  1. You must be on a phone or tablet (like I usually am) In desktop mode... 4x4 170 Tdi Manual I guess the thermostat has failed stuck open by the sounds of the symptoms?
  2. As above, you can have 0480 in a few minutes.
  3. As you've posted here, I shall reply. 0480 is available. PM in next 5 minutes.
  4. You might have a firmware for the radio to apply, sadly cannot say it will fix (no changelog provided) Example image of what you need to find. Post back an image or text if your software train.
  5. Perfect, get your paintwork done for now, and put that on back burner.
  6. If you need the cleaning process, my friend did this for me (VAG master tech) He's tried a few products, and this one he rates as it foams up, rather than a limp liquid that doesn't seem to coat the DPF. Hopefully you don't need this process, but does work to clear soot.
  7. I know someone that had intermittent starting, like try 30 times to make it fire up. Turns out some numpty had given the fuse board inside the car a "drink" coffee we believe 🤔 It might not be your issue, but if you do immo off and it's no good, then that could be cause.
  8. A picture of top of the battery, we can see if it's the original (probably) and there will be a part number on the top that will help.
  9. Memory bad 😜 24g up to 40g exhaust lamp on 40g to 45g is limp mode
  10. Mine needed some product down the DPF sensor port to clean out some "baked" on soot. You can do a static regen, limp mode suggests you have 30g of soot, and at 40g you can no longer do a static regen, you will need some products to clean it. Ask your friend of a friend how much soot it is reading if you can, more for completing the picture (as and when)
  11. All good, just all I ask if you can is post back progress updates so we can see how you get on, and if anyone else has the issue they can be assured of what to do to fix theirs. Best of luck with it! 🤝
  12. Probably needs a new screen then sadly, or if you're lucky the Spring will help you when it arrives to stave off a fix.
  13. DPF Checking (VCDS or similar tool to interrogate) Don't quote me on all of this, but fuel pressure low on the rail usually means the sensor is reading a low pressure (I mean it's quite literal) so could be sensor is going wrong, but could be the pump in the tank is not pushing the fuel to the rail (could be a little blip to drop the pressure in rail) The lambda sensor is suggesting a wiring fault/short to earth or such (maybe inspectiong will show a wire completely bare or broken) It might pay you to locate someone with VCDS if you don't have one, or purchase one so you can do some live readings of MVB (Measured Value Blocks) on test drives. I always think the tool pays for itself in spades myself, a few trips to the garage = same.
  14. Ideally take an image of what you have now fitted, then we can say for certain if you have EFB or AGM technology. I can then find you a 100% drop in battery, or others can if you post up. To answer your coding adapting question, here's one I made earlier to help answer this FAQ.
  15. You can try to find out what software is inside the infotainment system (it won't break anything) Hold down the Menu button for at least ten seconds to enter the hidden menu of engineering hopefully. Look around to see if you can find "Software Train" if not glean as much information as you can and post back images. There are often 2 or 3 intertwined systems at play, the SW update to MMI, OCU (emergency call error you are seeing) and for some VC (virtual cockpit) You cannot just update one, you often then see errors in the other, but for sure the OCU unit has many updates for it, as they are terrible for spitting out errors.
  16. It's the headlight main connection on each, a 14-pin one. I've decoded which pin to check so you don't have to, check colours of connection wires match. Wiring diagrams available in full on erWin Skoda for 7 Euro for 1hr access if you need more. The flipper gets the power from a central electronic controller inside car to send the signal to flip the shutter. We need to test if signal makes it to headlight, and then test in other locations next.
  17. I don't have a MIB1 Columbus, so not sure if those maps will work. I think you can use any SD Card for the Columbus maps, but could be wrong. Either way best of luck.
  18. Gotcha, busy times here. Try this thread for all things Columbus
  19. Android is a bugger for trying to change security permissions, mine does a regular sweep and deactivates "unused" permissions. Good luck taming the beast.
  20. You have a MIB2 Amundsen, definitely not a MIB1 Your part number on the left, as seen in your image.
  21. Just in case you have this style of J519 T52aa (A Pin 14)
  22. Yes AFAIK that is where it is on a RHD
  23. I just updated the post above, link to the map section, and direct link for ECE #7, if you can check this is correct map file you have in your downloads?
  24. Worse case scenario is factory reset on infotainment system, do that as last resort. It should be able to be done, but in VAG style, it's very convoluted.
