    GPS Lost

    GPS has switched itself off on TD6 Vogue. Seems to think I'm 200km from home, when I'm in the driveway. Any ideas? Thanks.

    Trans Failsafe Prog Message

    Thanks everyone. Reassured about the buzz at 80kph. If I buy diagnostics software, where do I start? Is there anything you'd recommend and anyone that you'd recommend to talk me through it? I'm in the middle of nowhere, SW France. Thanks!

    Anyone know of an independent who could carry out diagnostics on my vogue 2005 TDi? I wouldn't know where to start!! Thanks everyone!

    Thanks Hippo - I bought a new battery last month, can they be unreliable when new? Also, hope this is unrelated.. when I hit 80kmph, there is a low 'buzz' or hum that seems to come from near the windscreen wipers, any thoughts on that? Thanks for your help.

    Best Battery for Vogue 2005 TD6?

    Dopey, Thanks for that. I've called them & it is great to know that they can deliver to us and save me €100. The one you've recommended is bigger than the current one, but I'm getting my wellies on, getting out in the snow and under the bonnet now... thanks.

    Best Battery for Vogue 2005 TD6?

    Hello All, In the last two weeks, temperatures here have been around the -10 mark over night and when we need our car, the battery is flat. We think it's time to bite the bullet and buy a new one (battery that is, I've been over-ruled on the purchase of a new car). I've checked the manual...

    France Based - 2005 Vogue Battery Drain

    I set it to come on for 1.5 hours, which I had thought meant after 1.5 of drive time! Anyway, it has started today - seems it was all my fault! Grrr! Thanks for your help and to the others who responded too. Good to know where to come next time.

    France Based - 2005 Vogue Battery Drain

    Thanks again for the help. Started first time this morning, fingers crossed that this was the problem. What is the purpose of the timed climate control if it's going to drain the battery though? How's it supposed to be used? It was -6 degrees here the morning the car first didn't start.

    France Based - 2005 Vogue Battery Drain

    Datatek, thanks so much for the suggestion. We'll try this. Do you know if the timed climate control could contribute to a battery issue? This is the only setting that we've changed recently, turned this off yesterday afternoon and the battery didn't drain overnight... We're about an hour...
