[Fault codes P1592, P0101 P0229]

Hello all.

 

Im having issues with my vRS, I have no power in 1st gear at all and all my other gears are flat until 2000-2500rpm. Ive looked around the forum and I've seen many different issues this could be but because I've got 3 different codes i don't know which way to go about it. All fault codes are saying short with power.

 

Whilst driving i now and again get the coil light flashing and going into limp mode so by turning the car off and back on again it clears the fault. 

 

Last night driving to somerset in the heavy rain my car went into limp mode about 10 times in the space of 5-10 mile. My car no longer has an undertray on it due to someone doing work on my car and throwing it into a skip!! 

 

A friend who works in VW has said to me that he thinks it could be the wiring loom going to the MAP sensor as this runs across the front of the gear box and over time they do rub through and it can be a common problem. Due to the fact my car was taking a lot of water underneath and i was getting the coil light more than normal does it seem more likely that it is the wiring loom/map sensor taking in water?

 

Also, i have noticed my car has developed some sort of blow now, sounds like gasket. Im assuming any sort of leak exhaust side wouldn't have any effect on the car?

 

Thanks in advance for any help.

[Heaters only working on windscreen]

Hi all, I took my Octavia vrs off the road a year ago when I got my RS3 but now due to having it as a weekend car I’m now back on the Octavia. 

 

My blowers aren’t working in any positions, even the green light bar doesn’t work but if I press the windscreen button it starts blowing. I’ve seen posts about the resister etc but wouldn’t that stop the fan completely?

 

Could anyone shed some light please?

 

thanks

 

 

 

 

 

 

[12v socket 1p coin]

I've actually realised what you guys said about th diagram being the wrong way. Spotted the 25amp fuse has gone. Thanks for your replies

[12v socket 1p coin]

Hello all.. Not long replaced the 12v as it was a bit grubby inside. My son decided it would be a good idea to put a 1p coin in there yesterday. I've got it out this morning but the socket is not working. I've checked the 15amp fuse in the fuse box and it's fine.

Is the socket itself knackered?

[Lumpy idle after cold start]

Sorry it is more white and definitely smells like diesel. I'm picking up some NGK's today for it

[Lumpy idle after cold start]

Hello all, my car for a good while now runs lumpy for a few seconds after cold start. You have to hold it at around 1000 rpm until it settles down. I have noticed blue smoke as well sometimes. Does this sound like it could be a glow plug issue?

Thanks

[Reverse switch wiring snapped *URGENT*]

All sorted now. Just stripped wires and put a connector in. Working fine now

[Reverse switch wiring snapped *URGENT*]

Hello all, my reverse lights and sensors havnt been working so got myself a switch from euro car parts yesterday. Just took it all apart to find 1 of the wires has snapped. Am I best just stripping the wire back and putting a connector in? Also, the switch euro gave me has a spade connection on where as the one on my car already has a plug socket. Does the plug socket pull off or is it the wrong one.

Cheers

[Reverse problem on display]

Would that be the switch on the gearbox ?

[Reverse problem on display]

Right not actually managed to check wires yet but now found out my reverse lights are not working either if my display is not showing. It's gone worse than before and hardly ever works now.

[Reverse problem on display]

Thanks metblackrat I will have a look at this

[Reverse problem on display]

That is how it normally was but mine now seems to be workin from the clutch being pressed and depressed.

[Reverse problem on display]

My display works with clutch fully out but if I dip clutch back in it goes off even though it's still in reverse I have to dip the clutch again for it to bleep and show display

[Reverse problem on display]

Hello all I now have problem when reversing. When I select reverse I get the bleep and display comes up but as soon as i dip the clutch the display goes off until I release the clutch it bleeps again snd shows the display.. Anybody know the problem?

[Reverse sensor problem]

Looks like it was a bit of lacquer peel causing the constant beep. Still don't know why I'm getting the other beep though like I've selected reverse twice

[Reverse sensor problem]

Hi guys.. One of my reverse sensors keeps bleeping and showing on the screen that there is something close to me but isn't. Also when you put it in reverse and get the initial bleep, mine is actually doing it twice sometimes but about 5 seconds apart. Originally i thought it was due to dipping the clutch again but I don't think it is the case.

Any ideas? Thanks

[Speakers stopped working]

56 plate my car. It's been fine since it started working again. Only thing I've noticed is the radio use up quiet doen when I put it in reverse but doesn't no more

[Speakers stopped working]

No my radio doesn't have a phone button.

I didn't hear anything, sound was down and then when I turned it up nothin was there

[Speakers stopped working]

Well that's strange just got back in the car and now they are working!

[Speakers stopped working]

Hello all. Struggled to find the same topic in the search.

Finished worked and got in the car and on the way home I had no sound what so ever coming from my radio. Originally it was on aux but tried on cd, radio and nothing works. Anyone have any ideas what it could be.

Cheers

[SMF questions on vRS PD170]

Hello all. Just recently put a helix updated clutch and single mass flywheel into my vRS. It's a low mileage kit from my friends old Leon PD140 running hybrid turbo etc doing 220+ hp.

I remember it being 'chattery' on idle in his car but mine sounds slightly louder and when driving you can still slightly hear it at lower revs which I'm told is normal under load. The other issue I've found is ther when you doing 70-80mph and you accelerate you can hear a loud droning kind of noise.

The kit was from Awesome GTI and I was told that they over filled the gearbox oil to quiet down the noise a bit? This sound normal to anyone and what are other peoples experiences with SMF's?

Thanks, Dave

[ABS, ESP & Tyre pressure light all on]

Cheers, will have to get it plugged it at the weekend

[ABS, ESP & Tyre pressure light all on]

Thanks for the reply. Hopefully mine does the same or it is just a sensor. Earliest I can do anything with it is next weekend as I'm away working all this week, typical! Will have to get it plugged in when I get back home

[ABS, ESP & Tyre pressure light all on]

Hello all. Just been out in the car and all of a sudden my ABS, ESP and tyre pressure all come on together. Anyone have an idea what this could be?

Thanks
