I replaced my battery last year as I was getting fed up of my alarm randomly going off. I got my battery checked prior to changing it and everything pointed towards the battery being fine. However with the battery being the original battery and the car being 10+ years old I took the punt and...
Car is B8 Avant
I've recently noticed that the lights in my boot only seem to come on when the rear hatch is halfway down. it doesn't seem to come on when the hatch is fully open.
I have also noticed that my rear widow demister doesn't work, the switch on the dash works and the light stays...
Going to clean it up later and run it again, thankfully I have acess to an inspection pit, so I can get underneath. When I looked last night the dripping was at the rear of the sump just above the oil filter housing. Hopefully when I get a camera down there later it might reveal something...
Car is a 2.0 Tdi CAGA Engine code
SInce last weekend I have had a really bad oil leak, the oil seems coming from the bottom end of the engine, the top end is bone dry. There doesn't seem to be any leaking from the sump.
The issue occurs once the car is up to temperature and the oil pressure...
Basically when it was sucked out there may have been a little bit of oil left in the sump as opposed to draining it out from the sump plug therefore ensuing all the oil has been drained.
My experience of this was when I did an oil change a while ago I used a suction device to take all the oil out, when I put fresh oil back in I got this notification. So on my latest oil change (a couple months ago) I decided to drain the oil from underneath and then fill up as normal. Thankfully...
Believe it or not its the original battery! I have a dashcam, but it powers off after about 60 seconds of the ignition being switched off. When I get and dry day. I intend to have a look at the abs sensor for a quick check.
I've spent the last few weeks sorting out a few problems with the B8, but there is one that seem to be eluding me. I have had the Energy Management Active fault present for a while, the full description as below:
1 Fault Found:
03041 - Energy Management Active

Looking at all the work you have had done, I would check for any shards in the feul punp which is a quick job. But from what I have seen above I would strongly suggest changing your fuel pressure regulator. I have just has a look on youtube for the orignal video that I found helpful, but I have...
Car has been sounding like an aeroplane for the last few weeks, so I decided to change the d/s wheel bearing today and to no avail the problem has not been sorted. This is the second time i've change the d/s bearing (the passenger side bearing was changed last year. Using the process of...
I have had the same problem in the past and found that the wire for the brake pad wear indicator was damaged. I ended up splcing the wires together and the light then went out. TBH the wire for the brake pad wear indicator is really flimsy.
For me it was the problem, I ended up purchasing a genuine part from TPS the part number was 057 130 764H. How do you find it on first start ie in the mornings?
