Title: Exhaust indicator light MK V GTI
Post by: Chowgar1 on 08 November 2010, 09:14
Exhaust indicator light came on at the weekend guys. Can anyone offer some advice. I've another thread running looking for a decent VW indi garage as it will need to be sorted however just wondering if anyone can advise what the usual causes are and if I shouldn't be using the car at all till sorted. 

Cheers
Tim

Just a light on but no running issues? to be honest with a mk5 its best to take a trip to a local dealer/garage for a plug in diagnostic could be all manner of things ranging from a lambda fault to a software update most will either plug in for free or charge a small labour fee unless further diagnostic is required, at least this should point you towards the fault.
