Erm yer should be fine mate, think I'll be alright to drive it?! I assume as it's only an Amber light it's not too serious as far as damaging the engine?! 

[rich83]

Should be fine... can you get to harrow for 9:30?

[scott84]

Hi mate,

Quick update....went out to move my car about an hour ago and the light is no longer staying on!!!!
Could it have been some crap petrol or something?!
Do u think it's still worth scanning it or would I be wasting your time?!

[Tfsi_Mike]

IMO, for piece of mind it's always a scan 

[scott84]

I don't mind either way.....never mind driving the gti !! Up to richwig83!! Just not as urgent without the light on if he's busy!!

The light is on a key cycle and will turn off though the problem will still be logged... Have it scanned mate

[scott84]

Yer I will. Unless richwig8 wants to re-arrange another time. But if I don't hear anything back I will be there for when we agreed.

Codes read by Rich today................
If anyone can make some sense of them it will be appreciated!

id say you have tumble flap failure.......

Not meaning to disagree with John (above) but I would have thought that if the tumble flap has failed, the cel would remain illuminated.
IMO you should try a basic setting adaptation of the Intake Manifold Runner with vcds (detailed below) then rescan for fault codes after a short drive.

Prerequisites:
Ignition ON
Engine OFF
System voltage at least 11.0 V.

[Select]
[01 - Engine]
[Basic Settings - 04]
Group 142
[Go!]
Activate the Basic Setting.
[ON/OFF/Next]
Wait until Field 4 shows "ADP. O.K.".
[Done, Go Back]
[Close Controller, Go Back - 06]
Switch Ignition OFF for at least 60 seconds

Scott... has the light come back on again? Your more than welcome to come around again and we can try that basic settings adaptation that BACILLUS suggests.

[Hedge]

It will probably clear following the Basic Settings but may well come back. These were problematic on the early BWA engines.

It wont clear without doing Basic Settings. 

[Nasir]

I just did this on my mates GTI, BWA engine on a 2006 car. Same faults, the light came on and off. I did the basic settings for him yesterday so we'll see if that helped. I did an output test on it as well, you could hear it operating. The car did feel quicker and more urgent, but it's all subjective.
