Fuchs have a compatible oil that meets the vw specs
.. ..
Took VW 3 weeks to approve my good will claim, pretty slack.
Don't let up on VW Aust, keep calling and emailing them till you get a response. If all your services were completed at VW dealerships, then i think you'd have a decent chance at getting a goodwill...
Wai, the dealer replaced the rotors the day before I picked up the van, I saw the old worn rotors on the test drive and shiny new ones the day I picked it up. That was 5 months ago and there is no...
Finally got a chance to check out the brakes and i think i worked out where the grinding noise was coming from. The inner edge of the outer pads are touching the hard steel trim part of the rotors. I...
Got myself VAGCOM and scanned for the following results:
Control Module Part Number: 7H2 907 040 C
Component and/or Version: CLIMAtronic T5 4221
Software Coding: 0011040

Thanks wai, i'll shamfer the pads while i've got them out. As for the tyres, yes they're asymmetrical and noisy as hell especially when cornering. I had wheel alignment done not long ago after i...
I've got some of the anti-squeal spray (red can) which i'll apply to the rear of the pads and i'll lube the pistons while i'm in there.
No joy sourcing the shims.
VW don't sell the anti-rattle/squeal shims separately. Does anyone have a spare set (fronts) lying around or know where i can source them?
I used one piece of marine carpet, marked it out to the mm and cut. Runs from the front all the way to the rear seats in one piece so it doesn't move and super easy to clean.
I feel for you cousin. My T5 is the first VW I've owned and I was aware of auto problems prior to purchasing, and sure enough the tranny was replaced under the used car warranty in the first month of...
I still haven't had a chance to get the wheels off and inspect the front brakes, but i had a quick look with the wheels on. Can i lift the caliper and get the pads out by just removing the slider...
Can someone point me in the right direction to purchase a VCDS (VAGCOM) suitable for my T5? Are the hong kong specials on ebay ok?
I need to identify which flap actuator has failed.
A google search shows that this is a common problem in T4's with a valve/cable being the culprit. Do T5's with the automatic multi-zone climate control have the same valve/cable setup?
The driver's side climate control on my 2007 T5 Multivan Highline is blowing hot air regardless of what temp is selected. Passenger side and main cabin a/c are working fine.
Do each of the a/c...
Looks HOT
I think from memory they were TRW, not at home to check right now.
Double post
Rotors were definitely replaced. I was at the dealership two days in a row, and on the second day shiny new rotors were in place. I asked the dealership at the very least to machine the existing...
Rotors and pads were both replaced. Could the new rotors develop a lip in 5 months?

The non vw dealer i purchased my multivan from 5 months ago replaced the tyres, brake pads and rotors as part of the deal. The tyres are Trazano brand which i've never heard of, and are very noisy...
@djbazzab it's like were brothers or something :nana:
Are you guys getting the same response from different dealerships, or are some more supportive than others? The reason i ask is that i...
Just an idea, but why don't all effected owners turn up with their cars to the same dealership at the same time and refuse to leave until you get a satisfactory response? Might be a little drastic,...
