    I will answer in order. Yes, starts very quickly I had been driving all day and stopped for gas and had the poor start. Previously it meant my battery needed replacement. Volt meter with new battery 12.65. While starting 12.51 minimal drop. I won’t be able to check at starter until tomorrow...

    2016 GSW TSI No Crank

    I have searched extensively and I am at my wits end, 8 days of no car and cant get appointment for several weeks. Most sites I find are for older cars or TDI or otherwise don't apply. This car seems to need a new battery every 2 years. I got it in 2019 and this is the 3rd battery. Typically...

    VW Polo 5 2015 No Air conditioning

    Make sure the shop pulls vacuum then refills to correct weight. Depending on type of compressor it will take either 460 or 500 grams.

    Electrical issue

    This may not even be close but it seems like either a connector(s) is not seated properly or you pinched a wire bundle somehow. While waiting for Crasher to get back to you, I would get back under car and check everything you unplugged or moved. make sure there is no debris/oil/water in the...

    A/C technical questions

    I’m leaning to replacing the AC pressure sensor and the ambient temp sensor. Ac was out again today when I tried defrost due to rain and snow. It was below 32f but even as temp warmed up, no current to compressor. now AC is chilling Dash temp show 36f/2c. Vcds Mobile shows 8.0-8.2 bar, not...

    A/C technical questions

    Still trying to find out what bar pressure triggers a “low pressure event” I‘m resigned to the fact that when it’s cold outside my compressor will not engage. I’m used to using AC year round, I live in a very high humidity area, so even in winter I Use AC-with the temp higher-to help dry out...

    “If you aren't comfortable with that data in forum let me know or click Report and one of the Admins will pull it.” it WAS offered, I did not ask.. I’m obviously no match for you so I will just stick with asking my car questions.

    Well, I’m in Public Safety. my VIN is usually not visible, there is a placard on dash. I don’t post on social media and certainly not worried about digits in a windshield but why make things easier for people to find me? If you were paying attention, redaction was offered and I agreed. if you...

    That you for this! I’m happy to have it up if it helps someone else but if you could, please cover or remove the VIN. I’m going to check this out and be back with questions. Today is in low 60’s and very humid. AC is working but takes longer than usual to blow cold air, it’s pretty warm for a...

    Dana, how did you get the PR data? I am a step above a complete novice with VCDS, but only a little step. I do better with the computer version than mobile-I’m still trying to figure out and set it up- I’ve run scans, cleared codes and only done a few minor adaptations. I was pretty good with my...

    Excellent, thanks. It’s tough for me to do this stuff at work on iPad and cellphone internet. I will check out what you posted tonight or in the morning. I usually have LOTS of idle time at work, so I will get into it.

    Thanks. That is a little beyond my experience, I’m all for “sperimenting” but I lack the tools.

    2016 GSW TSI S. There are no fault codes in auto hvac, only engine code is no communication with tow system control-I don’t have a tow package. Started having intermittent no power to compressor and “low pressure event” as a compressor shutoff reason. I just had system evacuated, receive/dryer...

    VCDS Mobile questions

    As I said, far from experienced with mobile. I haven’t been able to operate in infrastructure mode, most Wi-Fi I access is out of range of the car. I thought somewhere it would work with iPhone running a hotspot but I could be wrong. Hopefully I will get more adept with vcds and mobile. It has...
