    Lots of fault codes

    Is the light still on? DTC - diagnostic trouble code, it may take a while as it could be related to engine running, cooling, heating etc. You need to run the car now and see what pops up. Link to VAG codes here http://passat.pavsweb.com/docs/Diagnostic%20Trouble%20Codes%20(DTC)%20...pdf

    Fridge freezer doesn't aligned with cupboard doors

    Could you use a jigsaw to cut a hole in the bottom panel? Keep just inside the edges and that may allow you to get enough material out to remove the panel.

    Underground springwater storage tank query.
