Evening men (and ladies if there are any) Just joined the forum so thought i would introduce myself. I have always dreamt of owning an XSI but in a moment of madness i am buying a GTI-6  It has a couple of things i need to sort which from what i have read here are common problems  I just hope its going to be a trouble free motor once sorted I see there are a few local members so may see you about sometime Cheers. Mick  |

Welcome along Airbag light is simple, as said, connectors under the seat play up. I just cut them and soldered them back together adding some other wire. Indicators ticking away will mean you just need a new stalk. I replaced mine off a low mileage pug, circa £5 and it was sorted Any plans for the car at all? |
