So I wanted a change of colour for the caddy so a few weeks ago I had my 19” Rotiform DTM wheels refurbished in Porsche Neodyme Gold, what do you think? These are my favourite wheels on my van so far, but I’ll be looking for a new set of rotiform wheels for next year

Just some pics of my 14 yr old hatchback.

-Stage 2
-200 cell high flow cat, no resonator, dual mufflers
-CAI
-H&R coilovers
-Rear sway bar
-SS brake lines
-Drilled/slotted rotors
-Short shifter
-17in Sparco Pro Corsa wheels (18lbs a piece)

She's a fun ride.

Anybody else?

For new iD Polo Launch cars

Every winter my polo is steamed up on the inside. I’ve had it in to the dealership who say nothing is wrong, does anyone know if a potential fix? it’s infuriating, it takes nearly ten minutes to be able to drive every time I use the thing when the weather turns.

Amigos buen dia, queria ver si a alguien de ustedes ya le paso lo mismo y podría orientarme
A mi coche le sale ese codigo P0687
Lo lleve con 2 electricos uno me dijo directo que era el rele (644) y lo cambio por uno Generico de los que venden en las refaccionarias y funciono y andubo bien un dia, al día siguiente le hice cambio de aceite y al bajarlo de la rampa se me apago y ya no quiso prender y quedó directo el codigo que por mas que que se le metia escaner no se borraba y llego otro electrico y me dijo que era la caja de fusibles que estaba sucia y los fusibles que estaban corroídos, se limpio todo y me dijo que le regrasara el fusible original (644) y funcionó bien como por 10 dias y ya de ahi me volvio a tirar el codigo de nuevo y ya no volvio a arrancar, lo deje reposar toda la noche y volvio a funcionar como si nada hoy el coche pero que podria ser?

i baught a passat cc 2014 with 1.8tsi engine and it only has 95k km and it loses oil like crazy i'm not sure what is the problem do you guys think that it's a leak or an oil burn problem because it's crazy how much it lost per 200 km it's like 1L per 400km

Hi everyone!

I own a 2019 European VW T-Roc with the factory Composition Media infotainment system and the Active Info Display (digital instrument cluster).

I would like to display the actual Google Maps map from Android Auto directly in the digital instrument cluster, not just turn-by-turn arrows.

I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra with Android Auto.

My infotainment system information is:

- Part number: 3Q0 035 864 C

- Hardware: 853

- Software: 0890

- Navigation database: VO3959821FN 2210 ECE DL2 24/25

I recently came across projects on GitHub that enable navigation maps in the digital cockpit on certain VW and Skoda models, including:

- https://github.com/omonob/MHI2-Carplay-Maps

- https://github.com/chopinwong01/mhi2-android-auto-video-vc

However, I'm not sure whether either project is compatible with my infotainment system. I have also seen videos showing Google Maps in the digital cockpit on other VW models.

My questions:

1. Is it possible to display Google Maps from Android Auto in the Active Info Display on my 2019 T-Roc?

2. Is there a compatible solution for the Composition Media system with my hardware and software versions?

3. Has anyone successfully implemented this on a European T-Roc with the same infotainment system?

4. Would this require coding, firmware modifications, additional hardware, or replacing the head unit?

I don't want to flash incompatible firmware or risk bricking my infotainment system, so I'd appreciate advice from anyone who has actually tested a working solution.

Thanks in advance! I'll attach pictures of my system information if needed.

I bought an audi a3 1.4 with the czca engine, it’s a 2014 car.

Any tips and general info about these engines and what to look out for?

thanks

My wife has a 2019 Tiguan we bought it CPO with an extended warranty that I was told was through VW themselves, we bought it in September of 2024 with 30k miles on it, no accidents and good history.

Within a month or so we already had a few issues brought it to a dealer that I trust and has been very good to me and they did everything at that time under warranty. Around late September of last year I noticed oil consumption so we brought it to the dealer and they found the valve seals lifted so they ordered them and mid-October of '25 they gave us a loaner and got the valve seals done. (Also under warranty)

Fast forward to around August-ish of this year the low oil light kept coming on so I just kept adding oil until I could actually make it to the dealer, I should note the car hasn’t been driven too much due to my wife being injured earlier this year so she’s been out of work. Within the last 7k miles I’ve had to add 6 quarts of oil. I was finally able to get to the dealer around the end of September, and you guessed it valve seals need to be done again but now I’m under the extended warranty, cool no problem it’s through VW so should be easy to get approved to do seals, guides, and the cylinder head, etc., etc.

This is where the frustration comes in, my dealer says they have to wait for a 3rd-party inspector to come out and look at it due to the amount of work it needs (but it should be through VW as I was told) come to find out my “extended warranty” is under the VW name but not actually VW themselves.

So at this point the car has been there for almost a week and I call to double check and they tell me the inspector came and looked at it but now they want the cylinder head off to possibly approve it but I was told if they don't approve it then I'm the one that has to front the $2,000–$3,000 to have the head put on and drive away. I should also note I was told that it's the SAME EXACT PART NUMBERS they are putting on if it were to get a new head and seals, was also told they are 3–6 months out.

Tell me why this makes any fucking sense at all. Pretty much expect it to keep happening. We ended up taking the car back and will be just getting rid of it and going to Toyota for her next vehicle, kinda just done with Volkswagen at this point.

With the amount of seals and heads being done you’d think that VW would figure their shit out and actually fix it, there needs to be a class action because at this point it’s just getting absolutely ridiculous, my '19 GLI needs valve seals as well but that’s only a weekend car for me and it’s paid off so doesn’t matter too much.

I was coding my car on Tuesday and left the ignition on the whole time. After that, I tried charging at uni using 2 different charging points, but both had the same problem.

Normally, a full charge gives me 25–26 miles and takes around 3 hours 30 mins. This time, it said 2 hours 5 mins until fully charged, but only charged to 13 miles and then completely stopped charging. It wouldn’t charge any further.

The red plug symbol also appeared on the dashboard whenever the cable was plugged in.
The next day, I scanned the car with OBDeleven and found a fault saying “Invalid Data Received From Battery Energy Control Module B”.

Today, I left it charging at work from 10:00 to 12:56. It reached 26 miles again, but the red plug symbol was still showing. The light next to the charging port was green.

Could leaving the ignition on while coding have caused this? Is it the 12V battery, the hybrid battery or something else? I don’t want to waste money replacing parts without knowing the cause. Pls someone help😭😭

I am worried that I may have done some major damage to my car. My daughter wasnt feeling well and did not want to go in the store with me. I let her sit in the car and keep the a/c on. When I got back outside, the car had shut off on its own. She said there was no smoke or anything. It just shook a little and cut off (it's a 6sp BTW so she did not mess with anything) when I restarted the car, the coolant light was on. I went to auto zone and the tank looked really low, but when he took the cap off, the coolant level did rise back up so it only needed about a cup full. The car drives fine and doesnt overheat (the temp gage stops at the halfway mark) but yesterday the light came back on (I had driven around 2 hrs and used the a/c) I checked and the coolant was a little ways between max and min lines so it need about half a cup. Today I drove for about 2 hrs but did not use the a/c at all and the light never came on. Have I done major damage to the car??

I used to let her sit in my versa with the air on and it never caused any issues. I realize now that is bad practice and won't do that ever again.

Hey every one I’m about ready to pull thr motor but the new motor I have to replace had a sai delete how do I reroute the lines to make sure there’s no vacuum leaks

My wife and I both have MK7/7.5 Sportwagens and we both have had issues with the key fob running out of battery within 2 to 3 months. The vehicles always give the low key fob battery warning, even when we swap in fresh batteries and then after a couple months we have to start placing the fob on the steering wheel pad to use the ignition. Any idea why this is happening? We have used multiple brands of batteries, are using the correct type, and check they are fully charged. Thank you.

I recently purchased the Atlas CS 21 v6 premium for the wifey and she works less than a mile away. Luckily for us she works just crossing the street from the house but is on a busy highway so she takes the Atlas. I’m talking 0.5 miles from us, she comes home for lunch then she leaves, that will be a total of maybe 2 miles a day 5 days a week. What I’m confused is, the atlas is currently sitting at 16mpg and Monday it had 330 miles left in the tank, today Friday just 4 days after it’s a 260miles left, we’re talking 70 miles difference when she’s just making a commute of 2 miles a day lol, I have a mustang GT and my miles don’t drop like this, is this a known issue or what should I check? No complaints with the atlas so far but the numbers seem crazy to me.

Edit: the atlas also drop 5 miles at time, I’ve never seen that before lol it goes let’s say from 300 to 295 just for crossing the street.

I have a 2002 VW Bug and only two things work on my radio: on/off and volume. I cannot change the station, I cannot change to CD or tape, or even FM/AM. It’s stuck and I don’t know why. Help?

Hi all

Hoping for some help that I haven't been able to find answers for online.

My parents car - a 2017 Touareg r v8 has had the infotainment screen, reversing camera, and cruise control fail. Also some other random bits like the indicator sounds.

They've been waiting for parts from the dealer for 10 months with no end in sight.

Would anyone know what the failed part might be? I'm trying to source one for them so that they can bugger off this dealer.

Any help would be appreciated.
