Hi all,
Just picked up my 2005 GTI from a VW dealer up north. On the way back to London (great drive smile)noticed that the indicator in the mirror (passenger side) was not working.
Any ideas as to why? could it be a bulb and if so can it be changed?
Also when speaking to the dealer he said I could take it to my local dealership who would fix it under the terms of the 1 yr warranty, anyone know if this is likely or if they would refuse??

Thanks in advance!

They won't refuse as it's only been less than a day. Quite simple to change yourself anyway though. There's a guide but just let the dealer sort it.

Great thanks for that, taking it to the local dealership tomorrow so fingers crossed no hiccups. Just wasn't sure whether they would say that its not covered for some reason. Will update after my visit!

Yea these come as one unit, its not just a bulb you can change! Theyre Easy enough to fit yourself if you wanted and would only take 5 minutes! I could tell you how to do it if you needed it!
