    Key Fob is dead

    Battery is at 3.023V but I'll try a new one next time I go to the store. I have a bunch of each type of battery except that one :(

    Key Fob is dead

    I used it to lock the doors with the engine running like I have done before (OBD Eleven mod) and when I got back in I started getting the "Key Not In Range" message all the way home. When I got home key fob would not lock the doors and the red indicator on the fob does not light up. The battery...

    MPG impressions on 2015 Golf so far

    The only other culprit I can think of is city driving. Mine regens at around 125 miles if all city driving but close to 300 miles with highway driving. Also if for some reason your egts are going high the idle will speed up, and on mine it speeds up when running AC.

    regen at idle

    I use the Club as a visual deterrent to help prevent an attempt and subsequent damage. This is while the car is running which could tempt a thief. Do you know if the steering wheel lock & immobilizer still works when the car is locked but running?

    regen at idle

    I always let my regens finish, and on the DPF fill % it always ends up around 22-23% when finished and the grams are around 5. Well the other day I had a regen start just as I arrived at someone's house. I put on the steering wheel club, left it idling and locked it up. Came out 15 or so minutes...

    Rats

    I'll try the dryer sheets. The car is driven almost daily, this is the second pack rat in 2 years. We smelled it coming in the vents (nest in cowl) Yesterday, after cleaning it all out, I installed a sonic device with blinking lights. Thankfully no wires chewed.

    Thanks, I have a 2015 CRUA. Just changed the oil Saturday:( My long crank comes and goes, seems worse when sitting a day or two. Is the new sensor plug and play or do I need VCDS or OBD eleven?

    Very Low Annual Mileage and Oil Change Intervals

    I own too many vehicles to put enough miles on them as well. Like Oilhammer I have a couple that are garaged and when brought out it is usually for long highway trips, which burns off any moisture. I also send in a sample now and then using a dipstick pump to draw out a small amount. Now the TDI...

    Fuel Prices

    All the news is talking about is gasoline prices with no mention of diesel prices. This morning the newscaster was in front of a station saying how gas was down to $3.85 and right behind her was the big green sign for diesel saying $5.59 with nary a word about it. Don't people realize they are...
