I had all the symptoms above a couple of weeks ago, car had been sitting at -20 or colder for three or four days and it was 8:30 am after a -28 night. Hooked up my warm LI jump pack and she fired up almost like a warm day.

If it comes back I’d check grounds and wiring. I had a similar issue which I think was a connector sort of under the battery box or behind the headlight. On my car (2010) the steering sensor is in the steering rack. and wiring runs from there to the abs module via the connector behind headlight...

O2 sensor IIRC

If you go the delete route you can gut the dpf instead of changing the exhaust. Still need a tune to make it work without trying to regen and melting your bumper. Advantage is you keep the factory cat upstream of the dpf. No smell, no change in exhaust sound, looks stock. Malone did their...

If you can get hold of an old brake pad cut the sensor plug off and jump it. Then you can plug it into the car side to turn the light off. I had a set of pads that were faulty from installation and that was my work around. Now the car side corroded through at the connector so they are...

Check wiring for chafing, damage. Might not be the sensor.

Here is an iCloud link to a video my body guy took of that area on my car when he repaired it last summer. https://share.icloud.com/photos/0425XUpc1byjb7q_RowCnZLLg It’s too big for the server. He caught mine in time I hope. There were some perforations although nothing visible from outside...

A CJAA running properly does not run rough for more than 30 seconds no matter how cold. To me really cold means -25 C. I’ve started mine twice in the last week with coolant temperature near 0 C. The only difference from a warm day is I can hear the injectors clacking away for maybe two minutes...

I wonder if you have a ground issue, the starter ground and all the other components connected to it going positive when you try to start the car. The ground in question might be the one under the air filter and isn’t hard to get to. Just remove the intake plumbing, one two bolts or nuts and a...

I don’t think that is a lot of miles on ball joints, tie rod ends and front control arm bushings. My mk4 ran double that before the first tie rod end failed. Rear control arm bushings are easy to change on the car. I changed mine to S2 spec about 150000 miles back, not because the old ones were...

You can see the electrical tape I put on the wires when I thought I would have to re-use the loom. The new one arrived in time. This location is inside the boot between the door and the car body. The orange bit at the right is the locking handle on the 28 pin connector to the car.

I have a 5k0 937 087 Z4Y which I believe was for a Tiguan. The 087 denotes a high line BCM and the Z4y is the revision. An 086 is a mid line BCM. I think any revision which appears to be higher than the original one in your car will work. The 5k0 is the key. As I recall the 1K0 and 5K0 revisions...

I think you might find some issues related to your rear hatch. A Tiguan BCM should work though.

My issue is solved. There were multiple wires, including the can-bus, with cracked insulation in the boot area. I was able to find a newer harness ‘CD’ on eBay.

Suggest you head over to https://erwin.vw.com, buy a 24 hour license and download everything you might ever want. It’s cheap and will only take an hour or so.

More than 100,000 km with a Malone 2 and delete. Nothing other than regular maintenance, no tune related issues, runs very well. 6sp manual so I can’t comment on dsg tune. I went with Malone because they did loads of testing for reliability.

I’m not sure a vacuum line is the only thing. Did you get all the connectors on the firewall back together? Orange, Brown, Black if I recall correctly. Depending on your delete they might not all be there but IIRC one of them is exhaust manifold temperature and the ECU gets angry if it is not...

First question- who is telling you your ecu is fried? You have had some wiring damage which apparently is stopping the car from starting but nothing in your message necessarily indicates the ecu is done. my read of your message: Your NOx trap is gone the DPF, DIesel catalyst and SO2 trap are...
