Exhaust system warning light....2 days before remap
« on: March 31, 2012, 05:45:54 pm »

Gutted, the Exhaust system warning light has come up this afternoon, (lit, not flashing) and I'm supposed to be getting my Stage 1 remap on monday  :sick: :sad1:

Can anyone advise me what to do? Should I contact the VAGCOM person on the list for my area to see if they wouldn't mind checking it out?

Does anyone know what the most common problem is for a mk5 K03 GTi?

Any help or advice would be very gratefully received.

Ian.

Tim will be using vagcom on the car anyway, checking diagnostics prior to a remap is always reccomended. If car is running ok it will be something simple.

Great, thanks Dave, hopefully all can still go ahead as planned.  :happy2:
