Air Bag Light MK5 GTI DSG
« on: 08 March 2011, 14:47 »
Air bag light has popped up on my dash display the other morning, iv cleared the code on some Launch diagnostic equipment, but the light came back on the very next day?
It also seems to be using a little bit of engine oil probably half a litre once a month, it does short miles anyway but is that usual?   
  :huh:

you need to get car scanned by vagcom to get real fault code

the 2.0 TFSI does tend to use oil if given a bit of welly

so it's not sucking oil on vacuum

You need to find out if you have a fault code for the air bag light.
