    Can You Trust The Dash Coolant Temperature Gauge?

    Curious about this question I collected some data some time ago, for what it is worth. The title question enters into many a concern related to coolant temperature and this post is my attempt to use VCDS to try and answer this question, at least for my A2, albeit an FSI but this should not...

    FSI ECU VCDS Label File Add-In Download

    Attached something never before available to my knowledge¹, a VCDS label file for the FSI ECU in English. This file can be used with all versions of VCDS, Lite (Registered or Unregistered) or Full. Prior to this point the text that appears with FSI VCDS ECU Measuring and Basic Settings groups...

    Help Fire(s)!

    Good Afternoon, I need some help, maybe not as dramatic as the title suggests but still very concerning. The A2 is a 55 plate FSI (but not an FSI problem) but I don't think that matters but I include it for completeness as I encourage other posters to do always. To start at the beginning. I...

    A Slightly Geekish Look At FSI Coolant Warm-up

    Only read if interested! Currently I am involved in constructing a label file for the FSI ECU, a small portion of which is the coolant groups 130-137 and along with my contributions to Evros's current coolant thread I have have become intrigued with FSI coolant warm-up, how it behaves and what...

    Apologies if I missed this and it is a duplicate, our departed (for now) member from my neighbouring village. Start blushing at 16:30. Andy

    VCDS FSI ECU Measuring Block Label File

    Good Evening, The other day I noticed in posts by our Italian FSI owning member Gorevolution that his VCDS has a Label file (in Italian) for the FSI ECU. As far as I am aware no such file exists in English so...... Is anybody aware of such a Label file in English or indeed any other language...

    Don't Use Evri

    My advice is use another courier. I have used Evri quite a few times and to be fair without problems it is fine, with a problem a nightmare. My nightmare began when Evri lost my alternator on its way back from being refurbished. Evri acknowledged the loss so at least I did not end up with...

    Brake Pad Wear (+ABS) Cable Repair Kit - 8Z0 927 904

    I need help with a question or two. The kit fixes the common yellow brake pad sensor warning on the dash and consists of everything needed... It is not clear in the picture regarding wire connection ends, for clarity the twisted pair of black and brown ABS wires have one sort of terminal...

    VCDS - Redir Fail

    At the top of VCDS output when I scan my engine module there is always the rather disconcerting message 'Redir Fail!', like this Address 01: Engine Labels: Redir Fail! Part No: 036 906 013 F Component: MED7.5.11 5130 Coding: 00051 Shop #: WSC 02138 VCID: 122BEA385E4E8BD14F-5140...

    Marketplace Search

    When hunting for parts, is there a simple way of searching just the Marketplace? It seems to me the standard forum Search ignores the Marketplace making looking for a specific part difficult. Thanks Andy

    1.6 FSI Map Controlled Engine Cooling Thermostat Woes

    Thought I would post if nothing else than to just to build up the body of forum knowledge. 'Nothing Special' I think is showing contempt for the new name I gave my A2 last week after 8 years of ownership. Symptoms 1. For the last nine months from cold the dash temperature seems to have been...

    Boot/Footwell Tool Kit Pictures Wanted

    A recurring basic question from new members is 'What's Missing In My Tool Kit?'. I think it would be a good idea to have stock pictures that can be collated eventually into a new entry in 'How To'. I know there are a few variants depending on model, year, Bose etc. so please help out by...

    Who has the youngest A2?

    Not as much charisma as the 'Who has the oldest A2?" thread but there has to be something special about the last A2. I do not expect to "win" but to set the ball rolling .... I have a 55 plate FSI, first registered 1st September 2005. Andy

    Some extracts from posts in last month that brought a smile to my face. If you recognise your own words please do not be offended, no offence is intended, after awl:oops: I am probably just as bad as anybody else. Sometimes it is unintended meaning..... My favourite this month is the member...
