Hello together, I had my error memory read out today because sporadically the exhaust lamp lights up. Within a week this was now about 2 times the case, whereby it was gone again after a day. Now the error message: P1018 suction tube / load motion flap 2 lower stop not reached What does this mean? The workshop where I always had my cars made could only read the error memory. This error can apparently only fix VW. I made today already an appointment for Friday but I would like to know what comes to me. The friendly always likes to quickly build any spare parts even if this might not be necessary Greetings Stefan

Hello, I don’t like the whole pre-plan and circuit diagrams that show that the solar aeration circuit is a closed circuit when ignited. There are already a few solutions to deactivate the solar aeration REALLY, but they are all not worthy of Phaeton. (Nothing against cable ties in general 😉 ) My idea is this: In the AC menu, take off the item “solar aeration” via Can Bus, send this signal via an Arduino with Canbus Shield, which then controls a bistable relay in the current circuit solar cells – fan motor. Bistable because it is supposed to keep off the ignition and thus voltage off the relay, a normal relay always needs a control current to stay switched and at rest current we already have enough in the car. Now, however, someone has to help me with the canbus. Where can I take off the comfort can? On the OBD plug obviously not? And what ID does the point “solar aeration” have to remain and on the calm current? And is the menu point even finished in the car?

Hello friends of the thick VW. In advance: I googled and searched here in the forum, searched many pages, printed many lists and spent many hours trying and learning. Nevertheless, questions about the VCDS remain with my car. I have the AutoDia K509 of CarPort and the version 2.2.18 of the software with the Pro modules CAN and KKL and think that I can deal with it in principle. However, for example for closing the tailgate by FB or switch in the driver door I always find only the instruction, which refers to the control unit 6D tailgate. However, this control unit does not have my car and in the comfort module, in which I would suspect these functions, there is no indication. So there has to be another variant, which I find nowhere else. Furthermore, for example the footroom lighting: should it be STG 09 board network, byte 20. In my control unit (which by the way is called “electric central electric) there is only 15 byte as well as there are the mentioned channels for the brightness do not exist. In the case of the frequency of the 10 Ding system should not be used for me.

Hello, from next week I am also proud owner of a 2013 V6 FSI long. I noticed today that he doesn’t have a complete spare wheel but only the breakdown set on board. This is in a powerful foam thing together with a trailer coupling that fills the trough virtually completely. Is there a reason not to rebuild it and let the space benefit the trunk? That’s always quite a lot of volume which I could use for longer tours with the family well. Maybe there’s already a solution for that.

Hello. Maybe someone can help me with the following errors in the diagnosis and possibly give tips. (see pictures) The date is not correct with the errors, it is mostly about errors that occurred in 2018. I don’t know why the year is given here with 2002. The only error that occurred after the deletion and test drive is in the light range regulation. All the others have not occurred any more. To my driving profile: I drove almost exclusively short distance in the last half year, so I urgently need to get on the track to get into a DPF regeneration. I have read somewhere that is only performed when the error memory is empty. Is this true and disturbs the light range error here? Thank you and greeting Klaus

Hello everyone. After it has become cold now and my heater has once again a flame break or flame failure, I suspect once again my compfort battery. Note: As written in other threads, the VW workshop has changed half the heater to Kulanz last winter. After probably the previous owner has already got the complete heater new before. If it is warmer or the engine runs, the heater works without any problems and runs longer. Now to my problem: Last after 400 km of highway and plenty of light 5 minutes of residual heat usage only 11.8 volts and shutting off the residual heat due to undervoltage (display in the display). Tonight with CETEK charger charged and this morning only 12.1 volts (the voltage over the OBD interface with the OBDeleven app read out) or 12.6 volts(directly to the poles). Charging voltage 14.1 volts when the engine runs. The battery is a Varta, AH I can’t recognize. On the Minuspol stands 30 13. If the production week can’t be the part of the 2013 when the battery is still weak. If the middle of the battery is still has a few years.

Moin Friends I’m torn back and forth about the decision to buy a Phaeton. No matter who I talk to in my personal environment with the subject, always the same sentences, Oh that’s vulnerable, but you pay yourself stupid and stupid. I wouldn’t touch that, just makes problems ect… Of course all the answers from mneches who have never seen a Phaeton from inside. My question now, is the Phaeton actually so vulnerable? Or are those horror stories? Then another question about warranty, What does the VW used car guarantee include? What is covered with it? Gruss from Hamburg Arne

Moin Moin from Hamburg, Mein Opel Vectra C is slowly giving up his mind, and a new family coach has to come. To choose from a VW Phaeton and a VW Touareq, both similar in price mileage ect.. From the engine it should be the 3.0 TDI, the 239PS will be sufficient. The Faru of the house prefers a SUV, I tend to Phaeton. Below standing offers are available, What do you mean? Are the offers worth it?https://home.mobile.de/AUTOHAUS-MIRCO-MEYER#des_215650068http://suche.mobile.de/…/details.html?…

Hello everyone, after years of waiting, it’s so far that I got the best car in the world and that’s even the first car of my own. Now I need insurance, the part to register and with the new Kenzeichen (600km) and then I was praying for your advice. 1. The car comes from Spain(has no German papers), I have to pay attention to the registration here? 2. For the insurance you ask for the new price of the car, can I get this from the Fz ID number, e.g. the VW? In the appendix the HU and to that I had a couple of questions: – Can I remove the 2 things after registration and collection (no more that is 600km) or can I not drive the car or(shrek) not register the things at all? – What exactly should “motor oil-humid” mean and correspond to how to eliminate them? I was happy about a quick feedback so that I(hopefully) can pick up the car at home after Saturday: I live in Munich.

Hello to all Motortalkers Have a problem with my Phaeton v10 5.0 tdi So, when I start the car the engine is running restless and loud like 1.9tdi. When gas is giving Pfeifft Turbo(But like Tudbo when no smoke comes from the exhaust? At D,R,N Ruckelt very strong which is also funny because the car bought 1 month ago and the previous owner gave me a bill of friendly that the transmission would be overhauled together (converter, O-rings, oil etc). When I switch to D the car rolls very slowly. When I give full gas it goes up to 2000 turns Totally slowly afterwards it also does not accelerate like a v10 with 313ps, maybe like a car with 80-100ps. While that gear switches not normally Rückert Extreme. If I stay longer time while acceleratoring on gas (Turbo) will probably switch off because then there is no more power. And if it is downhill it remains standing or at maximum 10kmh it’s easy to read.(I have noticed this before).
