I went to see a private seller for his Fabia 1.4 TDI tonight as a winter runabout and everything was fine apart from one thing. The EML light stays illuminated...the seller says the front electric windows were not working right and he took the fuse out 2/3 years ago and the light came on just after. The windows don’t work at all just now. He’s since had it go through a couple MOTs since then with no mention of EML on MOT history but I suspect he’s mates’ with the tester. He seemed nice and genuine though, in his late 60s/70s, owned since nearly new and lots of service history was present. It’s a 2007 / 57 plate.
Could this really be a reason for the EML? How could I go about solving the issue? Alternatively I’d there some vag software I could buy that would re set the EML light? I’m usually into older stuff but don’t mind buying the software if it means the Fabia would pass another Mot (due in 2 months, can’t see it failing on anything bar the EML) and we have other VAG cars in the family now (all been very reliable, touch wood)
thanks all
