mrs. iichel - VW Mii Sport 2018 - 1.0 MPI 60hp

As far as I'm concerned, the prettiest front of the triplets, the facelifted Mii. It's a replacement for her 2006 Citroen C1 that was falling apart just about everywhere. And happy she was! https://i.imgur.com/IhtXNr7.jpeg The car is a pretty nice trim as well. 1.0 MPI engine with 60bhp Start/stop s...

Re: Auto transmission ECU

You'll be fine. Best practice would be to first disconnect battery minus, then anything else.

Re: iichels VW Passat 2.0 TSI DSG 4-Motion 2017

Little that I knew, my latest BCM doesn't have the little PCB components on it anymore to operate the pump for that. So... after some research, the missing components were quickly transferred from a ...

Re: polo 6c - retrofit Help

mfsw depends on the bcm thats in your car
swapping the cluster probably needs a new cluster but is not impossible

Re: Changed battery, now alternator won't charge...

did you check the fuse? i think it would be good to change the battery type to AGM in your coding. otherwise the car will charge it like an EFB. that's not very ideal.

what you saw was probably 'cold' diagnostics when the car is checking the lights when they are off.

I cut the usb socket holder out of an original mirror base and glued it into the Passat mirror base, it was the...
