put another 10lt in bud nightmear when run out

Hi Just an update, with more info. I was Sales Manager for an Italian Porcelain wall and floor tile manufacturer and distributor. I travelled extensively mainly UK but also Europe and Brazil. Took redundancy in 2000 didn't work for a couple of years. Golf handicap come down nicely. Got bored, got a job delivering and collecting new cars for a multi- franchise company. Again, travelled the UK. Now retired, playing golf again regularly. Tony

I was a policeman for 10 years or so, then an RAF Fighter Controller for 18yrs. I then travelled a bit and have been working for the civil service (currently MoD) for the last 14 years. I'm partially retired and work a two-day week at home. I like to travel, by motorcycle where practicable, and write a daily report when I do & have about 8k regular readers... I've just got back from three weeks riding in Oregon, California and Nevada... Journal

Thanks Jamie, If they were separately fused then you would still be in (more?) trouble since the fuse will have blown for some unknown reason , which must be established. Kind regards, Gareth.

Hello Jamie, We take it the passenger side one does de-mist -? If so, it unlikely to be a fuse issue ( I think it’s unlikely that the n/s and o/s are separately fused). Possibilities:- the element has failed in the driver’s side one. The electrical feed to the mirror has ‘failed’, and you would need to test for 12v at the mirror connection. If you are not confident/competent with carrying out this test, then you will need to invest in 1/2 an hour with an auto electrician. The cable feeding the mirror has fractured-? The usual place for this to occur is where the harness goes from the A post into the front end of the drivers door - within the rubber covering - due to continued opening and closing of the door, although I would have thought your car was not old enough to have yet suffered from this issue. Kind regards, Gareth.

The sensor/system might need resetting which will be the easiest option. As such is recommend a diagnostic check. The sensor might need replacing. It could also be the pump as it was in this case: https://www.vwaudiforum.co.uk/forum/showthread.php/189586-Adblue-system-fault-No-restart-in-650-miles
