Hello.
I have been trying to find answers, but sadly none of them have been the answer my car is looking for.
After having had contaminated diesel in my car (water/bottom residue from an old tank), the car suddenly stopped running while driving.
The car has not started again since.
I flushed...
VAG often disable stop/start for a plethora of reasons, anything from a tired battery to a pressure sensor. Basically the brain says 'i'm not working 100% correctly, so disable stop/start.'
What ever the actual code is will give you a better indication of the fault, bit it would be very...
...when "Start/Stop" is active ie at the traffic light (or otherwise detects your main battery as being low). If you don't have or use startstop, I cannot see why you couldn't take the D+ from somewhere else, but for SCR vehicles it is good to have it as described in the schematics.
Those...
...For example:
'Depress Clutch' when starting (i expect i started cranking before i fully pressed the clutch)
'Start manually' when a stop/startstop has occurred, but for some reason it wants a manual crank (for example opened the drivers door)
I also think i had a 'engine starting' not go...
Yes it is. I took my seatbelt off as I was actually pulled up on my drive way and needed to grab my phone but the engine had already stopped and the stopstart symbol was also already showing as not operating. The seatbelt symbol although well spotted is a red herring here.
I would take the symbol as an indication that stop-start is well alive and just messaging being busy with other things and thus can't stop the engine at the moment.
Besides the mentioned battery state etc. the ECU every now then needs a few minutes to run engine's self-diagnostic routines. The...
Hello everyone, not sure if anyone has had this issue but it is worrying me. I have a 2016 T6 102 startline. Everytime I start the engine I get an initial clunk when the engine starts, then the engine runs fine. Then today I was in traffic with start/stop active. I depressed the clutch to move...
HI,
I've just bought a new start / stop battery for my T6 to replace the original (2018) battery. I got my local garage to fit the battery beacuse as far as i know it needs coding for the start / stop to work. The battery is fitted, but here was no BEM code or QR code on the battery. I've tried...
Hi mmi
All is good the garage have replaced the sensor yesterday and the van is happy. Stopstart and regen all working fine. Thanks once again for your help. Paul
Hi @BRABUS . Apologies for not explaining fully what I meant.
Watching F1 on catchup!
Just curious to know if start-stop would still operate if/when you put it into Park?
Might help with diagnosing if fluid change and now softer pedal has contributed towards issue?
I have only just noticed that, in a really long boring 30 MPH village which traffic keeps slowing up and stopping at junctions to turn off, usually keeping moving to some extent, I use ACC I came to a halt behind something and expected a pull away and nothing happened it felt a bit weird...
Hi All,
Have a kombi with 2000 miles on it. When bought it had some brembo big brake upgrade on it. The brakes work fine and and not worn down significantly but when coming to a stop, I can hear a screech/grinding noise just before I stop. Place I bought it from recommended a bedding in...
Hi all. I've noticed a rough/slight rumble to my Idle. It only happens when I've done some short journeys about town, low speed, stop and start & even once the engine is uo to temp. If I've been on a good steady run like my commute I don't get it. It's not the DMF I don't think as engaging the...
Looking for some help, the rear interior lights no longer come on when rear doors are opened on my 2008 T5 they started off by being intermittent some time on sometimes off, so this is where I'm up to, I moved rear light to second row and that to the rear, all works ok on second row but still...
There are 1001 things that disable stopstart, aircon, lights, climate fan speed etc, etc. It’s not a guaranteed thing that the engine will stop when the van stops.
"Dear Sun and Moon,
I would like to make a complaint.
Will you two stop screwing around please.
My next option would be to start legal proceedings as the situation is becoming untenable.
See you in court suckers.
