{In the|Within the} not so distant {pass|cross|go|move}, {whenever|at any time when|each time|every time} {something|one thing} went {wrong|fallacious|flawed|improper|incorrect|mistaken|unsuitable} in your VW, Polo, Jetta, Passat, Audi, Seat or Skoda, {you could|you can|you could possibly|you may|you might|you possibly can|you would} do {one of|certainly one of|considered one of|one among|one in all|one in every of} two {things|issues}. Either take it to a VW specialist to have it checked out or {you could|you can|you could possibly|you may|you might|you possibly can|you would} {fix|repair} it {yourself|your self}, if {you are a|you're a} {hands|arms|fingers|palms}-on, DIY {kind of|form of|sort of|type of} {person|individual|particular person}. Nowadays the latter {option|choice|possibility} has {faded|light|pale} away into obscurity. With the stream of {problems|issues} VAG {cars|automobiles|vehicles} are having, {many of us|many people} are {in the dark|at midnight|at nighttime|at the hours of darkness|in the dead of night} {regarding|concerning|relating to} repairs. We make educated guesses, {replace|change|exchange|substitute} {parts|components|elements} by substitution, {often|typically|usually} costing {huge|big|enormous|large} {amounts|quantities} {of money|of cash} for repairs and the fault {still|nonetheless} persists. Below {I have|I've} out-lined {some of|a few of} {the problems|the issues} {I have|I've} encountered and with any luck shed some {light|gentle|mild} on {the problems|the issues} {you've|you have|you've got} been having {with your|along with your|together with your} VAG {car|automobile|automotive}. Well, VAG stands for Volkswagen-Audi GMBH in Germany, {also|additionally} refers to Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft or Volkswagen AG {for short|for brief} and Volkswagen-Audi Gelelschaft (Geleslschaft means Association). In essence, {it's|it is} {the same|the identical}, {exact|actual|precise} and {identical|an identical|equivalent|similar} group.
And any {car|automobile|automotive} manufactured or {sold|bought|offered} by them is {referred to as|known as} a VAG {car|automobile|automotive}. VW EPC {light|gentle|mild} {problem|downside|drawback}. {The idea|The concept|The thought} behind {this is|that is} {so that|in order that} {only|solely} the Volkswagen dealership technician are {supposed to|alleged to|imagined to|presupposed to|purported to|speculated to} do the servicing and {perform|carry out} repairs to your {car|automobile|automotive}. The VW {car|automobile|automotive} manuals {specifically|particularly} discourages {anyone|anybody} {other than|apart from|aside from} {qualified|certified} or {trained|educated|skilled} mechanics /auto-electricians and technicians or mechanicians to {perform|carry out} servicing, {especially|particularly} {changing|altering} codes and performing readiness {test|check|take a look at}. Under the OBD II {and can|and may|and might}-Bus {standard|commonplace|customary|normal}, an ECU (Engine Control unit) interfaces with {various|numerous|varied} {other|different} modules fitted {in the|within the} {car|automobile|automotive} and controls and manages all sub-circuits. When one {of these|of those} modules detects a fault with {one of|certainly one of|considered one of|one among|one in all|one in every of} its {components|elements|parts}, it registers a error {in the|within the} non-{volatile|risky|unstable} {memory|reminiscence}. Lets say {you have|you could have|you have got|you may have|you might have|you will have|you've|you've got|you've gotten} a {front|entrance} wiper motor {problem|downside|drawback} and it {just|simply} wont work, {but the|however the} fuses are Ok. Even {if you|for those who|if you happen to|in case you|in the event you|should you|when you} suspect the wiper motor as {faulty|defective} and it {actually|really|truly} is {faulty|defective} {and you|and also you} {replace|change|exchange|substitute} it, {the new|the brand new} wiper motor {still|nonetheless} wont work after its been {replaced|changed} and switched on.
You first {have to|must|need to|should} clear the error or errors from non-{volatile|risky|unstable} {memory|reminiscence} with a diagnostic {tool|device|instrument|software}. Then and {only|solely} then will it work. I've had {the same|the identical} {results|outcomes} with my {power|energy} steering which {just|simply} {wouldn't|would not} work after some work was {done|accomplished|achieved|carried out|completed|executed|finished|performed} to my {car|automobile|automotive} and in {the process|the method} {the power|the ability|the facility} Steering Motor was disconnected. When it was reconnected {the power|the ability|the facility} steering was very stiff and {difficult|tough|troublesome} to steer. After going {through|by|by means of|by way of|via} {the entire|all the|the complete|the whole|your complete|your entire} {process of|means of|strategy of|technique of} checking and {back|again}-{tracking|monitoring} it {still|nonetheless} {didn't|did not} work. Eventually, when the diagnostic tester was plugged in, two errors codes {showed|confirmed} up. 30V {supply|provide} had dropped to an unreliable {level|degree|stage} and the second a {power|energy} steering error. {The first|The primary} was {because|as a result of} the battery was disconnected and the second was {because|as a result of} {the power|the ability|the facility} steering plug was disconnected. After erasing {the two|the 2} error codes from the non-{volatile|risky|unstable} {memory|reminiscence}, {the power|the ability|the facility} steering work {perfectly|completely} {normal|regular}. I can assuredly say that {I am not|I'm not} alone or {rather|fairly|moderately|quite|reasonably|relatively|slightly|somewhat} that my {car|automobile|automotive} {trouble|bother|hassle} {is not|is just not|isn't|just isn't|shouldn't be|will not be} {unique|distinctive}, neither am I {the only|the one} VW {owner|proprietor} having {car|automobile|automotive} {trouble|bother|hassle} (see {previous|earlier} blogs). It {appears|seems} that my 2007 Polo Classic Highline shares most of {the problems|the issues} listed {below|beneath|under} with my fellow VW {owners|homeowners|house owners}. There are {probably|in all probability|most likely} {hundreds|a whole bunch|a whole lot|lots of|tons of} if not {thousands|1000's|hundreds} of {other|different} VAG {car|automobile|automotive} {owners|homeowners|house owners} experiencing {the same|the identical} {issues|points} with their {cars|automobiles|vehicles} as {I am|I'm} experiencing with mine. Fellow VW drivers {found|discovered} this site to be {helpful|useful} and was {interested in|all for|all in favour of|concerned about|concerned with|considering|curious about|desirous about|eager about|enthusiastic about|excited about|excited by|fascinated about|fascinated by|fascinated with|focused on|inquisitive about|interested by|involved in|keen on|occupied with|serious about|taken with|thinking about} {checking out|testing|trying out} {the following|the next} {sites|websites} as {well|effectively|nicely|properly}.
{It is|It's} {slightly|barely} dull and a {less|much less} mature design {compared to|in comparison with} the likes of the Kia Forte. {The overall|The general} {shape|form}, {while|whereas} {modern|fashionable|trendy} {isn't|is not} as {nice|good} {to look at|to have a look at|to take a look at} {as the|because the} Forte. It {shows|exhibits|reveals} that Proton would {need to be|have to be|must be|should be} {more|extra} assertive {in their|of their} designs. {In fact|Actually|In actual fact|In reality|In truth|The truth is}, I {have to|must|need to|should} complain on why Proton {did not|didn't} use {the light|the sunshine} clusters from the Tuah prototype it displayed a {year|12 months|yr} or so {ago|in the past}. {I am not|I'm not} {buying|shopping for} this {car|automobile|automotive} {simply because|just because} {I have|I've} outgrown the market {segment|phase|section} Proton is {targeting|concentrating on|focusing on}. {But if|But when} I {were|had been|have been} {looking for|in search of|on the lookout for|searching for} a {4|four} door sedan {in the|within the} RM60,000 to RM80,000, the Preve {would be|can be|could be} very {high|excessive} on my {list|checklist|listing|record} of {fun|enjoyable} to drive {cars|automobiles|vehicles}. But what I {actually|really|truly} {want|need} from Proton {is this|is that this} - a swoopy 2 door 1.6liter turbocharged mid-engined coupe {that looks|that appears} like Eva Longoria or Olivia Wilde, coupled with the Preve's {ride|experience|journey|trip} and {handling|dealing with} and a {price|value|worth} tag of {around|round} RM90,000. Now Proton, IS that {too much|a lot|an excessive amount of} to ask?
