Any recommendations for the best app to use with OBDII to allow programming?

Takes 2 mins to recode with this. https://obdeleven.com

Is the basic £59.99 one ok for this and most jobs eg resetting airbags after seat removal please,

I think you need the PRO version to do "coding". The basic version uses apps, which you buy credits to use. It is also subscription based now too, so be aware of that.

Just noticed that the inner rear light is leaking again.
Ordered some rubber foam gasket to replace the worn seal.

 Been a while since my last involvement, life has been busy and just not had the energy or excitement for my car. But after a refresh of my mental health and work life balance adjustment I feel back on it.
Had car 7yrs now since new, decided to keep it but spend some money on it.
I've just had it in bodyshop for couple of car park dings and full machine polish, it looks great! Pics to follow when I've detailed it a bit.
Put new front discs and pads on today. Cleaned and sealed the calipers and had new Continental contact sport 7's fitted to new Revo alloys.



Collected and being driven....... Gti PP 5dr DSG Tornado red, tints and Brescia's.

Removed the silica bag and coded out Start/Stop using ODBEleven. Only cost 10 credits. Happy boy now.
