Re: Patil's T-roc 2020 1.5Tsi evo+Dsg7 RHD

New more powerful wireless charger 15W OEM.

Previously, I had retrofitted 5w OEM wireless charger. Not that it was bad, but awfully slow at charging.

New updated OEM wireless chargers have arrived with different ratings maximum upto 40W. With ...

Well done! πŸ‘
It's incredible how previously acquired knowledge and experience helps. Reminded me of a famous quote used by teachers in medical schools " The eyes cannot see what the mind does not know"

Re: BCM upgrade from 7H0 to 7E0, flickering instrument cluster and all buttons

After t73b/34 disaster, my eyes were on t73b/1 next, not way off though 😁

I thought T73b/34 is 58d output signal all along, so it makes sense now and I stand corrected.

This is what happens when a doctor tries to repair a car πŸ˜‚

Re: BCM upgrade from 7H0 to 7E0, flickering instrument cluster and all buttons



Hi there.
Looks like signal 58/58d conflict is going on after BCM swap. Temporarily isolate T73/b 34 wire from BCM and see if problem resolves.

Thank you for tips dear master. I will follow your instructions during installation.πŸ‘

I have received the blue brake kit from Germany.😎 It will take some time for me install. I am yet to buy front 312 discs, most likely I will go with OEM discs only because they are good easy to source.

The new 312mm brake discs would be a perfect match for wheels of at least 18 inches . It's not just about aesthetics, but also about performance. The braking will be very satisfying, ... exceptionally satisfying. πŸ˜‰

Re: POLO 6R. G85. Address 04 ❔

I can happily try flashing 1KD unit on my 1K8 unit and share the results if I can get the files. The 1KD unit is available for around 40€ in Chinese domestic market not on AliExpress.
I prefer using VCP than ODIS-E for flashing these units from past experience.

Re: POLO 6R. G85. Address 04 ❔

I guess, the error in 1K8 OPS module is happening due to missing handshake the 1K8 module expects from Steering control unit address 16 which our cars don't have.
I've seen a autoscan in which 1K8919472C was retrofitted with address 16 present in GW list and no such error logged.
And also, I have ...

I am considering few image hosting websites. Imgbb is one, but not as versatile as imgur. Russian sites is a interesting recommendation. Considering my geographical location and geopolitical situation, it's unlikely that Russians will ban me :mrgreen:

Re: Skoda Octavia MK4 2023, 2.0TDi DSG Ambition

With πŸ’― certainty I can say that MQBEvo/MQB 2020(SFD/SFD2) etc..have been cracked successfully. Hell lot of OEM retrofits have been done on these platforms. Unfortunately, I have no information about how it's done. You see when it comes to monetary loss, very less information flows out in public ...
