s2000king Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Sounds like it could be either the coolant temperature sensor or the lambda sensor starting to show signs of failing, the warning lights will only come on in the event of complete failure of the sensors. The best way to check is on either vagcom or a good quality diagnostics tool at a local garage or something.Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s2000king Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Yeh, sounds more like the coolant temp, but as i say the light work come on untill its completely failed, so still worth checking.It's a common problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
