On a 2012 Roomster 1.2 TSI but probably widespread amongst other models, hence posting here.

How do you get these fasteners off, please?

Want to buzz out some wiring and can't get ECU connectors out until these are undone.

DIY ABS warning Fix

Lambo1 · yesterday at 11:461 day

Yesterday our Roomster started beeping and flashing the warning light about the ABS. My first thought was to replace the ABS sensors – they are around £7 each and seem to be easy enough to replace by removing the rear wheels. I could also give the connections a bit of a clean at the same time. What are my chances chances of fixing the issue within 45 minutes of DIY work?

Brake Bleeding problem

Element7 · 28 May28 May

My driveway is on a slope downhill, I got the car down the drive very carefully without using brakes but just using clutch biting point in 1st gear. Position

Diesel / oil leak in engine bay - safe to drive ?

NICK87 · 29 May29 May

Hi. I have a leak of diesel or oil from my Octavia 1.6 diesel engine and I am taking it to get steam cleaned etc today before driving down to a garage for them to check the leak . Is it ok for me to continue to drive my car around ? I have been for quite a while with this burning smell, the garage has said it should be fine but I just wanted some other advice. No warning lights come on and the car runs ok . Thank you.

Superb iV charging flap
