@Owner bentley ,
Please give a full scan, and not with a generic scanner, either Ross-Tech VCDS, or VAS 5054 ODIS, also, give your location, and some detailed history of the vehicle and how this all started, your comments of hey dude, hi dear, hey bro, do not give any details at all, and then comments that may of had some information or history, you deleted, why ?

I can only help if you supply detailed accurate information, we are not here to guess.

Sincerely.
Johnny

If you don't have or want to buy a Ross Tech you can get an Autel either AP-200 or HT-200 I have several for my cars and it'll scan all modules on the Bentley

I didn't say it was equivalent but I've used it on my Bentley and I'm able to scan all modules, do stuff like calibrate the EPB, etc. I paid 30 bucks for it so I can't complain

AP 200 or HT 200 they're the same I have several

You get one brand included and can pay for additional brands

Since it's $25/year for the additional brand and the device is $30-50 I just buy new devices for new brands

I have used mine to read codes on the Bentley on all systems, reset the parking brake after a brake job on the rear brakes, and do a proper ABS flush.

I doubt it can program like a Ross can but for the price it can't be beat

I have the white one

I think the red one is just a newer version

The one you linked should work. Just make sure you buy one new so you can set the OEM that is included with it. They used to let you change it if you bought a used one but not anymore

@Owner bentley ,
You don't have a scan, so not much help, as it appears that you have been involved with this for over a year, and may have other issues causing issues by state of disassembly I assume...

As to your shifting issue, and the triptronic, I take it that it doesn't work by either the paddles, or the shift lever, SO, being that you replaced the dust cover on the shifter lever mechanism, did you take care to be sure that the magnets were in place, and in their proper position, or that no damage occurred to the printed board and the sensors on it ?











As to you brake pedal being hard at low RPM, that certainly sounds like a vacuum leak, have the vacuum leaks that are very common on your 2004 be dealt with, being the lines over the transmission, up the back of the engine, and all lines in the steering rack area along with the two lines up to the rear of the intake manifold, how is the vacuum pump, and or it's fuse ?

As to the engine stalling, that also goes with a vacuum leak, does the engine idle smoothly, or is it shaky and mis-firing ?

The overheating at slow speed is odd, are you saying that the fans are operating properly at all times, being that you replaced the water pump, has the system been bled to get all air pockets out ?

What is "GCC" ?

What is a "normal phone one" ?

Johnny

When I replaced my shift dust cover the magnet was seated improperly and there was no indication of the gear selector position. It should be seated firmly and flat. Also be sure that when installing the piece, the ribbed side is down/magnets facing up. A picture of the mis-seated magnet in my old post is here:

the vacuum pump is new but I don’t know about the fuse I’ll check for it later , the magnets for the gear stick are available and I saw your posts about it and I return the old one also the same problem , what I mean about normal phone scanner I mean Bluetooth obd and WiFi for iPhone not Vcds or rostech , but about the fans , it work auto on any temp like any car if high is high of normal normal , but I’ll try to take the air out from the system but opening the tank cap , and for the vacuum I’ll ready I have vacuum leak sound rear the engine it’s fixed from before allready by fuel hoses down behind the rack ,
and the brake is hard when it’s at low rpm when I give rpm it’s charged air and brake go’s perfect for moments.
