In this week video we have a VW Eos Roof not working fault code 02805 system malfuction , at first I didn't think I would be able to get it back working because it's such a complex system with different mechanism and sensor but i hope you guys enjoy the video.
I will be uploading videos here regularly sharing my experiences working around cars on my driveway, exposing issues, auto repair, auto electric, oil changes, services, projects and more...
Cheers 👍

I can confirm the problem. The trunk lock is engineered bad ... because water will store in the plug and the pins & plug will rust extremly. The lower pin will loosen/break and this causes malefunction to the roof opening process. Replace the old trunk lock and the problem is solved 👍 Did it today ... it works fine now 🥰 You probably need VCDS adapter/software to get the roof in a logical correct place to open/close it first. Then erase 02805 and everything is fine!

Thank you so much, I managed to replace the boot lock after your brilliant video. Now the boot shuts and the roof works. I have, in the past, paid vast amounts to have this very same problem fixed so I am delighted. Thank you. Polly (frustrated EOS owner).

Very informative and easy to follow. I am now starting to believe that I can give my 2008 another lease of life where local mechanics were reluctant to go, hopefully without the cost far exceeding its write off value. I will definitely not have my car written off when I can now accept that a good mechanic can probably resolve my minor roof/ boot issues. Thank you for restoring my faith in my pride and joy. 25:01

Hello, do you have any idea how to change the strings to the sunroof? the electro-motor itself is still working, I already ordered the metal strings/cable to open/close the sunroof, but can't find any instruction online how to replace the cable without damaging the hardtop. I don't know how and where to start. Without repairing/replacing the cable to the sunroof, the hardtop does not open! Would be greatful for any help

The hydraulics is sounding unnaturally loud and whiney. This usually means that there is air in the hydraulic system which will give weak spongy action. Air will get into a system through eroded seals or hoses on the suction side of the pump. Replace the inlet seals, and inspect/replace the connectors, hoses as needed.

Hi love your video we fix some issues with our Eos but our rear passenger window is going on reverse so that's given us a message saying our passenger door is open. But is a two door. Any videos on this issue that can help us. Please we got this car for my daughter that she just turn 17yrs.

Hi do you know how to fix the roof on my eos that won't work because of the motor in the trunk that I thought wasn't working, but when we checked it it shows signs of life but doesn't want to close the trunk all the way and the car doesn't know that the trunk is closed or open the fuses are fine everything is roughly inspected basic do you know what it could be. In the trunk, the lights also do not recognize whether the trunk is open or not, and now I use the trunk as in the most common golf 5, because the soft closing will not work, and therefore the roof does not know whether the trunk is open or closed

I had similar problem with it .... procedure started by vcds then roof was started opening and I could not stop it so at the first rear both windows gone then trunk lid closed to the middle section of the roof ..... really mess... when procedure was started I could not stop it even after take a key out from ignition switch there was a roof ECU problem so really need to pay attention what can happen !!!!!

the corrosion to the lock is from the boot light, occasionally boot light cracks and start licking to inside. sos... after the lock mechanism, water destroys the roof pump.

the black cable end has poped out off its holder pull the cable and put it back in as a fast fix to keep it in place use a cable tie and it will work. the cable probably has some friction in side it use a few drops of oil to loosen it up. for the flaps it can be that they hang under the cloth they are atached to a piece of black wire this can be to long because off streching overtime. the latch in the booth is not working and does not sense the lid is up. replace the sensor.
