Hi and welcome.

1. Yes.

2. Hastings were very reasonable for me (42 loads of NCB and 0 points) but they don't insure re-mapped cars so I've gone elsewhere now.

3. Magic tree air freshener worth an extra 3 bhp. 75 quid would get you a panel filter and some Oram Silverstars or similar plus a bit left over for some Shell v power (Optimax)

Passenger seat electrical controls not working after a new windscreen was fitted

Passenger seat electrical controls not working after a new windscreen was fitted

Graham Butcher · 15 minutes ago15 min

This might be just a coincidence. But I have just had a new windscreen fitted following a rock being thrown up by a lorry's wheels hitting it, which left a small chip, which after a few days became a long crack and was growing. The screen was replaced last week, and yesterday I discovered the seat was not responding to the controls. I cannot see any fuse listed in the owner's manual which states it supplies power to the seats. The driver's seat is working as usual, which made me think it must b

Gearbox Emergency Mode

DRW · Thursday at 19:332 days

Last September my Kamiq 1.5 DSG 2020reg (regularly serviced) displayed 'Gearbox in Emergency Mode'. Very near home so able to limp home. Dealer took it in and fixed it under extended warranty. All okay until a month ago when it happened again, this time far from home. Switched off the car, restarted and all back to normal and drove perfectly. Yesterday it happened again and only D2 available. Started car today, no problem, all working, no warning sign. I'll be contacting the dealer again

Fabia Mk2 Vcds Abs

StephFR · 14 April14 Apr

Hello everyone, I'm experiencing an issue with my brake pedal (basically going to the floor), and I suspect it might be related to the ABS module. I tried to scan the ABS unit for fault codes using VCDS, but I’m unable to communicate with it: it seems like CAN communication is not available. Is this normal on a Fabia Mk2 (5J), or should I definitely be able to access the ABS module via CAN? Any advice or feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

1.5 Tsi Power Cutting Out

Missph · 16 February, 20242 yr

Evening, just looking to see if anyone is experiencing the same issue as me with my Karoq 1.5 Tsi (73 plate)…. So the car has perhaps half a dozen times or more cut out completely when slowing down, no stall / kangaroo or otherwise, power simply gone, resulting in me having to restart the car when in a rolling motion. Very unnerving especially with traffic approaching. I’ve tried to recreate the event on quiet roads with no success so I’ve no idea what action causes this. I had thought
