Q1: Park Lights
Is it possible to have the ignition (while not driving), and have the park lights off?

When I plug a USB device that needs power (not data) into the USB port, power is supplied at all times. e.g. for a USB...

Hi all,

I bought a Mk 6 Golf GTI almost a year ago and all i can say is i hate it but i love it.

The dash lights love to light up now and then, turning the inside of my car into a night club.

It has a few mods but also a couple of bumps and scratches thanks to...

Hi all, am new here and a girl so please be nice!! Am hoping to get some advice before I take my lil golf to the mechanics. Yesterday without warning my car wouldn’t start. The display was telling me to put in park or neutral, obviously it was in park when I tried to start. I worked out how to lift...

I have an old T4 in the back yard, retired 10 years ago. The ignition key refused coming out 5 yr back or more. I’ve just started using the locking fuel cap from T4 on my T5 that is experiencing locking actuator probs on passenger door. I’d like to get that key out as a spare. Figure the T4 auto...

I am installing the microswitch kit 5Q0713128A to fix the "Leave vehicle in P" problem.
On the YouTube videos and the VAG recall document for US/Canada it looks straightforward (apart from moving all the trim panels & stuff). However the kit has 2 (two) terminals which accept the...

Ive done many of the OBDEleven mods over the last couple of years and although I don't use it often, I suspect one of them has upset the Park Assist function.

When I try to engage it, I get a message saying park assist has completed.

I'm hoping someone else has come across...

Hey guys,
i have a passat wolfsburg 2017 model that currently doesnt have park assist. Was wondering what it would take to retrofit it as i believe it has all the sensors such as front A5 camera for Drive Assist, Front parking sensors, rear parking sensors with camera. I would assume i would...

This is just a heads up for anyone trying to diagnose a failed reverse camera.

The Park Assist system on my B7 Passat stopped working (beepers, proximity indications and reverse camera). After many hours of troubleshooting I tracked it down to a dead reverse buzzer. It's just a 50 ohm,...

Hi all,

Need help. Today I got my windows tinted in the morning and everything was fine.

But later in the afternoon when I went to pick up my kid from daycare, I would be driving and every time I stopped at lights or during standstill traffic, the boot would just automatically...

Hi folks.

Had the Parking Brake Fault Light come on after changing the rear brake pads (2010 Tiguan)

Did the mechanical wind-out of the electric motors.

Brakes themselves are working fine - its just the Fault Light, and it's impact on the operation of the Park...

Hey fellow raised van dubbers,

I have a 2011 Ex Ambo which i converted to a motorhome and raised etc. We've done about 60,000km since the fitout and have found one of our shocks to be leaking hydraulic fluid (albeit slowly).

The shock is the Bilstein BE5-E035 (-M2)

Gooday all................again...

I'm having a bit of confusment here.

Is there a 'Park' position on the auto selector in the Crafter ?

I've got a MY15 RS162 fitted with reverse camera, which was an option back then.

Issue #1
Put it in reverse, it goes to the rear cam, all is well, as per photos below:



But then I noticed that in a lot of online photos, there's this alternative screen on...

I went to the shop and reversed out of the shops and it worked fine, then when I got home and went to reverse it said not available.

Hi guys,

I have got a B8 Passat Sedan and I recently been getting this weird squeaky noise when getting in and out of the car. The noise comes from the rear of the car and if I open my boot and repeatedly push the rear of the car down with my hand (like a pumping action), the squeak will...
