The G codes are the component numbers in the OEM Repair Manuals. If you want to solve these problems, you should get online access to the repair information. It is available on the erWin web site: http://erwin.seat.com/

Now let's address your flip attitude about my last post. If you took the time to read it, you would see it was addressed to DPJ. I knew you had the information since he copied directly from our web site without posting an acknowledgement of where he got the information. I was not posting for your benefit.

Hey DPJ, it would be proper to acknowledge the source of all that good information. You found it on the Ross-Tech Wiki:http://wiki.ross-tech.com/index.php/17550/P1142/004418

Would be nice for Ross-Tech to acknowledge all the good publicity and no doubt halo effect custom that comes your way too from being a welcomed contributor on SCN. [B)]

Please give up with the nit-picking, it's showing you up in a negative light, especially when your provided with a dedicated section for your product. ;)

Anyway, after all these cross words/crossed wires (?!?) - just get it sorted and tell us what the root cause of this was - my wife's 2003MY Polo 1.4 16V SE (BBY engine) 63,000 miles, has just chucked out that code last night!

Well all I did was to clear the logged fault - and today it has been used over two 12 miles journeys and the fault has not returned. It will need to return before I will do any more investigation - as I'm sure it will some time later! I take it that your problem started out as the odd logging of this fault before it became a solid fault?

the bloke at the seat dealer said he needs more time on it

That's not good as TIME = MONEY! Hope I'm wrong but I'd expect a Seat dealer to check it out quickly and work out a root cause and fix it, that is what they are trained to do and that is why we pay big bucks to save time and money by using their knowledge, ie so that they get straight to the root cause of the problem.
