iichels Polo 6R 1.6TDI DSG --> OEM++ R-Line conversion

[iichel]

Yes, the light diagnostics are disabled.

[ciclo]

iichel do you have turned of the canbus error check of both rear fog and reverse with that LED?

The reason for your question is clear for a long time ...

[federicodrdpro]

ciclo, I don't understand what you mean. I would install Polo 6C rear lights and I would install double reverse light like iichel. But I would keep on the can bus light diagnostic.
I read on your thread that you don't have VCDS errors with LED bulbs: viewtopic.php?f=56&t=58703&p=487560&hil ... se#p487560
Which LED bulb I need to install to keep on the Can bus light diagnostic?

[iichel]

6C dash is here!



Dimmer 3C0941334A + connector 8L0971883 fits perfectly



Wiring up the dimmer... Polo 6R dimmer:



Wiring adaptation to make 3C0 dimmer work with PQ25:
Connect T8/3 GND to T8/7GND
Connect T8/5 58d dimmer output to T8/8 58d illumination of button

Why 6C Dash? Are there any differences?

[iichel]

It allows the new MQB rotary light switch and it's a bit more decent compared to my old dash. It's a bit scratched and scuffed.

The new one looks nice and fresh and allowed me to tidy up the wirings underneath. Overall it's good, but at some places the crimping wasn't perfect or the tape came undone.
And I've tied together all the loose looms, that grew in number quite significantly in the four years I owned the car.

The new dash wasn't very expensive either and maybe I'll manage to sell some of the undamaged parts to play even. I heard the glossy black surrounding of the light switch is quite rare.

Here is another way to get the glossy black surrounding of the light switch: https://www.drive2.ru/l/458574964937720895/
In order not to damage it, first remove the entire dashboard. Sometimes they appear together with the switch on ebay.de.
And of course we can paint it like Daria and Vitalii (in link above).

[iichel]

Good thing I just swapped my dash then

[gtsportms]

Did u manage to swap the dash alone? Very Difficult?

[iichel]

Yes easily a one-man job. Just be careful and systematic. Took about an hour to take out and another hour to fit it back in.

Since I'm doing three posts in a row without editing, it better be good.

Mod: Extra air filter below parafane

My lovely Rosa is one of the people with COPD worldwide and especially in summer, the pollen in the air makes her suffer while breathing.
So last year, I mounted an extra airfilter. The idea comes from drive2.ru and aliexpress.
I bought one filter housing and three filters.: https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/1-pcs-Ne ... 79061.html

She said she had some benefit of it last spring.

Installation is rather simple, I'll let the pictures do the talking.

Tools needed: 13mm wrench, flat screw driver.
Be careful when you place and remove the parafane to avoid damage to the lips where it clicks in.

I saw you use green filter.
Do you know what is difference between green and white color?
1. Green: https://pl.aliexpress.com/item/1-pcs-Ne ... eab8&tpp=1
2. White: https://pl.aliexpress.com/item/2-pcs-Ne ... 01010.html#
3. White: https://pl.aliexpress.com/item/1-pcs-Ne ... eab8&tpp=1
I remember how a few years ago, on the housing estate in which I live, blocks of flats were insulated with styrofoam. At that time I had in the car a lot of small white styrofoam balls


PS. @iichel, did you see that: https://pl.aliexpress.com/item/PKE-Smar ... 15173.html ? No OEM Keyless Go

[iichel]

haha yes I've seen the keyless go system. Not OEM is a no go for me haha
To be honest, I don't know the difference between the green and the white. Back when I did the mod, I only saw the green ones. The white one looks a bit denser, but it's difficult to see.
In medicine, we prefer green because it doesn't look so bad when you get blood on it...

[iichel]

After fitting the Polo 6C dash, I've also completed the rest of the mod.
Dimmer 1C0 (3C0 wasn't working well enough)
Light switch modified. I took a 5G0 light switch and took out the PCB. I replaced the PCB with one from a Golf 6 and now all is well.

[ciclo]

Looks like good.

With 5G0 you can use the fog lights in Auto position, is it also possible with your modified light switch?
Have you installed a new engine? ...
Why is the key not found?

[iichel]

good one, didn't try that before. no the fog lights will not work in the auto position. that's a bummer.

what do you mean with different engine?

the key is the kessy key not in range of the antenna.
I checked the lights before, it was probably complaining because i left the car with the keys in my pocket.
The car usually starts complaining when you're already back in the car...
