    Turning off Rear Wiper ?

    Hi Does anybody know if the rear wiper can be disengaged through VAG COM from when selecting reverse gear whilst front wipers are on ? Dealer saying they don't think it can but the problem I had was that it engaged whilst cycle rack was on back of the car and because the motor must have...

    Ipod Altea 2007 console connectivity

    Hi I've got a 10 reg XL SE with USB in centre console like yourself. I previously had an ipod shuffle (the old stick type) plugged into the USB and worked fine. My wife got me a brand new ipod for my birthday and there I was like yourself thinking I could just plug it in using the lead to the...

    New Altea XL owner!

    You will be but my point was that for the sake of twenty quid it would have been worth paying because if that pump goes when the warranty is finished then it will cost you plenty !

    It's always been 4 years as long as I can remember unless you did 80k before. Whoever told you 40k was talking bollocks !

    New Altea XL owner!

    Ok let me clear the cambelt issue up as there seems to be numerous opinions. According to my handbook (Altea XL SE 2010) the cambelt change is 4 yrs or 80,000 miles whichever is sooner. Yes 4 yrs is early if you have low miles and you can risk it but if it goes it will be VERY costly. I...

    Altea with conenience pack fog lights on when reversing

    I don't think this feature is exclusive to the convenience pack. My 10 reg Altea XL has it as part of the cornering fog light function. I thought it was illegal to have fogs on when it is not foggy but for some reason it seems like car manufacturers have got round it. It is annoying but...

    Hi I had an 05 Stylance before I got my 10 XL and it definately had rear tinted windows as standard but no rain sensors. They could have been put through and replaced ?

    Clock Question

    You don't have the shitty cornering fogs for a start that you can't switch off. You probably have a decent coming home function, the new models are not as good. Auto dimming mirror on my Stylance yet I get a bog standard mirror on a SE ? Just a few things

    Sorry !!! Believe me that is one of the better features, there are plenty of other things which were better on my old Stylance !!!

    got pulled over AGAIN! Cornering Foglights!

    I'm going to take some convincing. How did people corner before these were invented ? Also did you know they both come on when you engage reverse ? What's all that about, again very annoying when you are reversing looking towards oncoming traffic and you dazzle them !!
