Another White 1.6 TDI Caddy Work Van

Post by Doig5710 »

Here's my new Caddy, a 2012 1.6 TDI, it sat in a paddock for 10 years after getting in an accident, it got fixed but never put back together. I found it and have got it back on the road, but it's still got a few issues along with a massive list of things I hope to to to it to upgrade things slowly.
Because it sat outside with no front end on it for so long there's all sorts of front end connections which are quite corroded and I am going to slowly go through and replace the terminals as I get them.

Replaed so far
All 4 injectors
Cyl 3 glow plug - P0673 problem still there
Boost solenoid - P2563 problem still there
Wheels, but will be replaced again in the future
Steering wheel - new one still not working properly yet

First upgrade is maybe 1/2 done, have a Amarok MIB2 radio fitted and CP deleted which leaves a CP code but I'm ok with that for now, also need to change the GTE logo that comes up on startup.
Also needed to upgrade the gateway module, cheapest place was AliExpress and it seems to be working for now.
The other upgrades were a wireless phone holder/charger where I drilled a hole on the inside of the air vent and have a usb charger in behind where the power socket used to live, now it's another USB charger and also a high power USB C charger for my laptops when I need.

Also fitted a new steering wheel but I need to order a steering wheel adapter and a newer steering wheel module as well so nothing works yet.

Still need to connect microphone for Bluetooth calling and a reverse camera when I get more time.

Did you have to code in the new gateway module?

Changing a gateway requires CP to be removed as well as coding.

It’s the master part of the CP ring.
