Having issues on hot days with seat belt warning going off even with seat belt connected.

Must be a micro-switch in the buckle playing up? Just had a quick look on VCDS adaptions to disable it - Only options were variant 1 to Variant 4. It was on 2 changed it to 3 as 1 and 4 had an error message.

If that hasn't solved it I have seen some You Tube vids about changing the coding. Coding scares me , don't want to f##k it up.

Agree with you on coding; I wouldn't want to mess with that for fear of triggering airbag light etc.

10 second ebay glance suggests they're 10 a penny. I'd spend the 20 quid from somewhere that will accept a return and try swapping it over. Other than a couple of quid in return postage there's no risk if it turns out to be something else.

Sorted it by using OBDelelven, the long coding is easier to understand on there than VCDS - literally an on/off menu!
