Replacing Old Head Unit

Followers

3 January, 201115 yr

The detachable head unit on my stereo is shot so its time for a replacement. Given that it is a Blaupunkt and not one of the Skoda head units do I still need to worry about getting a fascia adapter, wiring adapter, aerial booster and swap the red and yellow wires? Or can I just plug in a new head unit? I'm not aiming at anything high end, probably grab a bargain in Halfords or Argos. Thanks.

Airbag error, what can reset it?

Airbag error, what can reset it?

rik1254 · 22 October, 20241 yr

During my hardwire dash cam install, I removed the trim which holds the passenger airbag switch and unplugged it. Now (unsurprisingly) I have an airbag error on the dash. I’ve cycled the ignition a few times in hopes that would reset it, I also tried enabling and disabling the airbag with the key, still no joy. Is this something I can reset at home? I’m hoping something like ODBeleven free plan can do it, but it’s difficult finding out what the free plan can actually do.

2015 VRS TDI - Coolant loss from expansion tank

Sharpy64 · 22 June22 Jun

Hi All, I know this is a topic that seems to have been covered a million times but my vRS has become a problem child. It was losing a small amount of coolant and I would get the odd whisp of steam from the back, I diagnosed a leaking EGR Cooler (confirmed with off car pressure test) and a small water pump leak. I replaced both and thought my work here was done. However it now seems to have made losses worse, this time from the reservoir, so yesterday I did a 90 min motorway drive and by the t

Database is maintained by Phonostar.de and Škoda doesn't hide that but one of their answer sounded similar to . . .
