Many thanks Chrispb123456 fuse is good checked the other day. looks like Ill be getting under the car then :wacko:

Hi All the problem I have is the aux heater has been working over the past few weeks even in the warm weather but then would not shut off unless I switched the engine off (faulty sensor?) now the heater wont come on at all and I cant get vag-com to connect to the heater module, all other modules are fine just wondering what to check for? The glowplug is only just over a year old. Swifty.

Got the blades in the post yesterday morning and hooray it rained wipers worked a treat and totally silent Cheers again bigdave

Many thanks bigdave those are a better deal than the ones I originally found Ill give them a go Swifty.

Hi All I have 2000 mk2 gal, need some new wiper blades, the question I have is with all the trouble that can happen with wipers seizing can I put the flat aero type blades or should I stick to the original type. I only ask as the aero type seem to have many more points of contact with the screen and wondered if it would be to much for the motors with the extra drag. Swifty.

Hi George Fitted the maf today got a bosch unit from eurocar parts

Ooops didnt see the reply on the caravan forum its the maf then. Many thanks again guys. Perhaps now I might get a break in the van.

Ok just took the Gal out on a run, half way through I unplugged the maf,the difference was amazing it drove like a bullet. Am I to take it that the maf is knackered. The maf sensor is well over four years old thats how long Ive owned her so who knows when or ever if its been changed or the original. Thanks again Swifty.

Many thanks for the replies, do i take it then that the 150ps model will be far better for towing? Swifty

Hi all, does anyone know what the torque ratings for the 150 ps galaxy ive looked on a few sites and they all say its the same as the 115 model. Swifty.

Many thanks Daddyfixit thats exactly what ive been offered over the phone today. Thanks again swifty.

Hi all im after a bit of advise on what to do about my VW caddy its on a 56 plate and only done 34000 miles, the gearbox has given up and although ive got a feeling its out of warranty I feel at that low mileage I should be able to get it replaced by VW. Any ideas on how I would go about this? Ive never had anything happen like this before. Thanks Swifty

Hi Steve Mine also only works with key not the fob. Just checked the manual it only explains the global closure with the keys only. Swifty.

Sounds to me like chattering of the waste gate on the turbo. Mine does it and the rs turbo I had years ago did the same thing. Swifty

I too got Quantum Platinum 5L from VW at edgeware for

I tried the above suggestions and the only way I could stop it coming on was to make sure its on econ and on lo setting. Swifty

Right you lot I want to know who went out to my car last night and put the locking nut on the tie rod end cos defo wasnt there yesterday. I feel like a right cock. New pair of glasses for me. Many thanks to all who replied while I was having a blonde moment. Swifty

Thanks Richard Gal I never thought of that. Thats why Im so confused, not that it takes much ;)

Thanks Mirez now all ive got to do is find the bloody thing im damned if i can see it.

Hi all need to change tie rod ends. Is there a locking nut on the tie rod or do you just hold the tie rod with some sort of gripping tool and then just twist off the tie rod end? sorry if this is a stupid question but everywhere else ive looked they all seem to the locking nut and from what i can see the gal hasnt. Swiftie..

I agree with gregers thats a good idea, could still throw in the wine-gums. Cheers Swiftie

I pull just over 1500kg no probs with a 115 gal. I know other tow more. If you feel comfortable towing over the 85% limit its only recommended if your experienced. Swiftie

Thanks Gregers. Does anyone know how to do it? Swiftie

Hi all,Can the trip computer bet set to show "miles left" with vag com. Mk2 tdi 115 ghia Swiftie
