    General Corona Virus Discussion

    Well, most vaccines are considered excellently effective if they have a ~70% rate of preventing disease... I think COVID MRNA vaccines got very overstated saying they were 90+% effective, and then of course different strains come out and the vaccines are no longer as effective against those as...

    General Corona Virus Discussion

    I had my 3 in 2021, then got COVID in early 2022 mere weeks after my 3rd and final jab. Had a positive test and everything to confirm. Figure having genuinely had it after being vax'd, my immunity ought to be plenty good for the longer term. I like to think that having had a recent booster at...

    Resolved MK4 cluster swap problem

    Seeing as how you can't buy new clusters anymore, can you post an autoscan with the cluster you're attempting to match installed? And then a second autoscan with the original cluster? That will get us the part numbers and software version numbers of each as well as the current error codes...

    2007 Touareg misses/stalls 45 seconds after cold start

    What does the fuel trim look like in MVB 32? The brake booster mechanical failure is an interesting code. A lot of the Touareg VR6s have an absolute pressure sensor in the brake booster pipe near the booster, they also have an auxiliary electric vacuum pump that can come on as-needed. I see a...

    2007 Passat starts and dies drive's and dies.

    Got a lot going on there. Most glaring of which are the ECU being upset with not seeing things correctly from the fuel pump control module, and even more worryingly, the cam/crank correlation code indicating that the timing of the engine is not right. Either the timing belt not set right, or...

    Ukraine

    Yeah, later on Saturday, that was pretty much my thought. Either Prigo is going to suspiciously fall out of a window, or the leniency he's being shown is because his actions have helped Putin identify officers that aren't truly loyal, and they will be dealt with harshly while Prigo gets a pass...

    Artificial Intelligence

    As you pointed out... that group has had a couple house-cleanings already. Doesn't sound like they're really going the right direction yet...

    Americas Oldest Brewery , right in RT HQ's back yard!

    When I lived in Michigan close to 15 years ago, it was a rare treat to get Yeungling beer. So, every chance I got when I was out of state, I'd at least buy a case to take back with me. Sometimes friends/acquaintances would share when they did the same. But, in retrospect, it was probably more...

    Artificial Intelligence

    I'm sure as time goes on, those who don't make a good attempt to harness AI/machine learning will ultimately get left in the dust. So, for VW's sake, they had better be on the train if they don't want to get runover by those who have embraced it and integrated it successfully, and not just...

    Ukraine

    Interesting. Wagner group is apparently backing down, leader Prighozi struck a deal with Belarussian president to just move there, apparently. Of course Belarus is also just a Russian puppet state. Prighozi was traditionally a Putin lap dog and makes one wonder if this was just some elaborate...

    Anyone with a stock CJAA with no engine codes, show me MVB 89!

    Yes, tuned. I wasn't involved with that part, I was just trying to fix the problem/verify if it even is supposed to be a problem.

    Anyone with a stock CJAA with no engine codes, show me MVB 89!

    This also helped, showing that MVB89/2, bit 1 did indeed read "1" on this one. The two other people on a Facebook group with CJAAs that got me screenshots also showed they had the fuel system monitor installed in MVB89/2 bit #1.

    Anyone with a stock CJAA with no engine codes, show me MVB 89!

    I did get some feedback from a couple CJAA owners, some who's readiness was not set to "ready" but did infact have the "Fuel System" readiness monitor installed. After some back and forth with Malone, we got a file that got the fuel system readiness to re-enable on this ECU and did set...

    Anyone with a stock CJAA with no engine codes, show me MVB 89!

    I did initially. It said 'not installed' for Fuel System. The EOBD binary should be the same information.

    Passat 2.0 TDI oil pressure out of range

    From what I understand about this system, it's a variable displacement vane oil pump. There are two oil pressure switches, a high and a low. The high pressure switch is basically ignored unless the RPMs are above 3000 RPM, which is also when the high pressure stage is supposed to be engaged...

    Anyone with a stock CJAA with no engine codes, show me MVB 89!

    Had someone come by having trouble passing Oregon DEQ (our version of state inspection/smog check) and could not pass readiness. When I saw him yesterday, a couple monitors had not yet set, including catalyst/DPF monitoring, so I did force regen while driving in adaptations and told him to not...

    A bit more excitement than most of us had asked for, for sure. lol Well-handled, Uwe.

    How Do I Remove an Old VIN From My Interface/Account?

    Indeed. And, for those who bother to do, you know, a tiny bit of math: if you think you *might* eventually go unlimited, then obviously the 10 VIN is the better bargain.

    Wiring help (2007 VW Rabbit)

    Not to mention, those of us who have wiring diagrams and are willing to spend a few minutes pouring over them to help could use the information of production date and engine code supplied by the auto scan...

    F-1 here we (VW) come!

    Love it, been waiting for them to finally do this for forever. The rumors have been swirling for years on this. Though dieselgate had a lot to do with their delay in making it happen... Pretty sure they were within a season or two of making a serious entry when dieselgate hit them. Was a real...
