    Folks

    The yellow engine warning light is after coming on in my 07 1.4 TSi Golf. Booklet describes it as an exhaust emissions warning and bring the car to a workshop. Car still drives fine and no visible smoke from exhaust or anything i.e. there's nothing wrong except for the light.

    I can't get the car serviced this week as I'm down the country with work.

    Last service (the second) was @ 35k km / 12 months ago. Mileage now stands @ 54k km.

    I'm worried that I'll damage the car by driving it but there appears to be nothing wrong - am I worrying over nothing except a random warning light???.....

    Cheers
    Tom

    WOW that is some service interval.

    Bring it to a local garage and see what they say, might cost a few Euro, but it might be safer.
