  1. Hello. I'm having problem with my 2018 Skoda Kodiaq 4x4 190 dsg. It's putting on the glow plug light yellow & flashing then the car looses power. It usually occurs when l leave for work first thing in the day & head off up a hill. Not to steep but enough to drive the car a bit. It's a country road 60mph. Doesn't happen if l go in the opposite direction, down hill with car driving easier & once things gets warmed up no problems. I've had it at a garage & they diagnosed the egr & Nox sensor showing faults. I had the egr replaced & adaptions done but still problem occurred. They then replaced the exhaust high temp (dpf sensor) around back of engine drivers side but still problem. They've now replaced the intercooler as they though it was becoming restricted with carbon build up but still hasn't sorted the problem. 84k miles on the car. They've not mentioned any further issues with the Nox sensor as said at the beginning the egr could be giving it a faulse reading. It's also very costly just to replace if there's no clear indication it a problem. Wondering if anyone on here had experienced similar problems with there car. Oh I've also replaced the battery so have now spent a considerable amount of dosh & still no fix.
  2. Hi. Yes it got new oil & filter. Think it was around 60k miles but not sure what number the dsg was. I never new they needed servicing at 40k miles & the garage that does our servicing never said anything either. Don't think this was what caused the MCU issue though. I could likely find out the dsg number if l contacted the dealership that replaced it. Hawco in Peterhead. They were very helpful.
  3. Hi all. In the 5 yrs I've had my Kodiaq I've had some costly issues. Firstly had to replace the mechetronic unit on dsg gearbox & now under going new high pressure egr & intercooler. It's a 2018 190 4x4 edition. 84k miles & the garage doing the repairs are advising doing the timing belt & water pump shortly. The car is due a service soon but if l go for the belt & pump it will be another big cost. Gearbox will need serviced next yr along with that service. All this making me think I'd be better catching a bus!! Anyone had similar issues or just me. Car always gets decent runs.
