Hi everyone,
My 14 month old MK7 GTI had stood up for almost 2 months, now i seem to get Fault: Damper control and error bend lighting (AFS). They seem to go away once car has been parked in the sun, so I'm not sure if its due to the battery. taking the car to VW on Monday.I've checked online for similar cases doesn't look like its common thing.

Had the damper fault light twice on my old Scirocco, each time it meant some new controller. Happened on cold spells in consecutive winters. The dampers would not work with the light, it defaulted to comfort mode (judging by how soft the suspension was), fault would clear on a new ignition cycle once the car was warm.
Whey ya bugger! It's finally arrived after an 8 month wait....
