2012 VW Touareg - Blue Motion - 3.0L V6 Diesel - RHD - Retrofit tow bar (Fuses checked )
Hi All, We purchased a used Touareg last year and at the time of purchase the fob range was poor, however we thought it just needed new fob batteries. We got it home and swapped the batteries for Duracell ones (tested at 3.2v). Unfortunately the fob range is still very poor. Also at time of purchase the drivers side speaker wasn't working (this was due to two broken wires at the door shut connector) and it was obvious the car had sustained damage around the front drivers side wing and had been repaired (unsure it thats relevant to later points)
So I've scanned the car, ignore the low fob batt code as thats now been replaced and door warning light code as the scan was done with the driver side rear door card off.
The two codes that concern me are 00193 and 02981. Would the 00193 cause poor fob range? not too fussed with KESSEY, at the moment is works on all handles intermittently barr the broken one, but will replace the handle if theres a chance it will sort the fob range issue. The fob range is about 1m max (best near the drivers door) and improves slightly with new fob batteries. If i open the drivers side door and press the fob buttons in line of sight the range increases to about 5-6 meters so am guessing there could well be an issue with the J393 module antenna? would that tie in with the 02981 code? I understand the earlier Touaregs have issues with the central locking antenna but can't see much relating to the T3's. I tested the car battery with VCDS a few months ago and IIRC it was around 75%. Also if its relevant the radio reception seems ok. Keyless start range is also poor. The keys need to be either on your lap, sitting in the middle of the centre console on onto of the dash to start via the button.
Would it be possible to make up a home made antenna to try? or use VCDS to test the antenna? Im guessing the OE antenna is integral to a larger harness as i can't find one listed on ETKA.
Many thanks
Peter
