, if your confirming that my example looks like this I’ll chase with the seller

Ah ok, Yes that makes perfect sense, I just meant odd from my perspective, of assuming that the car would believe it was built the same year it was registered, Like Im expecting someone to code in a date of birth as it rolls out the factory or something. Long and short of it is my worries of a clocked dud car have been alleviated. Now, If only I could get this blooming camera working. Im going to re make the connections at the back of the stereo again over the weekend, and double check my power is good, If no avail there, Ill run a temporary fused power down the car from the battery as a test.

You are correct. The 10th Digit is matching up with 2015 year, all be it first reg in 2014. How very odd.

Oh for goodness sake. Don’t I look a tool now 😂😂😂😂 Doesn’t explain the issue with the year though. I’ll dig out my paperwork tomorrow but it was definitely a 2014 car

Now I’m even more confused. Because I noticed this when looking at the fault codes. The mileage reads +108k. Where as there is 68k on the clocks. Now the stereo isn’t the original, so is that the mileage from the car the stereo was removed? Or has my car been messed with?

Perfect. Thank you. All wired and plugged, but no rear view. I’m assuming it needs coded in at this point, but I can’t seem to find an option in Carista to enable it. Will have to look again later. At least the trunk handle still works for now.

Ah, This I did not know. Any ideas how you release the blue clip from the black holder? I had been assuming they just pushed in, but this explains it now....... Thank you!

All wiring sorted except for the back of the HU, Every time i try and push the pins home in the blue connector they bend, broken a couple now, and think Ive got one stuck in the connector. Anyone with any experience any hints for me?

2014 VRS Infotainment Swap
Afternoon all. Finally got a bit of time to look at this, having ordered the wrong camera and having to wait for the new one to arrive (DUH) So ive managed to get the cabling run up the bootlid and down the car (thanks to @SashaGrace previous posts, Got it run in on my lunchtime today. Tomorrow Im intending on fitting the new handle, wiring and refitting the last piece of boot trim. My question is though, around the red wire thats sticking out of the RCA, once the RCA is cut off it leaves 3 wires. Red, black and another colour. Is it required? Do I assume that red and black are +vs and -ve and just wire them to the block on the back of there stereo? and if so, does it matter which way round they are fitted? I read on a post on here what positions theyre in, ill have to find it and refresh myself before tomorrow. Also, Does anyone know what colours +ve and -ve to the wiper motor are? as im going to pick power from the camera from here, by just stripping back and joining in. Thanks for the help!

If you have canton then you’ll need the screen the stereo and the canton amp all with CP removed. That will be a costly exercise

2014 VRS Infotainment Swap
Back again! So my reversing camera has just arrived, Just the cheap one from aliexpress. Ive read through a few posts on here about it, Run the cable, cut the RCA, add terminals and wire to 6/12 on the Blue plug. However, when I cut the RCA plug off, theres 3 cables. so, Im assuming one is + and 1 is - from the camera video feed, but what is the 3rd? and is it needed? Ive seen reverse signal feed mentioned but not sure if that applies here. Im just waiting on my terminals to arrive then ill be fitting. Id love to cut the bootlid to fit the larger handle, but this will have to do for now.

What do you mean original equipment settings?

2014 VRS Infotainment Swap
Well. I have to say. That went a lot smoother than expected and looks like everything working. Car play is there anyway! And just lifts the look of the whole interior. even has an estate when in car mode. thankfully all the reading I did on here paid off, knowing where to trim plugs etc in advance, how to remove the A/C control etc. So thank you all. now to decide what’s next!

The part that has arrived is the smaller, I believe 8inch screen. From reading the 9.2 required the MIB3 dvd drive.

Well My parts all arrived today. Stereo - 5Q0 035 874 - MIB2 Skoda Amundsen (doesnt appear to have a CD Drive? But does have an SD card, assumingly Maps) Screen - 5E0 919 605 N - (2017 screen?) USB - 5QD 035 726 J And GPS aerial. Doesnt look OEM, so hopefully will function ok inside the DashBoard. Hopefully it all goes together when I get a chance to fit
