New coolant expansion bottle required (it's complete with the level sensor) About £14 from VW.
It's the level Sensor that corrodes and fails intermittently. Only ever used to get this when the weather was cold. Now I've replaced the bottle, even in these very cold temperatures we've had recently (down to -11°C here), it's never come on again.
A pretty common problem and an easy and cheap fix (only takes about ½ hour)
Cheers
