Merry Christmas Everybody 🎄🥂❤️
Nothing realy new to report but… I finally got the little screw for the brake master cylinder!😅 Only took 9 months to come🫣🙄 I even forgot all about it!!
Got a phonecall from my local VW garage saying that my order has arrived…
!?!🤔 ooooh that screw!!!🤣
Will take it with me next time I go home 🇭🇷 Now celebrating with family & friends in 🇧🇪
But to be honest…. It’s itching to work on all of them, only the Up is here…
Anyway…. I wish you all the best for 2026❤️

How to Guides / Troubleshooting / Re: How To: Mk5 Heated Seats Retrofit
« Last post by Golf5FSI on December 24, 2025, 11:23:14 am »UPDATE:
I have managed to fix it, after I put some time and study schemas from "jason_rmh" in post nr1 of this thread
1. I have joined together pin2 and pin4 passenger on heat seat connector on the passenger side. I have used new wire and put in pin2 and crimped with pin4 together using "U" type terminal between seat and female connector.
With this I have achieved direct connection between pin4 on both seats and connection to HVAC module.
2. Removed fuse SC4 (kl15) from fuse box and leave only SC46 (kl15).
With this I have removed +12v from pin4 which disturbs signal from HVAC module, while HVAC module got separately +12v via SC46 (kl15).
No error is system. Heating works now as should on both seats.
Only thing to have full Feng Shui, is to find where is spliced SC4 (kl15) with pin4 wire originally and remove join leaving pin4 connections without voltage.

Otherwise cam phaser wearcan bleed oil pressure and also the oil feed in the chain casing can get blocked.....the one with the micro gauze in it
