I wouldn't run parking mode off the normal starter battery in a startstop vehicle.
They tend to be 75Ah and will only be charged to around 80% due to smart alternator and startstop. They will be damaged below 50% charge. That means you only have about 23Ah of effective capacity.
As most dash...
btw I've ordered here: Voll LED Rückleuchten für VW T6 2015-2019 rot T6.1-Look sequentieller Start Laufblinker fast EU shippment, no need to wait ;) I'm only wondering, if stop light illuminates 3 or 4 areas
And there’s me in my T5.1 thinking wtf doesn’t this do stop/start when my Golf of the same age does?
The Golf has far fewer problems than my van as well. In fact I’ve never had an issue with any of the cars I’ve owned with stop/start, not relating to that feature anyway.
Golf is still on the...
Don’t forget there can be a number of reasons the stopstart doesn’t work (temporarily), a/c switched on, low voltage in the starter battery, once the various parameters are met it will kick in. Personally I switch it off when I start a drive as I don’t like it
Ok I have done some diagnosing. Reverse lights and aux reverse light stop working only after starting the engine, putting it into reverse, taking parking brake off and starting to move. At the same time the reverse camera stops working (screen turns blue). If I switch the ignition off and back...
I've got the van's lights on AUTO so when I turn the ignition to ON the HID's switch on
When I turn the key to start the van, the HID's briefly flicker while the engine is "turning" or starting, and once the van is running they stay on.
While in the city, they stay on when the van shuts off...
Started ok reversed to get out of drive and stopped in the middle of the pavement, no error message or anything. Now Ignition is dead no response when key is in and turned on. Radio works, battery seems ok. Ignition relay fuse is ok. Any ideas. Can anyone help please.
Not thought of that. However I use know when it had just done a regen as the fan was on full when I stopped. Use to happen regularly but not seen it for about 6 months now. Coupled with the fact the auto start/stop feature doesn’t work every time I’m thinking there must be something that’s...
I also have a factory fit battery under passenger seat, rang vw they didn't seem too sure what it was for, brother in law thought maybe something to do with stop/start.
It would be nice to know if we could use this as an auxiliary battery
Oh and also sometimes it has problems with the start/stop system. Occasionally it says something like "error startstop" and then it would not work. Even though that does not really bother me since I've always turned startstop anyway.
Hi I seem to have the same issue. Noise is very loud and starts as soon as I turn the ignition on. Starting the engine does not cause the noise to stop. I have not actually driven vehicle very far (just been delivered) so don’t know if the noise will eventually stop.
Did you ever figure out what...
