  1. Holy thread revival! Mine was squeeking the other day, then stopped. Was your replaced under warranty? Thanks
  2. Hi All I was turning the car around the other day and reversed up a slight incline into someone's driveway - not steep and not fast. Suddenly there was a crunch, but it wasn't the front bumper scraping on the road, the car jolted to a stop and there was an error on the dash which I didn't manage to fully read - something about manoeuvre brake? Put the car back in drive and off I went just fine. It's a DSG / 4x4 if that helps. Any ideas? Thanks
  3. it will probably just be surface rust. the black "painted" parts are not painted very well, at all
  4. All black "painted" suspension parts on mine are looking older than the rest of the car already!
  5. Hi All A friend has a dash light on because the side airbag sensor (600909606) is faulty, and apparently no longer available from Skoda. Also, Golf parts are the same but the software if different.... Has anyone come across this? And replaced the part? If so, how? Thanks
  6. Mine definately regens more when it hasn't got VPower in it
  7. Morning All Had weird issue this morning when starting the car - 2018 VRS Diesel DSG 4x4 Car struggled to start on first key turn, but did start. Then as soon as I put the car in Drive and tried to pull away, it stalled. Tried again and had the same issue, but with "start car manually" message. I'm assuming this is a low battery issue? Thanks
  8. any chance you can upload this image again as it's no longer working? Or point me in the right direction?
  9. Correct. And the two other straps on the left of the pic are for a warning triangle
  10. To say I'm obsessed is an understatement
  11. I use https://www.cleanandshiny.co.uk/collections/interior-products/products/detail-factory-black-ultra-soft-detailing-brush-set to dust down first the nooks and cranny's, then a wipe down with a dedicated interior only microfibre and some suitably diluted APC.
  12. I wouldn't bother with the Turtle Wax stuff - if it does do anything (like hide swirls) then the detailer will just have to work harder to remove it and get back to bare paint to start the correction.
  13. I think it might be time to name and shame the VAG "specialist"
  14. yeah definitely take it up a level. The paint should not be peeling off, unless someone's already re-painted them, badly
