sorry to interupt this thread, but on the same topic, i have warning light appeared again, which is the orange one on the right centre looks like a little pump or engine, what could this be? just had the car serviced so everything is in check. cheers!

I checked a car on the weekend with this light on and one error was the secondary air thing and the other was a power related problem. However you'll have to get your car on vag-com to check what exactly is wrong.

Not all garages plug the diagnostic machine in at a service :( so having a service doesnt mean all is well!

ahhh, i see. strange, it was serviced over xmas when i was away, so it was driven a bit over xmas but not much. only just came on other day, probably 200 ish miles after service. same thing happened earlier on in year about a month after it was serviced, i left it a couple of days and it went off on its own! wasnt a huge service, plugs, filters, oil etc.
anyone near southampton have vag-com?

yeah it'll be brake fluid, might not look that low, but when accelerating or cornering it may think its lower than it is, just put a little bit in just to fill it back up, prob find you'll need some brake pads soon then, as i doubt you've got a leak
