GTI Roberto Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Just bought myself a little 03 plate gti which I love!Having some intermittent problems with the lights. Somtimes when I turn the sidelights or headlights on, the passenger sidelights and rear lights do not come on. and sometimes i can switcht them off and on again, they come back on but then sometimes they dont!! have checked both fuses and they are fine. any common faults?I have also a problem with my indicators on the passenger side, where sometimes when the pull the indicator for the left hand turn signal, it will not work unless i pull it a little bit down (almost like the connection is not being made, but again like the other fault, it will sometimes work perfectly!!!Both faults could be linked??Any info would be greatly appreciated!Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pottster Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 not sure if the problems are linked but it sounds like you indicator stalks are getting worn out (I needed to replace mine),Probably worthwhile taking you stalks out and cleaning them and see how you get on, but you will possibly need replacements sooner or later.

GTI Roberto Posted April 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Think I will replace them as they are pretty inexpensive, does mean removing the airbag to do it though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTI Roberto Posted February 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 By the way.. I did this repair and it solved the issue, however I think the wiper stalk is now becoming faulty! typical! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
