Re: 1.9tdi going into limp mode on hills?

Was it the mole-grips that got you.
I feel your pain.
Hole it and a puller then a new plate ??.
Was just a thought as not seen one for 10 years or more and memory not as good as it was.

Re: Headlight bulbs

You do know it will fail the MOT with them fitted.

Re: bluetooth not pairing

Not sure if your system takes more than one phone.
I had this recently but not in a vw and with my iPhone 14.
Solution i found was to pair an older iPhone first then my 14 worked.

Re: Bleeding air out of coolant system

still got a bit of air in there.
You should get hot air out of a diesel as well.
A 3 to 4 mile run without the cap has worked for me in the past but stop half way to top up if needed.
