Re: Fog light wires thickness and power rating

The speed in these sections is 40-60kmph, so I was under the impression it is reasonable. Of course on regular 4+ lane highways it is not useful. Thanks for the pointers.

Re: Manual to DSG - 1.6 TDI

Hi Amer, Thanks for your reply. Can You share abs coding for the unit. Also the vehicle has only one Exhaust gas temperature sensor. What to do to disable the egt sensor errors.? remove dtc Maybe you forgot to plug it in? you have one sensor on the turbo housing, and another on top of dpf filter.

Re: Anyone Replaced the Gear Stick Gaiter on Polo 6c

The ring that holds the gaiter on mine knob didnt crack. And i think you will get a new on with a new shift knob.
In worse case you can use a zip tie, like on jdm cars...
