Re: VCDS Scan results

At least it's showing the correct code now.

I'm waiting for delivery on the Can-Gateway, wouldn't the coding be different to my present gateway as the newer device is a different version and would most likely have more options?

The Eonon GA5153F is a nice device, I didn't pay for the Sygnic Navigation software though.

Re: VCDS Scan results

@Mindriot, I did that this morning, hopefully I did accidentally lean on my key and this would not happen again. The link you provided was to a seller in China, delivery is between 2 - 4 weeks. :shock: :shock: I believe your first post was when you first did an Autoscan after getting VCDS? If so, th...

Re: Updating sat nav on GT

In Linux you can hide files by adding '.' eg .folder .ukpassats.txt

If the files are hidden rename the files and delete the . from the beginning of the filename

Some files are rared/zipped in Linux, if not then try as mentioned in the above post.

Sounds like you really liked the car, knock him down even more to compensate for some of the cost off repair.

Re: EE Fiber Broadband

Plusnet & BeThere are the best I have ever used. Very reliable lines, support & CS.

Other companies like Vodafone, EE, BT, Sky etc etc are total junk. I'm currently stuck with Sky because of the Mrs but will be switching to Plusnet soon.

Re: VCDS Scan results

I remember you buy the same tape of the same board and offer. I originally thought the problem was somehow related to the radio because the wiring of the tape was a pain to get in, not much room in the back. While I have changed the alarm to sound once I'm fearing the battery will be dead this morni...

Re: VCDS Scan results

I'm thinking of replacing the alarm with another. The car struggled to start again today after 2 attempts.

Re: VCDS Scan results

The car struggled to start again today but did eventually start, didn't need a jump start today. I have waved my hand inside the car again and popped my head into the car, the alarm went off as expected.

Driving down to London a little later, hopefully I would not have an issue.

Re: VCDS Scan results

I don't know what tests to do, lol. There is a test button which I clicked and nothing happened. So I saved and went back.

However my alarm did go off again and will check shortly if my car starts.

Re: VCDS Scan results

I went into Modules Central Conv and selected Adaptation (10). Drop down menu and selected Alarm Horn Adjustment, set a new value to 1 and the Channel changed to 13.

I assume my alarm will only sound once and not drain my battery throughout the night?

If so, don't I still have a problem somewhere?

I don't actually see any sensors in my car but I definitely do have an alarm. Earlier I waved my hand inside the car with the window open and nothing happened.

Don't really know why I am excited, lol. Anyway, I ran a scan and results are below. Can you guy help explain the faults to me and p...

Re: Alarm keeps going off & car showing I need a service

I have gone with Marshall's Industries instead of Gendon. They offered a carry case and Saturday delivery for £5 more than Gendon. Hopefully will run a scan and something will pop up.

Re: Alaram keeps going off & car showing I need a service

Is it a possibility the head unit may have affected the alarm? I was told it shouldn't make a difference.

Re: Alaram keeps going off & car showing I need a service

I really do need VCDS. Can you possibly link me to the cable I will need? Think I may get my own cable and program now, i'm finding this car frustrating without it.
