    Which car after S3?

    wiper prob's. please help.

    Eventualy traced it down to the bonnet micro switch. as this was not quite operating fully, the system was thinking that the bonnet was open and thus not operating the wipers. Not the most obvious source.

    Idling fun Now DPF light is ON??

    that was one of the reasons that I got rid of my golf 170tdi. That f***ing DPF filter was the bane of my life. the first few times that the light came on was ok as it just required running the car at over 2000rpm for around 7-9 miles then it would go out. But then a couple of times the light...

My last car, a mk5 golf GT170 tdi. Was shocking in the snow on standard tyres, even worse than the mk4 before it...
