B8 A/C Compressor implausible signal

Hey everyone,

Unfortunately I do not have my car readily available to post the scan log, but I am having issues with my AC. I will do my best to provide all the info I can. At first, I had a fault with the G395 having an implausible signal. I pulled the connector and found a bit of corrosion on 1 pin. I cleaned the corrosion, cleared the code, and checked again with no luck. So I replaced the sensor. Now when I look at my measuring blocks, it shows I actually have refrigerant pressure (12 bar), but now I have a compressor implausible signal fault. I unplugged the compressor and check the connector which looked fine. so now I'm leaning towards a bad compressor.

VCDS code 00898 - A/C compressor implausible signal

Freeze Frame:

Current: 0.600 A

Current: 0.000 A

Voltage: 14.50 V

Compressor shut off code was 0.

Any insight would be much appreciated. its supposed to be almost 100 degrees today, so I took the motorcycle to work instead.

1969 Sportster throttle setup recommendations

Just looking for recommendations on a throttle setup. I have a single cable, internal throttle setup right now and I'm trying to fit up an S&S Super E. I like the idea of keeping an internal cable for the clean look, but like the dual cable for safety reasons. I feel like this is probably a dumb post, but should I just bite the bullet and get the push/pull conversion kit?

05 trans cooler line rotted

I need help finding the lower trans cooler hose that comes out of the radiator. 2005 passat sedan, 4 motion with the 1.8T auto. Mine rotted out and is pushing trans fluid everywhere. I have it parked until I can fix it. I can find the upper one but not the lower.

TIA

Hello everyone,

I have a 1968 Coupe that I am installing the big block radiator in made by cold case, and the outlet is hitting the strut rod brace. I have the saddle mounts and saddle mount isolators. any tips on what to do here? I don't think I can even slip the hose on since its so close.

FWIW, I think the strut rod braces have been replaced before and were done poorly, so its possible that is causing problems.

Thanks in advance.
