    LED Reversing lamp

    Been looking at all the threads regarding Cree LED P21W reversing lamps but most seem several years old now. Obviously, LED technology has moved on, and canbus compatibility issues must have improved (one hopes). What have people fitted recently that are canbus happy? It seems the cheaper Cree...

    Reversing Camera Lines Cupra

    I specified a reversing camera as an option on my 2019 Cupra, however there are no steering lines when the camera is on, the lines are just fixed and do not move with the steering wheel, Is this correct? Is there any way of enabling the steering wheel lines?
  3. Factory fit reversing sensors

    Hi all, I am having a problem with my factory fitted reversing sensors. Basically, when I put the car in reverse, the system beeps for 4-5 seconds then stops and the sensors do not work, I take it this is an indication of an error. However, the sensors do work occasionally. I actually had...

    Reversing light install

    With abit of time on my hands I finally got round to installing the LED lights I bought in the summer, to act as additional reversing lamps. I reverse down an unlit access road 4-5 times a week and as it's narrow I wouldn't mind seeing abit more. After some looking and thinking I decided to...

    Brake issue when reversing

    Right then, a problem has arisen with the brakes on my tolly v5. All the discs and pads were changed in January and they all still appear nice and healthy. The stopping performance is still good. However, the brakes have begun to graunch extremly loudly when I reverse, and occasionally sligthly...

    Reversing Lights

    New SC 1.6 Sport picked up yesterday. So far so good, love the car, only 2 minor items. First is Mirror adjustment knob gets caught when turning lights on/off. Other is the pathetic Reversing light. My old C2 was like 2 flood lights out the back. Should only 1 of the lights actually work...

  10. Stalled reversing power output issues

    Ummm Would leaving an interior light on in the car for two days cause me to have power steering issues? I understand the pump runs of the battery. Reversing out at low revs wouldn't put enough power out to run the pump and cause it to potentially cut out. Is this something that could have...

    09 reversing lamp/lense

    Saw a 09 reg Altea this morning and as it passed I noticed that the rear reversing lamp/lense is different. It was part red and part white, so was wondering if this is an easy interchangable part. So hopefully we can be seen when reversing. I know a lot of owners have complianed about...

  18. Single Reversing Light-I take a Dim View

    After my test drive on the Leon FR DSG I could not fault a single thing. I have now found one, a single reversing light. As a cost-cutting measure this is truly pathetic. It is made worse by the fact that the single light is located on the nearside of the car. This is not quite so bad if you...
  19. Brighter reversing light bulb?

    Hi Anyone know whether there is a better (brighter) bulb on the market that is compatible with the Leon Mk2 reversing light (and won't trigger any faults)? I park in an unlit, private car-park and, particularly on rainy nights, I have virtually nill visibility behind when reversing in to...
