  1. Anyone know how to reset the 02 Lambada sensor 1 on the turbo? Or does it do it automatically. I recently installed & cant find anything in obd11 for a reset.
  2. I am having difficulty getting this crankshaft sensor connector off, is in a very awkward place for big hands to reach. I tried lifting the grey clip up, dont want to force it.
  3. Update on this for anyone interested I recommend https://mtrim.co.uk/ Done a great job on both sides of the seat, as the other side was starting to tear. With matching leather & a lot cheaper than the other quotes I got.
  4. Changed mine today from Tarox to Brembo.
  5. I dont ever launch it & tyres all seem to wear at same time. Ive never noticed it losing traction, but need to check thanks.
  6. 2016, 74k mate. Been like this for several years, shouldn't be difficult to fix.
  7. I serviced my Haldex again today, ive done it twice now, 30k intervals & both times the filter is clean. Yet I see all these others that look terrible. Wonder if my pump is working right, I cycled with Obd11 & can here it working. Must be lucky.
  8. I am after same firmware update as Bozdee,MHI2_ER_VWG13_K4525 MU: 1367 Cant seem to find on MIBsolutions. Is very confusing. I am just after possibly a bluetooth update, which I doubt will have, but thought would be worth a try. 9.2 discovery bluetooth takes a while to show & is bugging me.
  9. I recently booked a water pump change with VW & they quoted me £615 on the phone & when I went in they said that was only for the pump & not thermostat & with labour would be£1400. I have been quoted £650 from other mechanics local, but ended up doing the job myself. Youde think when they quoted me, they would have known the pump & thermostat were two different items, but come together. I couldnt believe it, called them a bunch of scammers & left. Maybe something im missing? 1st time water pump on my R since new, 8 years ago. Think I had a good run, hearing the nightmare stories from others.
  10. Thought ide post this for a chuckle, only difference between these two, im pretty sure is the paint work is more shiny on the R-line to the R? 2 different part numbers. How VW blatantly rob you.
  11. Im not sure, he said one of them lasted upto 2 years.
  12. Get what you pay for, but that is not the whole car wet sanded only the front & the rest machined. Cheers.
  13. Yes I am a fool, as I have had him remove a few marks & didnt push the orange peel. Get what you pay for I guess & went for the cheapest option. Yes he quoted wet sanded. He wants £600 for the whole car detailed & corrected with ceramic, but I think he sees me coming.
  14. I recently had my front bumper & bonnet resprayed & has a fair bit of orange peel. So was looking into paint correction & then PPF. Guy quoted me £300 to correct just the front. I would do myself but scared of leaving scratch marks as I have done previously & it ending up a nightmare.
