Hello all,
Having fed up with expensive black box diagnosis by multiple garages who fixed a few problems with no real progress (as the engine light keeps coming back), I finally found the VCDS via social media while searching frantically for a solution...what can I say...last few days of owning the Hex-V2 kit is an entire new world. I now know exactly what faults are bugging my beloved car (car details on the subject line).
I did some research on mapping the faults on my car with previous posts and here's the fault summary. I would be grateful if any of you can suggest what other tests that I could do to drill down further to fix these issues.
My questions / observations in last few days are marked with ****

**** Last occurred on 23/11/2023. I saw from from forums this could be fuel tank flap actuator fault.
**** I see the fault stopped occurring after 11/2023. Could this be due to us not closing the fuel flap correctly after a specific re-fuel and then fixing it unintentionally maybe after a month or so?
**** Probably due to this, I see reset counter is going down continuously and as I understood once it reaches zero, the fault would get erased by itself?

***** old error regarding key battery - replaced and good now since Sep 2022. My question is why did garages leave the fault without erasing it?
***** Any idea why reset counter is not coming down? And looking at Sep 2022 date, it seems none of the faults have been cleared by garages since 2022, even though they claimed they fixed them?
***** I was a novice all these days, only now understanding these, hence so many questions. I hope it's okay.
