    I have an 05 VW Golf. Suddenly on Saturday the Emission Control/Engine Management Light & and Power Steering System lights came on. I've tried a restart, and a visual inspection of the engine. All appears fine. The car is driving fine. No unusual noises or vibrations - any ideas?

    You will need to get the car scanned to see what fault codes have been stored in the ECU.

    Where are you based ?

    If you were in Kildare i'd offer to scan it for you, maybe there will be another member closer to you who can scan it.

    It's the attached light, on their website they call it the: EMISSIONS CONTROL LIGHT

    OSI - No, car is running fine, sounds fine and feels fine.
    The lights came on Saturday lunch time. I restarted in the evening, lights still there. And still there this morning.

    Thank you everyone for your help. I got in to the car last night, pressed the accelerator once before starting and hey presto! The lights are gone!
