Golf/GTI VII :: Error Codes When Upgrading To Coilovers From DCC?


Dec 13, 2015

I'm reaching out to see if any other MQB platform owners who had DCC/Magride are experiencing suspension errors after upgrading to coilovers while employing a delete kit. Some of us S3 owners have been running into this issue after such an upgrade and using this kit by KW. I can throw a suspension error on demand in my S3 by taking a turn/curve at 40mph+ (highway on/off ramps work perfectly for this). A bumpy road or hard braking can also cause an error to be thrown.

Aside from the error being annoying sounding and looking it also re-enabled traction control. You cannot turn traction control back off until you've power cycled the car. This is a pretty annoying side effect that could also be pretty dangerous under the right circumstances. KW seems to think their kit is operating correctly and that the height sensors are out of range due to lowering the car. Currently there's no way to adjust where the height sensors sit so in my personal opinion this seems like a massive oversight on KWs part and their product is not working correctly.

Golf V R32 :: Car Is Throwing Error Codes

I just has a gen 2 haldex and wireless controller installed. 10 minutes of driving around getting on it in sport mode, I feel a thunk from the back and when slowing down a few odd shudders. Drove it cautiously a bit more and felt fine, then harder and harder. Felt better, no understeer, seemed ok.

Got home and scanned with Vagcom, got the errors below, cleared DTC and scanned again, same errors.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Error Codes P 1137, P1297, P1171 Diagnosed

So my car has been running a little rough for a while(about 6-8 months now) and the CEL has been going off sporadically. The clutch went out last week and has been replaced fixing a large part of the issue, however the car still feels kind of rough in the 3k rpm range and up. I feel a strong vibration when I step on the throttle and the car hesitates to build power. On cold starts the car also has a rough idle where the rpms are hovering above 1k for a few minutes.

I recently took the car over to AU Tuning where they gave me a free diagnostic(Pacific German was charging me $100 just for a diagnostic!?). They told me the throttle body might need a cleaning but I was better off replacing the whole unit. They also discovered my air intake hose torn near the diverter valve and a 5 bar Fuel Pressure Regulator that was pressed in for added pressure.

Given that I just replaced the clutch, funds are tight and I don't have the money to replace everything right away

I should mention VAG-Com reported the following codes:

P1137 Fuel Trim: Bank 1 - System too Rich,

P1297 Pressure Drop between Turbo and Throttle Valve (check D.V.!)

P1171 Angle Sensor 2 for Throttle Actuator(G188) Implausible Signal

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Climatronic Test With Two Error Codes 04B6 And 0318

I recently bought this golf and well gotta say very happy with it, W reg so 2000 model and it the 1.9 TDI SE variant, 29,000 miles and only one owner from new. But like many before me I have a air con issue.

So here's what I have looked at. Done the climatronic test with two error codes

04B6 Standing Time Signal

0318 Air Conditioner Pressure Switch

The blower works inside etc, but only blows warm air. I can hear the engine rev's change when I push the Econ button. So car is pretty mint but 15 years old, where should I start looking.

Golf/GTI VI :: Foot Well / License Plate LEDs Throwing Error Codes?

Any LED I can throw in the footwells / license plate area that won't throw a code? I'm using the ones from superbrightleds.

They worked everywhere except the license plate and the footwells. Everytime I get in my car I have to see (check license plate lights!) and a bulb out icon.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Check Engine Light With Error Codes 17748, P1340

I'm having some problems with my 05 1.8T GTI. I've had a check engine light for about 3 months and finally got a diagnostic tool (VAG V-checker). Right now I have one code 17748.P1340 Camshaft position sensor-G40/engine speed sensor -G28: incorrect allocation.

I researched a little bit and talked with some of the guys at the local VW dealership. From what I learned this could be related to (obviously) faulty camshaft position sensor and/or faulty engine speed sensor. So I've replaced both of these sensors and even cleaned the Mass Airflow sensor.

I cleared the code and after driving about 5 minutes the code came back. Also I recently had a P0300 and P0304 cylinder 4 misfire default code. So I've changed all of the ignition coils too since I heard they were recalled a while back.

Golf VI R :: What Should Be The Max Height Of Coilovers In Winter

So, I am starting to look at coilover kits. I really want to have as close to stock ride height in the winter. Deep snow and chunks of snow/ice on the road are common here and I don't want to break bumpers. At least I don't want to break bumpers any more than a stock car would.

In the summer however, I want to lose the gap. Really given the last couple of winters, it would be really nice to be able to change the ride height in just a few minutes, without removing wheels or jacking the car up.

It seems that the coilover kits I have seen so far start at about 1" lower than stock. Are there any kits out there that start at, or close to, stock height? I know 1" isn't much lower than stock, but again I am trying to get as close to stock for winter driving. Is there something that can be added to these kits to push the max height up some?

Oh yeah, ride quality and cornering performance are important too!

Golf VI R :: Installed ST Coilovers - Creaking In Reverse At Really Slow Speeds

Installed ST coilovers at 2200 miles, my only suspension mod. When I'm backing up or going at really slow speeds and turning there is a very annoying creaking/grinding noise. I've taken everything apart and looked at it again to no avail. Anything I should be looking for in specific?Could it be from over-tightening? Just thought I'd ask here before I take it to a shop.

Golf/GTI VI :: Installing Solo Werks Coilovers - Should Bearings Be Changed

So let me start off with telling you I only ha email 6500 miles on my car now. At 800 miles I installed h&r sports springs on the stock shocks and struts. No noises what so ever. Now I've had PLENTY of time on the drive on them and just not happy with how low I am. I ordered a set of solo werks coil overs, to put on until I can afford a bag setup. My question is, should the bearings be changed now, or am I still good with them being low miles? What's the mileage, that most people are installing and getting this sound?

Golf/GTI VI :: Clunking On Rear Driver Side After Coilovers Installed

Installed coilovers last weekend, and heard a clunking on the rear drivers side. I figured i'd let it settle a week before going back and double checking everything and setting the height i wanted, but everything seems tight and it still clunks when i go over bumps.

I realize I can speculate all i want online, but I'd like possible causes before I start digging.

- top strut mount gone bad (there a way to test this?)
- top strut loose (either to the car or to the strut itself)
- springs not seated perfectly

And I have searched, but i cant find any possible solutions.

Golf/GTI VII :: Wobbles After Upgrading Transmission Software?

I read posts here about the shimmy/wobble some owners are experiencing with their GTIs and TSIs. I never had it for 10,000 miles on my Golf Sport TSI with standard triptronic. The dealer said they were upgrading my transmission software when I had my free oil change. Now it does wobble and it is very irritating. Does this affect both DSG and Triptronic vehicles? If so, I am prone to believe that the problem lies elsewhere. What do you think?

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Error Codes Appeared

I'm getting codes P0441, P0446, P0456, P0420 and P0430.

My fuel consumption in town is around 12 mpg, so a bit higher than what others report. The cats were removed because they were in bad condition. I suspect excess fuel was sent to the cats. That would also explain the bad mpg ?
