I bought a new “off-road EGR” which also came with some additional horses and an inverted startstop (although that needs doing an other day because I forgot to ask!)
Maybe I didnt explain very well.
Basically the Stop-start gizmo thingy presses the stopstart button for you every time you switch the ignition on- turning stopstart off.
The Ghost will see this as you pressing the stopstart button. SO interfering with the code sequence you press to allow the...
Hi
I have a T6 2017. I installed a new Yuasa 800Ah stop-start battery in Nov 25 and the stop-start is intermittent (as was the battery I replaced). Had battery tested today while in for MOT, and the battery health is just 56%. Mechanic says battery is defective. Question is, is that because I...
Hi all, hoping someone might be able to help, on our way home on Wednesday, the engine warning light came on and the glow plug light started flashing, the dash is saying stopstart fault, it’s gone into limp mode I’ve got a code reader but it’s not really telling me anything or clearing the...
Hi,
After a few days of testing, no issues!
The modification is fine!
I was worried about the ABS—didn't this modification affect it? Normally not, because when I press the button, the dashboard indicator shows no problems!
As for the start-stop system, I disabled it on purpose (by wiring an...
Disabling Stopstart with software changes is done by "tricking" the system into thinking that all criteria are not met for a stop/start. eg battery too low, so changing that threshold.
In my opinion it is better to just install the adaptor piece ( from Aliexpress etc) that connects in line...
have you definitely got all the cables connected? IIRC, there’s a separate wire (brown I think) that sits alone on the terminal - it only runs start/stop function….i can’t see it in the pics?
Had a new stereo-fitted Pioneer SPHDA160DAB) it's driving me insane every time I stop at lights (only when stop-start is active the stereo restart) odd times it doesnt go off but most of the time it does It's very frustrating especially if using sat nav. I am not sure how this has been fitted I...
Also do not forget that it is still winter. Start/ stop will not work when it's too cold (obviously) or even when too hot (for the A/C).
Or when the tide/moon phase is not correct, i suspect.
There is a function to programme the battery in VCDS, but in all the cars I have owned with stopstart I have never noticed any difference after programming. I replaced the one on my T6 a few weeks ago and I did input the manufacturer and capacity.
My stopstart also appears permanently disabled.
Hello
Last week I pulled away on a hill in wet weather which caused the van to wheel spin.
A couple of warning lights appeared on the dash as shown and have not gone away since.
I have a cheap OBD2 which doesn’t identify any errors, but think it’s just because it’s cheap.
On the dashboard...
Glow plug delay...
Was the new battery coded in?
Does the stop/start work correctly?
Does the temp sensor work correctly?
Is there anything wired to the starter battery NEG terminal?
