Mechanic has asked me to come in, pretty much resigned to needing to do the chains, most likely cause is shat a guide.

Measuring blocks are at limits, showing up as 7.something degrees now, but nothing and no symptoms earlier

So my b7, that I've had for just over a year now and hasn106k on the clock, died a couple of weeks ago. Short drive to the shops, first the epc light and a little bit of surging, then again on the...
Done. All in all, the extra 10 bolts and 20 minutes made it so much easier.
I fitted up lightforce h7 low beam globes, and they went in pretty easy. As they use a separate (canbus compatible) driver...
I was hoping that wasn't the case. Thanks again Mig

Trying to remove the headlights to retrofit led globes (yes, I know)
I can get the leds in there, but the rear caps won't go on so I need to remove the headlights to fit them up...
Cheers,
I see what that is now. In my pic you can see the blue connector which is floating and the two black ones which are connected

The, I have the alpine highline camera interface, and the picture quality is crap. Just get an aftermarket one with the bend lines off aliexpress.
Worst part would be running cable to the rear. But...
Time again, I wouldn't buy one
Slow to boot, nav is ok but not brilliant and end up using Google or waze
Agree 100% about the wires, especially that you need a separate harness for everything
But...
Update and close out
I've got everything working as it should. It was indeed a faulty canbus interface module (the apf-x300vw). I did a point to point on the leads, all good. Managed to get hold...
Update:
Turns out I have a faulty canbus interface. The interface, when working correctly, negates the need for the external 12v acc connection, and also does away with 1 of the quadlock harnesses...
Yep, I know they are triggered from the can module, I'm trying to find a usable 'acc' wire as I spend a couple of hours every week working in the car while the kids are at sport.
Found a couple of...
Thanks @MIG
Looking at what you've got on that fuse, do they come on when the ignition is on, or when the key is inserted?
I'll check the fuses, 99% sure I don't have 2 accessory fuses though

@petemac110 correct

Hey all, back and active after a hiatus.
Just picked up a 2013 passat v6 wagon. 900km yesterday to get it home to Brisbane, super comfy, may have launched every on ramp. Haven't tested the handling...
