So after parking my gti up yesterday and returning a few hours later, the windows had gone halfway down on their own. Hmmm strange but ok, maybe i had lent on the keys at some point.
So i unlocked the car and puts the keys in the ign, dash lights come up but wont crank. Everything else works fine.
Rac came out and did a battery check and said its all fine, all fuses ok and all earths etc ok. He seems to think its the starter motor.
So my question is, can i just buy a new one from euro or does it need to be coded in etc?
Are the starters for the DSGs different?
I have not got vagcom or equivalent to be able to scan.
Any help would be great as i am a total newb to vags.
