help please.. Gearbox leak/ 'Check' warning light

Post by R.I.T.B »

last week my service light(by the mileage) came on flashing with the word 'oil' aswell. then next time i started the car they was both off.

now today the 'check' light came on, i've just done an oil change as a precaution but the light is still on?

i no the best thing to do is get it on a vagcom, can somebody post a link as to where is best to buy it from?

then, more worryingly - whilst i had the engine bay undertray off i noticed the gearbox had loads of oil over it, what is this likely to be? broken gasket/seal? at the moment the gearbox is fine, no noises/grinding etc. will the vagcom tell me this... i'll add pic's of the gearbox casing later

you can buy the cable for vagcom off eBay, doesn't cost alot.

Software is easily obtained from the net :wink:
