Title: B116229 fault
Post by: 2007GTI on 08 January 2026, 16:56

Scanned my car today with OBDEleven and got this fault B116229.

Looking on Google seems like a common issue and theres there a repair kit you can buy to fix it, without having to replace whole selector.

Just wondered if anyone has ever done it?

Pretty sure there's a recent Volkswizard video where he replaces the faulty part on one of his cars a 2015 Octavia VRS.
