Been "playing" with the obdeleven and have worked out that the switch stalk functions are all working when I push pull lift and press done via live data on steering column section .

What to check next ?

I've changed the brake switch for eliminating purposes and still no cruise control .

I've bought an OBDELEVEN PRO next gen .

If anyone can explain the process to diagnose the cause with it I would be grateful.

I've scanned for fault codes but non shown

Is there anyone in northeast got vagcom ? That would be willing to put my car on to see if it shows anything why the cruise control not working.

No ideas on forum ??

Hi bought this last week and had it out for a run today and can't get the cruise control to work no lights on dash . Found a few posts for manual saying about the clutch switch but mines an auto so no clutch switch ... any ideas please

Hello Peter,

For what it  means, both brands mentioned are most likely to have been ‘bought on price’, and particularly with Triple QX, it often comes or can come, as part of a Crossland filter combination. Crossland were once a very well respected brand, but now a bought-out brand mane exclusive to ECP. WouldI use them? No, but that’s a personal opinion. 

Based on the fact that DIY maintenance obviously comes free of labour charges, I always invest the savings by only buying quality parts - at best possible prices. To this end, I have stuck with Quantum oil which is/was the VAG recommended brand, and is usually listed on EBay. It has stood me in good stead with the humble A3 which now has in excess of 160K under its belt. Filters? only Mann or Bosch unless using VAG (at discount). 

Not sure of any of this helps. 

Kind regards,

Gareth. 

Thanks for input....

I have bosch filters to use (air , oil , fuel )...

As long as the oil I have falls in spec for the car I'll use it as I can't see the point of leaving approx 15l of oil sitting in the shed... 

When I bought the mannol for the d5 volvo I read the reviews and it had good recommendations

Hi Peter,

I'm using Triple QX Fully Synthetic 0w-30 from EuroCarParts. I don't know how it compares with the leading brands, but I've been using it for years in a variety of cars and I'm not aware that it's done me wrong. I have a 2.0TFSI, so don't know of this will be compatible with yours.

Thanks for taking time to reply ... I've got 3/4 of a 20l barrel of 5w30 mannol premium fully synthetic that I used in my Volvo xc90 .

I'm going to write down the details on the drum and check if that's suitable

Just bought it last Thursday. 

Before I put it on the road I,m going to do the timing belt kit inc water pump. Aux drive belt kit , full engine service and change the cvt fluid ... 

Just wondering what engine oil you lot are using  and where are you getting from ?

Couple of pics of the new toy....

Has 145k miles some history. 12 months test drives spot on no knocks , bangs or funny noises.

Before I put it on the road I'm going to change timing belt and water pump. auxiliary drive belt. service engine and change cvt fluid .

Going to get the oil pressure tested just for piece of mind & change the hex drive if needed 

Any other ideas on what to do let me know 

Hi just bought a a4 avant 2.0tdi b7 .

This is my 2nd audi over the years I had a b5 avant 1.9 a few years back. 

Looking forward to the wealth of knowledge that forums give
