Hey there car guys!
I have my Flying Spur 2015 for a year, and since i have it, on the dash is shown "Spoiler Malfunction"
Last month i got deep in it trying to fix this.
My 1st question is: Is there such spoiler on Flying Spur?
Because as far as i know only GT has it!
Disassembled whole trunk and there are obvious signs of rear damage.
I'm thinking that some module has been changed and now car is looking for spoiler!
I had it scanned with VCDS, Launch, ODIS. None of the modules report errors! All looks clean. But which module is responsible for the spoiler, and why car is looking for it ? Any advices would be appreciated!
I used ODIS and online connection. Checked everything, ODIS corrected 2 modules , car has no errors in modules, but fault is still on the dash. I'm out of ideas!
Can someone explain where should spoiler module be located? Maybe someone retrofitted such, and after rear damage it is .... not repaired correctly.
Another question, how does that soiler works? Does it use air?
Because at some point when accelerating, and while braking i hear a hissing air noise somewhere int he rear, but could that be the suspension or... does spoiler even use air?
Still nothing. i have disconnected multiple modules, checked fuses arrangement etc... spoiler fault is always there. Probably IC issue. no other ideas.
Hello @BlazeBG ,
Being that the Flying Spur does not have a electric rear spoiler, therefore no spoiler motor with it's built-in module, is it possible that your instrument cluster has been changed, or re-coded for some reason.
Can you post a screenshot of Ross-Tech VCDS scan of address 17 for the instrument cluster to show your coding ?
See the coding of a 2015 GT vs a 2015 Flying Spur.
Hello buddy! Thanks for assistance!
Well IC was recoded by ODIS to same value as you show for Flying Spur:
Is there any Auto-Scan of Flying Spur? Will be appreciated!
I want to compare all modules. However, for now i think IC is the issue.
Compared mine codings and modules with 2 other Bentleys Flying Spur, all looks good, no differences at all. I call another Bentley representative center and they told me, if i bring the car there, they will change modules on pin point principle and hope for the best. Which is, 🤑 moneyyy
A lot of money! I really cant believe what a silly issue causes so much trouble.
Better later than never!
I solved the issue by flashing instrument cluster FW with odis Engineering. Older version that was on the car, but works flawlessly!
After moths in official dealers shops and hours hedbanging in diagnostics screen...
