Warning lights!
« on: 24 April 2018, 22:21 »
Evening all, got into the car tonight, started up & yellow warnings lights appear. These were, yellow triangle, engine symbol, EPC & a message saying start/stop not available & keep below 4,000 revs. Limp mode kicked in too! Only drove the car on Sunday! Any ideas you clever lot?

I’m also West Sussex, where are you? I could run an OBDEleven fault scan on it. Might be able to spot an issue, or if not clear the faults to determine if it’s a one off.

Otherwise, head for the dealer.

Battery is fine, it starts well! Bognor Regis. That's a kind offer, thank you. I'll see what the morning brings & pop it in to VW if it's not magically righted itself! Stop/start is PITA!

I’m near Crawley so not that close if you are driving in limo mode!
