Agree with above but he might need to connect VCDS and make sure that "basic settings" are ON is steering assistance module. If this is not ON I don't think lights will clear them self? Only strange thing is the parking brake light? Again I will check with VCDS. Thanks for all the help it...

Re: Glow plug nightmare please help

The glowplug choices on B6 passats are very limited as explained on my site. You can only buy from dealer or NGK.

Re: Glow plug nightmare please help

There are 2 types of plugs for the 1.9 the older ones are only designed to stop on for 10-15 seconds. The newer more expensive ones can stop on for several minutes. Are you using the ...
