Vag-com battery codes / induction kit

[lewis1984]

Hi guys, I just got myself an x reg leon cupra. Very impressed. Loads of fun.
I did a vagcom check on it and came up with a couple of codes- (00532 supply voltage b+) and (00668 battery power voltage supply terminal 30) I then realised i have no idea what that means lol. Has anyone seen these b4?
Also I have a miltec cat back, an audi s3 dv and stage 1 remap. Which all came with the car However it still has the standard air filter. Iv read a lot of contradicting threads about induction kits and was wondering if anyone has a similar spec to mine with a kit 2 and if there happy with it. Thanx guys.
sorry bout the massive essay

Hello and welcome to the site, i have had similar codes after disconnecting the battery, if you put the code and vagcom into google it should tell you the problems air filter wise i have the neuspeed air filter with the surround which is good a lot of others go with the smoothed oe air box and a performance panel filter really its what ever floats your boat, i would keep away from the ones that go down to behind the bumper as they sit very low and if you go through water bad thing could happen.

Oh also there seems to be an extra pipe which leads into the standard air box. not sure what it is. If I was to get an induction kit, what should i do with the pipe?

Its for the secondary air pump its for imissions, when you start the car in the morning it pumps warm air into the air box ( or sucks it from the air box something like that,, you can put asmall air filter on it or most air filter kits come with a fixing for it.

what's the extra pipe into the standard airbox

I have an LC and I was just wondering what the extra pipe into the standard airbox is/does?
And also what to do with it when upgrading to an induction kit. Im sure its obvious but im new to leon and the only car ive previously modified was a classic mini lol. And there about a basic as a baked potatoe.

It's the air intake for the Secondary Air Pump.

Sucks it from the airbox to blow into the exhaust manifold.

You dont happen to know the size of that breather, as they come in every size possible. i would't want to get the wrong 1 due to crap measurments
