Hi all.
I'm a recent owner of a Skoda Kamiq with DSG transmission.

I've never had DSGs before so unsure what to expect, i only did a very short test drive before i purchased the car and did not notice anything out of the ordinary (in comparison to automatics)

However...

I'm having issues with my partners golf, started last Wednesday when she had the tyre pressure monitor system failure come up on the dash, followed by ABS, hill hold, ESC and Auto stop start warnings coming up.

You Guys may or may not know that its quite common for rain/water to leak in via the High mount Centre Stop light on late model Crafters.

Hi all,

I’ve recently purchased a 21 Passat Alltrack and having some funky infotainment issues. When using car play after 10 min or so, typically on a warm day (the screen does heat up) and the map or Spotify screen etc goes pink and begins to blur out.

Hi,

The start-stop feature in my car acts too quickly; the engine switches off the moment I stop at a traffic light/intersection etc., or even when slowly negotiating a speed breaker (bump).

My Golf had the same feature but not as sensitive or acting quickly.

Can I turn off the start stop system?
it used to be enough to adjust the volts from 7.6 to 12 or the temperature and it worked, so it doesn't work on a new car.

I have VCDS and VAG can Pro.
thank you for the advice.

I’ve created a thread to see what type of noises owners are experiencing in their Tiguan and Tiguan Allspace. I understand that noise level and type can be very subjective but I was interested in what people actually “hear” in their Tiguan.

My 2018 Alltrack Wolfsburg (First reg 28 Feb 201 has 50k on it and lately I've noticed that the start stop won't allow the engine to stop when at traffic lights etc. I thought this was because of driving less due to Covid19 but even doing over 90km in a day (over half hhighway running) 3 days straight...

Does anyone know how too permanently...

I recently changed both low beams globes in my 2011 R. I removed the front bar and both headlights to make it easier (fat hands and had the time).
