But if anyone with an 05 Manuel Mk5 gti could do me a massive favor and take a pic of there fuses boxes so I,can see where they all go would be a massive help and so appreciate d car is in limp mode and has fault codes I'm sure a fuse or two in wrong place many thanks if anyone can do this

Will send a PayPal gift if wanted for efforts

My next move would be to look on this list

http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,120.0.html

See if anyone is near you and get the vehicle scanned and the DTCs cancelled then see what reappears!

No idea on that but you'll get so much more info from VCDS. Scan!

Never seen anyone else where it cost more than a fuse, just clear the DTCs and that may be it :wink:
