At 142k my 77TSI 2011 Polo seems to be having a series of problems. Has been parked for a while driving over the weekend quite sluggish and the catalytic convertor warning light came on in the dash. Drove home ok using a route with less hills.

Is this simply an error code you can attempt...

I have today replaced the front rotors and pads with Bendix Euro+

This is a rant.

Well, I thought the "For your own safety, please obey all traffic signs and directions" message I got every single time I turned the car on was patronising enough, yesterday on my weekly drive to Canberra, I got a constant warning every 30 minutes that the outside...

As many of you know the T Cross sold in Australia does not come standard with the obligatory Warning Triangle for T Crosses sold in Europe. I tried sourcing one from my local dealer and he said there were none in Australia! Tried eBay Australia for a second hand one with no luck and eventually found...

Hi folks,

As per the thread title where is the oil filter in a T6 and what's the access like for competent home mechanicals types?

Last night the check oil level warning started so I want to do an oil and filter change today.

Hi all,

My brake pad warning lamp is on, just discovered it's because the sensor is completely severed. Is there anyone in the Adelaide area, preferably down south, that could disable it with VCDS for me? I'm not particularly bothered by having it functioning. Happy to pay!

Weird question here.

Hi all, I'm getting a check oil warning despite there being plenty of oil on the dipstick. Could this leak be the culprit, and can anyone help me with the part number? See the small black tube with 90 degree bend? Thanks! Hmmm will try to attach photos in a reply...

I’ve a 2012 Passat Alltrack Diesel Wagon, that’s done a few km. I’m having a few issues with warning lights which are not consistent in staying on. The most recent has been a rear reversing bulb light, but this has been checked. Sometimes the warning light comes on and most times it doesn’t....

After a routine 12month service and a new starter motor fitted, my car has thrown a dpf warning light followed by a flashing glow plug and car going into limp mode. I took the car back to the garage and he checked it over and said the dpf isn't blocked but it's thrown a temp sensor warning code from...

Today, the fan (at a minimum) if my 2007/8 Multivan climate control stopped, without a hint or dash warning. It's not impossible that it struggled a bit before it went belly up.

How should I go about diagnosing the issue?
