Hello, I have a question for you….. My Golf 6 (10 years old) still has the first battery (60Ah) I suspect that the battery will break slowly, which may be after 10 years. 2 weeks ago the rest voltage of the battery was 12.2V. After that it was charged until the charger “ready” indicated. Voltage after charging: 12.4V Today the rest voltage of the battery is only 12.2V. Is this normal? Is the battery broken or just before? Thank you for E Grus PS: I use my car only 3x per week for a total of 120km (per week)

Can the Autohold function “Surface belt attached” be programmed?
Good morning, I now also have a Tiguan 1 with manual transmission. Before someone comes with the “safety club” – no, I basically ride with safety belt! The Autohold function works under 3 conditions:Requirements for holding the vehicle with Auto Hold driver door is closed. Safety belt of the driver is attached. Engine is started. But since I use the Tiguan often in the private forest for trailer pulling with wood and therefore I often before charging 10m, stop, Charging, again 10m, recharge, etc. I would like to know if someone has already programmed the item “Safety belt of the driver is laid out”. It would be an immense relief, not constantly parkprems on, off, off, off. Simply more comfortable. Does this or is this a “conditio sine qua non”? Would that go with VCDS? The friendly says “nee” – but he also said that you can’t program the safety heaven. Knowing before – and please, no senior teachers uwes with “Safety belt is vital” – I always use it on public roads!

Brake fluid change interval with little vehicle?
Hello, brake fluid always pulls water. But I could imagine that it does not pull so much with a vehicle which is driven little. After all, it is not so much moved and is subject to less temperature fluctuations. Then you would have to be able to extend the change interval with a seasonal vehicle which is moved only less than 1000km/year. Or if I am wrong with my guess and brake fluid always pulls the same amount of water – no matter if it is only i m System “stands around” or is constantly moving and hot-cold is subject to fluctuations?

What do you say about these compression values???
Hello, would like to hear your opinions on the following compression values. I also had a compression measurement carried out on my car, a VW Polo, built in 2010 as part of the customer service. Simply because I was interested in it. everything was done by a free workshop. So and now a few more data: VW Polo, built in 2010, 1.4 l suction gasoline engine, 86 hp. Engine identification letter CGGB mileage 34739 Compression values: cylinder 1: 12.5 bar cylinder 2: 13.5 bar cylinder 3 : 12,5 bar cylinder 4: 13,5 bar The master thought everything was still fine. But would still like to know your opinion about it. Thanks for your answers and opinions.

Turn off Keyless Go key.
Since it is easy for thieves to intercept the signal, you should secure the key. The following project is in my mind: Install an additional switch in the Keyless Go key that shuts down the key. So you don’t need to secure it otherwise and no one can read the signals. Has anyone done this or has any suggestions?

Assistance systems
Many vehicles are equipped with electronic assistance systems today.My question is these cars continue to drive even if an assistance system is running or do these cars stop because the system does not trust the driver to drive safely even without an assistance system (distance warning)?Is a steering wheel brake installed with fully autonomous cars so that you can also drive them manually or are the fully autonomously built?

Should a new battery be charged before installation?
Hello, I have ordered a Varta Blue Dynamic from an online battery dealer. So a conventional wet battery. At the moment I drive almost only short distance, under 30 km. I know when buying is here “filled and charged” … but a battery was also stored. Should I charge the battery before installing it? Outside the door, later on at the car, I usually cannot charge. How high should the battery be before installing it?

Battery replacement for start/stop
Hello, a question to the experts: the start/stop batteries, for example, for my Golf 7 are quite expensive compared to the usual DIY batteries. What happens if you save the extra charge and simply use a normal battery, which is also not particularly learned? I use start/stop anyway almost never. Is this then broken after a short time due to other charging cycles or is the loss of life so low that the additional price for one of these new expensive batteries Thank you.

When the mass is off…
Day together, my father called me yesterday, his scooter is broken. As it looks, he has too often jammed the battery from time to time and now the cable shoe for the minus pole is off, however something happens. Now the thing stands on the front door, 2km away from a workshop. I now think about what is best done. a) a cable from the minus pole to the frame. What cross section would you need? b) hold mass cables to the battery, start, ground cables to the side p) I used to drive tens of kilometers without a mass cable, because it broke down (in the car) during the ride. When it was turned off, it was called for total blackout, but would that be harmful for alternator & co.?
