2 visits back to dealer in 5 months

Autohold sticking? Do you mean it is reluctant to release when starting a reverse maneuvre or occasionally creeping forward in traffic? mine does this too. Apparently there is a setting to adjust its level of grip - I will be putting mine to "weak" if I can get a lend of VCDS.

Window not working at all, or the 2 stage "one touch" open/close not operating? If it is the latter then the car has probably experienced an obstruction and defaulted to "safe" mode. The car can relearn the one touch operation - it's in the manual how (although a VW technician should know how).

Tyre pressure sensor giving a false low? If so then pretty much everyone has had that - the system is very sensitive to the slightest changes, perhaps ambient temp changes overnight or after standing a few hours. Quick reset and it is gone.

O2 sensor iffy - OK that is a warranty job you cannot resolve yourself.

I have the window one-shot problem too.

If you wind it up, then hold the up button for a few seconds after it is fully closed, it resets.... until the next time it forgets it.

Dealer says they can't replicate it... can't be bothered more likely.

I had this happen once, and reset as per the manual - never happened again. Unless it is happening frequently after resetting, I wouldn't chase the dealer personally.

Happens every few days for me!

Problem, reset window, works couple of days.... then problem.

Perhaps your rubber window frame guides are a bit off, causing frictional overload as if a kid has stuck their arm in while you are rolling them up?

Could be that, its definitely really annoying and to be told that they "can't reproduce the problem" is crap because all they do is to reset the window as I described earlier and go "see we've fixed it, you must have had a baby's arm in it or something"

Thanks for the tips guys, got my car back today.

As predicted the O2 sensor was replaced and the light went out easy I guess to fix compared to intermittent faults - the other issues Windows, Auto Hold & Tyre Pressure issues couldnt be replicated so to the dealership they don't exist so I have agreed to film them on my phone when they happen which they will - can't wait for the loan car!!

I'm glad it's a lease car and haven't invested personally in this car I only have 18 months togo then I'll be taking a break from Volks - maybe! But the Rline Passat on 19's does look nice, fickle!!!!
