Aye, your quite correct, if it is a Sharan then the engine will talk to VAG-COM.

 

I don't know if the Lamba Sensor data is available though, but I can not see why not.

:angry: Front wiper motor-does it work sometimes slow or very slow?

I was told the mechanism was worn out by windscreen repair man.

The wife got at me .you need new mech. ok.!

Unbolted motor assy -easy if you dont mind cut hands.

motor/gear assy comes out as one.

unbolted electronic block. over gear assembly.a big copper coloured disc is the

'wiper park' mechanism -covered in grease from gear mech.

remove all grease off big circular disc -and contacts off electronic block.

Replace with vasaline where the contacts rotate on disc.

refit assy and hey presto wipers work better than ever - 6 months later.

Got my VagCom lead today (thanks Chas) had a good play on the drive, does everything I want it to, even found a fault code pointing in the same direction as I thought it would.

 

But....

 

Is there a list of fault codes or explanations anywhere?

 

My fault code concerning the Lambda sensor looks like it would explain the problems I've been having, but I can't remember what it was because the laptop battery died before I could save it :lol:

 

I'll go for a drive with it logging tomorrow, feels like I'm back in my racing days with data logging :lol:

Thanks Dave

 

Re-read the fault code this morning...... and it doesn't appear on the list!!

 

00537 - Lambda (Oxygen Sensor) Regulation

19 - 10 - Lower Limit - Intermittent

 

 

Not too worried about it, especially as it's an intermittent fault and the LPG closed loop system is doing a good job at the moment, but I do wonder if it was the cause of my fuelling problems a while back, combined with the old ignition system.

 

Probably a dodgy connector on the Lambda probe
