Title: MK6 gti airbag problem
Post by: valle on September 18, 2013, 05:21:55 pm
So guys i need a bit of help.
I just bought mk6 gti dsg , mfsw steering wheel. Aslo bought CH module. mk6 to mk5 system.
But i have problems with airbag. I was at dealer that sells airbags. We tryed 2 different models and no one fits.( it fits in but it stays still, no room for horn ) Where could be the problem.
How many different airbags are out there for mk6  wheel...
I gues that even airbags with or widout mfsw are not the same???

This is part nubmer from my wheel:

demon666, i don't think that's the right shape , that i am looking for....

I tried 2 airbags yesterday, they didn't had any part number on it. But is it possible that is right shape, but that doesn't fit...if u push it in, the back 2 ''locks'' moved. And if u want to push the horn , the air bag doesn't move.

That doesn't list multi function operation operation?
Title: Re: MK6 gti airbag problem
Post by: Eddie-NL on September 18, 2013, 08:48:06 pm
you must use the multifunction version

if you don't it will be difficult to get the horn to work
Title: Re: MK6 gti airbag problem

None multi function!
Title: Re: MK6 gti airbag problem
Post by: valle on September 18, 2013, 08:56:06 pm
so there is different shape of the airbag of the multifunction and non one.
Title: Re: MK6 gti airbag problem
Post by: doylebros on September 18, 2013, 09:01:15 pm
There must be a difference could be those lugs but see if Ed confirms it but I say you need 5K0 880 201 AC 81U

There are two listed on EBay under 5K0 880 201

5K0 880 201 F  is  multi functional dated 04/09 - 05/11
Title: Re: MK6 gti airbag problem
Post by: valle on September 18, 2013, 09:02:27 pm
Yes , with D and F...would this work ?

There are two listed on EBay under 5K0 880 201

The size is slightly bigger on a Non Multifunction, you can use them but a lot more pressure is required for the horn to work
Title: Re: MK6 gti airbag problem
Post by: valle on September 18, 2013, 09:08:06 pm
so i need part number:
5k0 880 201 AC   or
5k0 880 201 N     or
5k0 880 201 L

or ....?

has to be multifunction

Title: Re: MK6 gti airbag problem

F will work
Title: Re: MK6 gti airbag problem
Post by: valle on September 18, 2013, 09:14:50 pm
Eddy, can u confirm that?
It's quite expensive , just to try ... :stupid:
Title: Re: MK6 gti airbag problem
Post by: doylebros on September 18, 2013, 09:18:21 pm
The correct one on EBay is F since its multi functional but  D will work with hassle for horn operation.

Trouble multi functional  (free horn operation issue)

Finish in

F,G,L,N  or AC
Title: Re: MK6 gti airbag problem
Post by: Eddie-NL on September 18, 2013, 09:18:45 pm
If you have a choice, buy the proper one

Title: Re: MK6 gti airbag problem
Post by: valle on September 18, 2013, 09:22:04 pm
Ok, let's say , money doesn't metter.
The F is the correct one, will fit , multifunction will work, and horn will work correct????
I will buy the one , that has all that.
Title: Re: MK6 gti airbag problem
Post by: doylebros on September 18, 2013, 09:25:00 pm
