Looking for a bit of advice.

At the Yorkshire meeting today, Yellowcupra kindly offered to do a Vag-Com check to see if I had any error codes.

For some reason he was unable to make a connection with the ECU.

It worked fine on two other cars there, any ideas what may me wrong that it?

Cheers

What ECU?

Did it connect with any ECU's on our car?

Yellowcupra plugged it into the ODB and it wouldn't read anything I think it was

Cheers Antony, thats what I meant to say

Cheers Antony, thats what I meant to say

sorry to hijack the thread but I take it you got back ok,I didn't realise you went that way as well, probably took about the same time to get home. Was good to meet you all today

Got back fine thanks. Baffled how I managed to get in front of you though. Really good to meet you, and look forward to coming up for a pint or three!!

02 Octavia vRS?

Aftermarket radio? Year, Make, Model, Engine?

1.8T RS 2002, no aftermarket radio

Checked the fuses with a multimeter (not visually)?

What does VAG-COM > Options > Test say?

Just checked all the fuses, all working fine.

Can't remeber exactly the words that came up on the computer screen, but it was definitely not recognising it.

Perhaps Yellowcupra would be able to shed some light on the exact message it came up with.

At least it came up with one fault................it doesn't do Vag-Com.

History of the car as best I know, it was a lease car for three years, as such I would be surprised if it has had the radio changed, which I understand does have an impact on the K Line (so i was told).

:confused:

Do you have a handsfree kit fitted with mute lead interface?

Nope, as far as I can tell everything is standard, unless of course one was fitted and then removed before I purchased the car.
