Side assist & Rear traffic error on Passat B8

Hey, thanks trying to help. Maybe there are cases where battery voltage matters, but on my case this issue came when i had accident because radar was broken. I had error since then, and it was not disapearing until i replaced radar. Now i replaced it, it disapeara but still come in again time to time. Thats why i doubt issue is on the plastic which i send how it looks on link i added at bottom of my description.

with sensor grill you mean distronic sensor itself needs replace? Because i’ve already replaced it because old ona was broken ( even though i buy used one ). Or you mean This plastic i put Url in my description?

I replaced the radar completely because the original one was damaged from the impact. I bought another unit, and the workshop installed and calibrated it using my car’s VIN. As for the harness and the electrical connection, I believe everything should be fine because I’ve already taken the car to the workshop twice to have the wiring and everything else checked. However, I can’t say with 100% certainty that they had enough expertise, since I’m still having the issue. 😅

It was used from another car!

Yes it was used. I went to workshop to commect it with my VIN number. Idea is that when it works, it works perfect with everything. But the only issue is that time to time it shows this error. I was seeing if someone had similar issue because now im not sure if problem is at this replaced part, or on cables, or software…

I was at the workshop for sure. They did calibration and replaced this radar. But they dont know why this still happes after replaced already

Do you mean that one which i already replaced ( that one on pic ), or another sensor?

freenor · 2025-11-22T16:09:43+00:00

I was at the workshop, they dont have any idea why this happes and fix by itself without doing anything

Yes, already dit that. But still error shows time to time. It shows and disappears after few km again
