It's interesting to read this thread - I'm keeping out of commenting as some of the posts appear to demonstrate how much of an isolated bubble world some people live in that appears to be slightly disconnected from reality and full of unconscious and confirmation bias.

Isn't the fix here the usual vag one whereby the permanent live and switched live simply need to be swapped over in the connector as vag vehicles have them reversed compared to others?

And some of the Koreans too for new models I understand - it seems that only the 'premium' marques are sticking withy touch screens for now (Mercedes for example).

Maybe give Volks Tek on Callywhite Lane in Dronfield a call... They may be able to help for a few beer tokens

I just thought "it's Lady E so it's got to be prestige of some sort" and it was the only 4x4 type thing I could think of that has a 'halfords' roof spoiler... 🤣)

Mercedes AMG GLA 45 S 4matic+ ???

I reckon she's back to a Vitara...

Yep found that and that works great too. Device update and button functions tweaked already 😃

Last update for me here .. I ended up with an AAWireless Two and it works perfectly, unlike the Ottocast. I'll be passing the latter on to AN other.

That's similar to what I did with mine albeit I used some foam packing I had available to hold it all in place when I closed the hatch

Private buyers tend to look at total cost of having the car be that over a set periods or outright and try and keep it as low as possible.

Look up New Automotive - where that story about petrol stations not stocking diesel comes from - and you'll see the 'spin'...

Sounds like the alarm has activated when you started charging it...

What was done at the last service...

Measure your existing ones...???

I have often used Bosch in the past and round them very good but this time I decided to try 20Twenty ones from Autobulbsdirect and they've been excellent over the last few months

Definitely a retrofit fuse holder... Pearl Consumables 30A 12V Mini Blade Inline Fuse Holder - Screwfix Perhaps you're mishearing where the clicking is coming from? If you look left it's attached to the +ve terminal of the battery... probably feeding a dashcam or an accessory / amp / lights of some sort.

That looks to be a waterproof electrical fuse holder.

I'd suggest this is the reason - we had exactly the same for a while after I replaced the fan resistor in our Fabia with a pattern part. It disappeared after a week or so.

Both are EA211 the 1.5 with a. Improved miller cycle and management etc https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_EA211_engine STR PerformanceEA211 1.5 TSI: evolution of the 1.4 TSI, Miller technolog...However people do confuse the ea211 1.4tsi with the original ea111 1.4tsi twincharger

The 1.4tsi act is basically the same engine as the 1.5tsi act with a few minor changes . They are both EA211 engines

At a guess that's probably due to the colour temperature of the LEDs that means the light doesn't reflect back off the wet road

The time period might be based on driving time rather than just lapsed time - I really can't remember... However, I do recall many years ago some comments about putting the radio in a freezer for a while that seemed to reset things but whether it worked or not I cannot say.

From memory it's just a time-based issue - leave it long enough and it will let you enter a new number...

I'm not familiar with it but a small amount of tiger seal would probably do the job... It kept the roof to windscreen seal in position on my old Honda Civic at silly speeds and also held the sill trims on too.
