« on: August 25, 2011, 06:51:49 pm »
I'm having problems with my golf gti mk5 I'm sure it knows I'm selling it :stupid:
First problem rear windows won't wind down 5 door so I checked the fuse which is fine,the heated seats are not working either and the electric seat lumbars are not working fuses are fine
I'm at my ends wit how can rectify these problems without getting ripped off at the steelers
I'm having to turn people away when I really need to sell the car  :ashamed:

Have you had it scanned for any fault codes?
Might be a relay rather than a fuse  :happy2:

Hope you get it sorted

Where are you based? Check the VCDS register & see if anybody is close enough to scan for codes for beer money  :happy2:
