thanks for your response. i had the radio professionally installed 4 years ago and it hasn't caused any issues until recently. interestingly enough, i decided to disconnect the negative terminal on the battery so whatever was causing the draw wouldn't kill the battery overnight. hooked it back...

hey everyone, for the past week or so, my 2011 JSW needs a jump to get started every morning. there is obviously some sort of short that is causing a draw that is draining the battery but there is nothing obvious (no lights staying on for example). i have an aftermarket radio that stopped...

i've never been able to find an accurate fuse panel diagram. i sealed my sunroof shut and would like to remove the fuse so it doesn't accidentally get opened but i don't know which one it is!

I can't say I know anything for sure. The information on this particular issue seems very limited. I just saw another thread where someone was having issues like this and they replaced the ECM, after replacing the NOx converter and sensors. So who knows?

Using my OBDEleven I go to Long Adaptation and go to channel 18. You have to put in security access 12233 if I remember correctly. This tells me the temperature of the NOx converter, soot load, and nox load. I can also manually start a NOx regeneration. For me the soot load will drop as I drive...

If you're under warranty your best bet is to let the dealer eat that cost and then get rid of it before another issue pops up. it's a shame what the government did to these cars

yes, i've had that code along with P2BA6 since last summer.

i do have the car still and yes all that work was done under warranty (which I am now out of). it actually runs pretty well, although fuel mileage is down 10-15% from when I first bought it. my emissions aren't due until this coming april so I'm trying to formulate a plan to get out of this. I...

question about your source at the diesel shop: did he say why it won't pass? it won't pass visual inspection? or is there something in the ecm that would prevent it from passing if deletes are performed

i dont doubt that your driving habits contributed to it...the first time. but 6000 miles after replacement is not enough for you to be having these problems even if you doubled how bad your habits were. i had about 20k on a replaced dpf, thermostat, nox converter, intake manifold, intercooler...

i'm seconding dbbyleo's question above mine. i saw this post and was wondering if it'd be possible to gut the DPF and NOx converter (or replace it with a straight pipe made to look like a converter) so that the car may pass the visual test. is this something you've done? know someone who's done...

for my state's emissions testing, they perform visual inspections and obd testing. has anyone ever gutted the honeycomb out of the DPF and replaced the NOx converter with a gutted/straight pipe made to look like a converter? and then performed a tune? additionally, after "deleting" DPF and NOx...

it depends on how strict your state is. do they perform visual inspections/sniffer at the exhaust or just hook up the obd scanner? if it's the latter and you're properly tuned with no codes you'll pass; if they do the former you won't. i'm very much considering doing a delete, keeping the...

Good afternoon, I have read many posts over and over regarding this issue. I am trying to do everything possible to avoid a dealership visit as I am, of course, out of warranty. I have a P2BA6 (NOx exceedance) and a P1A58 code (NOx regen required), which lights up the DPF and MIL. I had the DPF...

Did you swap the turbo? If so, did this clear the codes?

I've looked around but can't seem to find any information about location of the nox sensor or instructions on removal for cleaning. I am throwing P2BA6 and P1A58 codes and did read somewhere on this forum that cleaning the nox sensor helped turn the MIL off.

Hey all, My 2011 JSW has been into the dealership numerous times for emissions related issues covered under warranty, which is now expired, and of course, I now have more issues. I have had the thermostat, intake, DPF, and cold weather freezing issue all done under warranty. Now I have a DPF...

Hey all, I was just browsing through the very long coolant issue thread where people have been having coolant spewing out the reservoir cap. It was interesting and I saw a lot of parallels to the issue I've been having but it's not quite the same. Starting this winter, every week or two my low...

Hello all, 2011 Jetta Sportwagon TDI I'm chasing a radio problem that isn't helped by the fact that VW doesn't provide a fuse panel diagram. Stock radio died a few weeks ago. I checked fuses but couldn't trace it to that. Read that this is a known issue for this radio (RD510 I think) so I...

never mind
