Golf mk7 / Re: Start/stop, Front assist and ACC errors

First thing to do would be to get it scanned for codes.

Too many things could cause these lights and until you get it read for fault codes its pure guesswork as to what could be causing the issues your experiencing.

Golf mk7 / Start/stop, Front assist and ACC errors
« Last post by neilwilllz on 31 March 2026, 19:33 »
Hi Guys,

First post here. Got a mk7 golf 2.0 bluemotion. Recently, on the odd occasion when starting the car it struggles a little to fire up. But the majority of times it is fine. However, when I put my foot down and accelerate quickly it gets a certain point and loses power and shows some of the Start/stop, Front assist and ACC errors.

I can turn the ignition off and start the engine again and they all disappear.

Any ideas what it can be, doesn't look like there is anything wrong with sensor on the front. Would battery issues be a factor?

Thanks
Neil

Hi there, and thanks for your suggestion. Don't get me wrong, I'm not some kind of "boy racer", but I think it's advisable to know your car's capabilities. First time I did it I nearly shat myself, second time I did it I did sh!t myself :grin: :grin: :grin:

Ahh, lovely! Thanks SR, that could be just the ticket. Compressed size 1.5cm so I’ll go measure the gap shortly to see if it’ll squeeze through  :smiley:

I think you can add/remove what options you can choose from in the central display. I use the large central rev counter display and you can do it with the two circular additional displays.

I googled - 'how to modify the main display on a 2025 golf' which brought up some AI advice and links to youtube tutorials. Hopefully you can get some answers there.
