Carista diagnostic fault code date / time stamps

[JeremyC]

Hi all.
Just got Carista, handy for basic diags as engine management light came on. Now know I need a new glowplug. Anyway, fault code timestamps are well out year 2081 and wrong date and time! Is this a known issue please?

I have this problem. Faults time stamped 2058 and 2059. Did anyone have a solution? I have messaged Carista Support to see if they can help. Example screenshot attached below.

Time and date stamps on non-MQB VWs aren't usable as there is no internally stored time/date information for the modules to reference to for fault codes.

Yup, agreed VCDS is the same, the dates are all over the place. It’s a vehicle issue, not a diagnostic software problem.
