Nobody has to be recalled. It's not a compulsory recall. This was stated a long time ago. If you are worried about your mpg or performance like I am then don't go for the software fix. They can't force you.

I reckon they would definitely do this ^^^

Usually if you can't get much heat from the heating it means you are rather low on coolant. Have you checked the coolant level. Or as stated above, air lock.

Fr cr 170. Does anyone else accidentally select third gear instead of first sometimes. There isn't much feel to the different gears. Could the selector rods or linkages be worn that much? 56000 miles. Changing gear feels like stirring a bag full of custard and golf balls with a stick of old...

Is it a genuine one? Mine is genuine and fitted perfectly. Tiger seal and then masking tape overnight worked for me.

I've just fitted one in mine. Absolutely love it. I've fitted a glass mounted Dab aerial for now. It's not brilliant to be fair. Need to change the roof aerial for a Dab one but can't figure out how to lower the headlining down.

Slightly concerned that Das Deutsch are making this a compulsory recall. There's no way in taking mine in unless it's compulsory. There's no way that the fix will be something you would want doing.

Just ordered yellow for my white fr with black wheels.

Is that for a dab roof mounted replacement?

If you know your tyres are ok with no punctures then why worry about the warning light. Just press the button for 5 seconds while idling and reset the system. Turn it off with vagcom if you have access to it.

You can't use the original aerial I'm afraid. You can get dab aerials that are hidden behind the dash. Best reception will likely be from the type that stick inside the front window but you'll be removing trim to do it. You could get a replacement Dab shark fin aerial but you'd have to run the...

Sorry. I'm very new to vcds. What's the long code helper? Is that a way of bypassing the bit where you enter the security code? I was following the vagcom guide on here but that method required entering a code. Cheers. I did manage to enable needle sweep so I'm not a complete idiot. Lol

I'm trying to enable alarm chirp using my vcds. I followed the instructions in the vagcom guide but the security code that is suggested there doesn't work for my car. 2010 cr170. Anyone able to point me in the right direction for a security code to get access to this section of vcds?

I've only had my car a month and I was worried it was knackered. Seems it's just a peculiarity of the engine. Glad it's not just me and my imagination sending me mad. Not that bothered about it now I know it's not just me.

I've been looking for a facelift spoiler too for my fr. Not much choice out there. Ended up buying the genuine lcr one from Dave at Sere motors. Cost is £175 though. Painful.

I'm noticing a rather irritating habit of my cr170 mk 2 Leon. After you crest certain hills or bumps in the road there is a slight dip in power. Feels a bit like the engine is braking for a split second or the brakes have been dabbed. It's only on very light throttle not hard acceleration or...

Ordered triple r splitter. Got rid of tar spots on my crisp white paint. Replaced drivers side rear door lock module. Replaced a tyre.

Well I've just swapped both my rear door lock modules. It's about half an hour for each if you know what you are doing. You will need spline drive bits to remove the 2 bolts holding the module to the door. If you prise out the cloth part of the door card you can get the module out without...

Same here. Fr 170 2010. Rear passenger door.

Well I bought a replacement ccm on eBay. Have put it in and it had no effect. Still missing interior lights, electric mirrors, central locking and windows. Any idea what else it could be. Any hidden fuses that are not in the main fuse box?
