Hello 👋
« on: 09 June 2025, 08:32 »

Hi all very new here and a first time gti driver !

 I’ve had my car 1 year 2021 plate golf gti
Love my car , but on Friday car broke down and went into limp mode and will only run at 1500 rpm
Diagnostic machine is coming up with P210100 - throttle / engine speed control module , has anyone had any issues with this ? I’ll probably have to put car into vw but a bit scared on costs etc , unsure if this is something that could be fixed by an independent vw specialist ? Any advice greatly appreciated, I’m Glasgow based

Good morning and welcome,
Any decent VW Independent Specialist will have the correct and up to date diagnostic tools plus access to the VW service database (I know from personal experience the guys I use have) - I’d definitely give an Indy a go, save money and probably a better service.
