I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. It could be the drivers for module.

I think they're known to break. Might be worth checking ebay for a replacement or get yours repaired

Thank you so much. Hoping to get it back on the road by it's not going to be cheap. Glad you got sorted with your gearbox 🙂

I'd be getting it back to the garage who did the coding of the module

If get the wiring checked for breaks, in failing that is also recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. Worse case scenario the CCM is on the way out

You could upgrade to Bose but you'd be better off just upgrading the head unit for a touch screen and aftermarket speakers. However I'm unsure whether it needs coding

They're very rare, despite the colour being really nice

The rarest part of the car is the colour. Besides that the 1.9tdi is still a common engine, but the 8l is now becoming rare. How many left is very inaccurate

Have you done a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up with CCM? Also have the carpets got wet at all? As a flooded CCM would often be the reason for it not to work.

Glad you got sorted in the end 🙂

Wish I had more time to play tbh. Got a PS3 and ps2. I just recompleted GTA vice city. Forgot how good that game is.

Mines a labour of love too and sentimental. Just trying what the best option is to get mine mobile again.

That's good then 😃

Wow, you've made great progress. I need my engine out yet lol 😆

No probs

You could look at continental or Toyo

Could it be the exhaust rattling on the body? Or a loose exhaust heat shield

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch. Think you'll find the plastic backing is the back. Behind that there'll be foam, fabric and the frame

Think westfalia is the genuine one. You could also try Witter.

No probs

Could definitely failed compressor.

Various tuning companies out there for remaps. Make sure you pick one that has a rolling road. Celtic tuning, revi, darkside developments are some examples

Could arrange something. I'm based in Leicester and fellow member I meet up is in Wolverhampton.

Thanks kev. Heard the 2.7 suffers from injector a d timing chain issues. I've had a quote to rebuild my engine for £2200. But then I'd have to get a new turbo, injectors etc. This company: http://hayesengines4x4.co.uk/ Very tempted with this option but do a turbo upgrade from the 3.0TDI which can be converted to work along with upgrade (race injectors), FMIC, egr blank, aluminium rad, sports exhaust and then remap on the new engine. Think this could give best of both worlds of new engine and extra performance. I'd be adding a new clutch and dmf. Very tempted to fit a new injection pump.

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 Glad you've looked at YouTube videos. Make sure all electrical items work and gearbox has been serviced. And quattro system has been serviced. Linked to this make sure tyres are the same brand and the same tread on the the same axle if that makes sense Yep Timing chain can always be an issue but should be fine as long as car has been serviced on time.
