  • Engine Light????

    Hey guys,

    I was on my way to work this morning and my engine light went off???? I haven't noticed any power loss and supposedly my coils were changed out in June. I still have my CAI in do you think that has caused the problem? Any advise will help.

    Thanks!

    hookup a vag-com and you'll know your problem. come to the meet tomorrow and i can tell you (if you have a membership ) i believe that is the requirement.

            Sorry if this is a dumb question but, if I do hook up that vag-com what exactly does it do? I would still require bringing the car to the dealership to have my computer reset?

                The VAG-COM is the same diagnostic computer (more-or-less) that the dealership has. It allows you to read and diagnose any problem, find the reason for any indicator light, and reset the computer or clear codes. It does all kinds of other stuff too.
