3 day old Golf R broken down
Discussion
It had done a short journey, sedately drive, parked up for an hour then the faults appeared. Then they disappeared and were replaced by an airbag error, then just parking break error, then they all came back again.... This was after turning the engine off and restarting. The AA man read the car for fault codes and couldn't find any... Lucky I live 5 miles from the vw garage.
Sound like a software issue to me too.
That said .......
Did you have ur I phone in the glove box? ?
I have known one case when the gateway module thats behind the glove box suffered from some sort of Electromagnetic interference, due to the I phone in the glove box been very close to the module.
Fix was to rap uber expensive, space age, gold foil arround the gateway.

Nothing in the glove box, they were looking at the car this afternoon but I've heard nothing back, hopefully I'll have some news tomorrow.... The service guy did say... Oh registered on the 5th go August, that's a new one. They haven't had a MK7 R in yet, I hope they can diagnose and fix quickly.
Doesn't seem very good really does it !
I wonder if they do better on the electronics for the Audi driverless car car VAG is foisting onto our stupid government . I can see many piles of scrap with VAG cars in the middle of the pile!
But I dare say VAG and PSA will have brown enveloped thier way into the European Parliament again to get this through , just like they did with the clean derv con that was taken hook line and sinker . Surprise surprise derv is nasty toxic stuff.
