Seatbelt warning?
« on: 15 August 2011, 21:06 »
Hey all, right this has happened twice now.. after starting car up and belted up sometimes the belt warning noise and light flashes up still....? is this a problem or is there a procedure on putting seat belts on haha? I even take it out and re do it but still flashes for 30 secs atleast then finally goes off...

Cheers.

Got anything on the passenger seat?

Some have a warning for the passenger seat

Tis strange  :undecided:

You might have a faulty sensor?  Get someone with VAGCOM to investigate and or code out the warning :afro:

They all have a warning for both driver and passenger seats. You can code it out, although I would not recommend this because it could invalidate your insurance.

IIRC AlanD had this problem and it turned out to be a faulty sensor in either the seat or the seatbelt assembly.
Not low enough mk5
Not on the road enough mk3
