    Rear Parking Sensors

    You can test the sensors manually if you put your finger on each sensor in turn you will feel a slight pulse/vibration on the good sensors and none on the bad one. Sent from my SM-G988B using Tapatalk

    Temperature gauge low

    Sound like a knackered thermostat, cheap and easy the fix. Mine did the same, as soon as i was on a fast moving road the temp would drop, then go back to normal in town or at a stand still, changed the thermostat and fixed. Usually if a temp sensor goes the temp gauge would randomly just drop...

    Just bought a 2009 2.0 TDI - Advice and tips please

    Not being horrible but good luck getting it through a MOT as DPF'S if fitted from factory have to be there, its an automatic fail if they are removed. And if caught driving one it is a massive fine and car will be taken off of you permanently. The CAGA has a timing belt not a chain, off top of...

    OEM, HAAS or Bosch?

    If you send me your reg i will see what parts are available for it, i work in parts so have access to all the main dealer catalogues. OEM are usually just delphi/bosch/hella in the box anyway so you are really just paying for a box. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk
