Smalesy:
Hello Everyone!

Got myself a BW SuperScan VS450 VAG CAN OBDII Scantool Car Code Reader from Amazon the other day to see what my engine management light was for and these came up.







Does anyone know what I would need to do to fix these? or is it a job for a VW specialist to do? If so will it be expensive?

Sorry for all the questions, any help would be appreciated!

That's odd that all the faults lie in the electrics along the exhaust - gone over any bad potholes lately?  :grin:

Try clearing the faults and seeing if they come back - then an auto electrician to check the connections to the sensors, but may mean exhaust cat issues I s'pose?.....

Smalesy:
My Saxo before this was lowered quite a lot so I always avoided pot holes, still dodging them in this haha :grin:

I cleared them but they all came up about 120ish miles later, cleared them again after that and they came back again... Didn't make a note of the mileage driven the second time though.

The car feels as if it's lacking in power, might put some Redex through it and see if it makes a difference?

mrvertigo73:
You're losing power too? Hmm... don't know if Redex will do anything worthwhile. From the faults it looks like an electrical problem - could be regulator / battery? I would take it along to a reputable specialist garage and ask them to take a look at that and the exhaust itself.
