so i was just getting into my car before to come home from a friends and the yellow check engine light went on..... i have a 2.0t tsi engine with barely anything done to the car .... any ideas wtf this is about ... i have like 7500miles after ayear

Kind of difficult to give insight given the details you've provided. Go to autozone or advanced auto or napa and have them scan the code. Then look the code up. That will give you a good idea. Or you could just take it to the dealership? Maybe if you had a generic code reader, or vag com you could diagnose and fix the problem yourself.

im ganna ask my friend to look at it tomorrow but its not ganna like blow up or anything

I would hope not, but sometimes when vw's run low on turn signal fluid things get a little crazy.

newCarKid · May 26, 2009

ill just sue and then own 25percent of the company

RSMark5 · May 26, 2009

YES! do that. I'd just settle for a dealership or 2. Including all inventory currently on their lots free and clear.

yea man, it's gonna blow up

Uhg...when will people learn that we are not omnipotent gods and read your ECU from across the internets. You give no details and expect an answer...*sigh*

Anyways, if its just a solid CEL, dont worry about it and get it scanned at your earliest convenience. If the shit REALLY hit the fan, it would be blinking and/or red and/or your MFD would be yelling at you.

hey I know your trying to help but .... I'm sorry I can't give any more details ... I gave you everything I could give you in regards to info ... I was just worried about my dub

Step 1: Get code scanned
Step 2: Post Fault code and wait for responses

/end thread until this time.

As mentioned before, if you feel nothing weird with the car it was either a false alarm or the fault is not so bad (yet). Get it scanned and be at peace. With your mileage, it is very possible that it can be either an ignition coil or an O2 sensor.
