Wheel bearing could be anywhere from 40-100 pounds, labour shouldn’t be more than £50.

If you're referring to the right side of the displa,y there's an easier way to take it out. You can insert a long zip tie from above the display, next to where the display clicks onto the dashboard, and use the side wall of the dashboard to guide the zip tie until it appears bellow. the you just need to pull both ends od the zip tie towards you. I wish I could come up with this 1h earlier and without my fingers becoming all bloody.

As we say every day is a learning day. It’s your lucky day. In Volkswagen vehicles, the glow plug warning light can sometimes illuminate due to issues that are not directly related to the glow plugs themselves, such as a faulty brake pedal switch. This occurs because the electronic systems within modern vehicles, including VW cars, are highly interconnected. These systems are managed by multiple electronic control units (ECUs) that oversee various functions like the engine, transmission, and braking. These ECUs communicate with each other over a network, commonly known as the CAN bus. The glow plug light in VW vehicles serves a broader purpose than merely indicating the status of the glow plugs. It can also act as a general warning light for various engine-related issues, especially those that may impact engine performance or emissions. The brake pedal switch plays a critical role in several vehicle functions, including activating the brake lights and signaling to the engine control unit that the brakes are being applied. This information is vital for the proper operation of systems like cruise control, automatic transmission shift interlocks, and even some aspects of the vehicle’s start-stop system. When the brake pedal switch fails, the ECU may not receive the correct signal indicating brake application, which can lead to confusion in the vehicle's electronic system. This confusion can manifest as unexpected behavior or by triggering warning lights. The ECU monitors a range of parameters to ensure the vehicle operates safely and within emissions standards. If it detects a fault with the brake pedal switch, it may respond by illuminating the glow plug warning light, even though the issue isn’t directly related to the glow plugs. This is because, in many VW vehicles, the glow plug light is also used as a generic malfunction indicator light (MIL) for certain types of engine or emissions-related issues. In some cases, the ECU may enter a fail-safe mode when it detects a faulty brake pedal switch, limiting engine power or disabling certain functions to protect the vehicle’s systems. As part of this fail-safe mode, the glow plug light might blink to alert the driver to the problem, emphasizing the need for immediate attention. When the brake pedal switch malfunctions, diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) are usually stored in the ECU, indicating a problem with the brake switch circuit. These codes can be identified using a diagnostic tool. The glow plug light may remain illuminated or continue blinking until the underlying fault is resolved, and the brake switch is repaired or replaced. In summary, the interconnected nature of the vehicle's ECUs and the multifunctional role of the glow plug light in VW cars explain why a faulty brake pedal switch could cause this light to illuminate. Resolving this issue typically involves replacing the faulty switch and clearing the error codes from the ECU, which should restore the glow plug light to its intended function.

To diagnose and address the issue of random shutdowns, you can start with a couple of key steps: 1. Begin by inspecting the fuel supply. This can be done by detaching the pipe that runs from the pump to the injection rail. This will allow you to check if there's an issue with the fuel flow. 2. Next, examine the timing belt as this is a common cause of random shutdowns. Carefully remove the timing belt cover, which is located on the right-hand side of the engine. This will give you access to inspect the belt for any signs of wear or damage. It's important to note that if the timing belt is indeed broken, avoid excessively cranking the engine. Over cranking with a snapped belt can lead to further damage to the engine head and other internal components. It's crucial to handle these components with care to prevent additional issues.

Yes it was the relay, I have come across this many times not only golf even in Passat, touran etc. if it’s starter motor it won’t turn, given that your battery isn’t flat.

Pink and white

Hey I got pink and green for slot 9 and 10

Flap motor

Thank you so much man, I just noticed that my brake lights are on when I’m not pressing the pedal, so you must be right. I think you just saved me a lot of headaches.😁

@@g.raklyov no prob mate hope you get sorted.

Same here can't adjust the date while i can config the sw butons in swc app, how to connect the 2 wires swc+ and swc gnd in the canbus if i don't have a plug ? How to know which pin to use

@@crocop2o12 sorry, I don't know. I had all the plugs.

I tried putting the gear in D (manually by openning the gearbox and pressing the yellow button) then the dash does turn on but I can't start the car while on D, when I move back to Parking the dash goes back to turning on and off every sec.

Tick tick quick flash on/off indicates either loose connection or weak battery, make sure battery voltage is over 12.4 before you try and turn, when it will get load it does go down but if it goes below 11.5v it will do the same. But again make sure this relay is pushed down, take it out and push it down. Lastly it could be starter as well. When you try and turn and it makes noise but won’t turn but makes noise first time and next time it starts it’s definitely starter

@@Motorsexpert I went and checked my battery, it is 100% as good as new. I also fixed the starter and now there is no tick sound but still the car takes time to turn on, sometimes dash keeps restarting (all electrics in car) and I have to wait until battery light turns on dash then switch the key. No idea what could be the problem, some days it works perfect and some it takes time to run.

Any new update ref this issue fix?

Fuel regulator

Thanks

What happens if you have changed this fuel suction control valve and had it remapped to learn it’s values and still revs up and down on its own. Up over one and drops below 0.5

Mate no need change nothing, just cut them and connect 2.2-2.5 resistor and that’s it Car go back to normal No need to do anything plus u can take out the flaps like when u delete EGR on discovery 3 . Cheers
