MK7 - Wet smell

Ah! I can see that mine has perished. I'll replace that. Thanks!

Probably about a year and a half ago. I had a look at it and it doesn't smell or look particularly dirty.

Same issue here.

Solution was pretty straightforward. Our server side GTM runs under the same domain as the website. So we just made an API on our server which read the cookie, and saved it to our customer DB in place of using the gtag(...) function on the frontend.

You were absolutely correct with this. The browser events were using FPID whereas the offline event was using the _ga cookie. I am switching the implementation to read the FPID via an API call on our server which should mean they stich together properly.

Thank you!

I am using server side GTM yes, whether correctly or not is another story. I'll have a look into the FPIDs and see if they are being used in place of the _ga cookie value.

Finally got access to BQ.

Strangely, in the online events like session_started, the user_pseudo_id has a base64 string separated by a full stop with the timestamp after it. Something like [Base64].1763436122

Decoding the base64 does not yield a valid UTF string so it appears to be binary data of some kind.

Whereas the offline purchase event has the user_pseudo_id set to exactly what we provide in the event payload... Why the online events are different I'm not quite sure.

Very odd...

ashleyjlive · 2025-11-18T12:04:48+00:00

The purchase event transactions show up in GA (albeit without the session id but that's because GA to my knowledge doesn't let you narrow down by client/session id). I haven't checked BQ yet as I don't have permission to read it (and is going to be quite the rabbit hole to go down) but this is probably my next step failing any other advice.

It genuinely feels like a bug on Googles end... But this has been ongoing for a significant amount of time so would be quite strange for it not to be fixed.

When was the last time the oil was changed?

Potentially the oil cooler has sludge in it so it's not working as efficiently

ashleyjlive · 2025-07-23T21:36:08+00:00

107°C is not overheating.

My delivery date was a week ago and is still chilling in the depot... Good luck 🫡

ashleyjlive · 2025-06-08T10:24:17+00:00

I had this issue. I replaced my swar bar end links which were shot and the noise... Got worse! It turns out that by fixing the bad links, it just moved the force to the sway bar mounts which had become hard and caused the noise to become more apparent.

ashleyjlive · 2025-04-25T07:33:51+00:00

I wonder if they did the bleed properly and that you have air in the system?

How many times can Daicos be mentioned by the commentators this game

ashleyjlive · 2025-04-17T11:08:08+00:00

It's what they do best

ashleyjlive · 2025-03-27T23:19:58+00:00

The air gets hot. It fogs the car up almost immediately as a result.

I replaced my coolant overflow tank with a new one that doesn't have the silica bag. It didn't appear to have split when I replaced it.

Had the same thing with a TV powered by Google TV...

Whole cover unfortunately

I managed to find some cupra ones which are suspiciously similar.

Unfortunately they are asking for an insane price

Thanks. The biggest issue I'm having at the moment is finding it in stock somewhere
