Scirocco Central

Yes the car doesn’t have sensors, it takes readings from the wheel speed sensors.
The seller if it’s a wheel company should be able to give you the correct accurate information, if not maybe try a different company.

Would give the same advice.
Have the car scanned for codes. What were the symptoms when it happened to yours?

Yes have to agree with finetrond on this one. Maybe replace the pair for carbon or something else that you’d like rather than spend that sort of money. As for the headlight washers I’d say more likely to be the pump, but it’s worth checking the fuses first. Next check power to the pump to see if you...

They seem to be widely available online - dealer and lllparts etc.

Quite often I find myself overthinking things!

Always had good experiences with Eibach with BMW but when I was researching for my Roc i found most went with H&R as they just seemed to work better for this particular car.

Well done - great fix. I’m sure as the cars are getting older this is going to help other users.

I’m not entirely sure that’s what he means.
On mine (it’s a pre facelift) there is a little access panel that you pull off that exposes the screws to remove. Does yours have this?

Sadly this forum isn’t as active as it once was. I’m not sure of the exact figures for your model but On idle 1 bar sounds about right, I would expect 2 - 3 bar on acceleration.You could check live data to see how accurate it is but I’d assume the gauge is a guide rather than an exact measurement. I...

I did mine for mot this year, I went for brembo all round. Parts cost me less than £180 (But that was using staff discount) brakes feel much better than they did before but I don’t know what brand was previously fitted. Brembo are obviously excellent, but if they aren’t for you, Delphi, Bosch or pag...

There is a possibility it could be to do with the pipes you have taped up. The turbo actuator is controlled by vacuum, as are the brakes, although the vacuum only provides braking assistance (hence they work better when you are driving) any loss in vacuum pressure is likely to cause performance issu...

Just because the battery has been recharged doesn’t necessarily make it ok. If the battery is completely dead it may not charge. In addition to this it may also make jump starting hard. If you are 100% sure the battery is okay, if it’s not even turning over the next step would be to check the starte...

Try the link below. It was something I really wanted to do but could never find a reason to convince the Mrs to allow it, (the map was only done to increase MPG so we wouldn’t have to use as much fuel

It’s the same with most main dealer prices. They will most likely for things like that be substantially more expensive. £560 for a VW specialist sounds reasonable to me, you could probably find a local garage who would do it for a little less, however the specialist is likely to have more experience...

Sorry to hear that. Hope you manage to sort it out.
Sorry to say there’s some horrible little sh1t’s out there.

I’m not sure if the person who was trying to gain access to theirs ever did, or they just sorted it and didn’t post on here. From what I can see on mine as above to take glove box out and physically look at the switch, unless you are a contortionist and can get your hand around far enough through th...

Glow plug light flashing acts as an engine management light so if it does flash you need to scan the car.
Hopefully the new part will resolve your issue.

Assuming the gearbox is compatible, you’d need the cable linkage bracket to fit the replacement gearbox.
I’m not sure your troubles will end there though. Is there a reason why you changed it? I’m assuming they will most likely have different ratios as well.

P0299 usually points towards a vacuum leak. Check for and splits / holes in the vacuum pipes.

What faults did you have?
