Re: AC doesnt engage when fans on 1

It should work, as the second part number looks to be an updated (for any/many reasons) of the first VW Group part number, how long it will last I don't honestly know as I've never needed to replace one of them ever, never mind with a cheaper pattern part. One thing, maybe hold onto the one you rem...

Re: AC doesnt engage when fans on 1

It is 6Q0 959 263A that is currently listed. Noticed that there is a few items on ebay that say that their part covers several part numbers I've been looking at getting this one: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Heater-Blower-Fan-Resistor-Fits-Audi-A1-A2-VW-Polo-Seat-Ibiza-Skoda/151343916483?ssPageName=S...

Re: AC doesnt engage when fans on 1

Make sure temp dial is set all the way to min. I don't think that is relevant in this case, the OP has confirmed that the fan does not run when speed 1 is selected, which I'd guess is a resistor network failure. so, this would be the blowy-ma-tron thingie resistor Part Number(s) 6Q0959263 OR 6Q0959...

Are you 100% sure that the fan is running on speed "1"?
Hi - checked today, fan doesnt blow on speed 1, but does on all others.

Sorry for asking, but if your fan did not run on speed "1" then maybe the speed controller resistor network is faulty and that would explain this. Are you 100% sure that the fan is running on speed "1"? It definitely feels like there is air coming out when the fans are set to sp...

Re: Exhaust Heat Shield help

Has this happened at the rear of the car, if so some of the retainers will have made a hole in the aluminised heat shielding material and the shield has just dropped down over them. This is caused by the fact that the retainers are steel and the shield is sort of aluminium - dissimilar metals, add ...

Re: Passenger Door Sensor Issue

I done a scan with VCDS - nothing showing up :(

Car was propperly cleaned and that hasnt fixed the issue.

Noticed this seems to be more of an issue when its colder than if its warm outside.

So im out of ideas

Re: Mysterious 'surging' sound

hmm - i have a few posts on here regarding the same issue i think - one of my posts have a video of the noise, be interesting to see if it is the same thing and if you do come to a resolution regarding it.
