Hi and advice please
« on: 13 May 2011, 11:25 »
Hi all,

New member who has recently bought my first ever golf even vw in fact. But not sure what version it is? it is an golf gt tdi 170 mark?

Also as i have never owned a vw before i thought it was about time as you always hear they hold there value and there reliable.

Well 1 month in and it's in the garage as the dpf has triggered limp mode and now the engine management light as well as the glow plug light are also on.

Apparently so far according to vw it is because the dpf didn't regenerate causing other em lights to appear.

I think dpf is going to be a growing issue for cars fitted with them.


Regards
Peter
