Hi guys

As per title - I now have my traction control light on my dash after removing the SAI, N112 and N249 valves.

I must admit, while the car was in the air on axle stands, I turned my ignition on and steered the wheels of the car to full lock one way- then off with the ignition - the on with the ignition again and full lock the other way. This was only to gain access to the torx bolts the the wheel arch while fitting my CAI. Yes I forgot to Loosen the wheel nuts off before putting the car on axle stands lol.

I'm aware tht certain car manufacturers go through a bleeding process similar to what I've accidentally done when changing/repairing a steering rack - do you guys think I may have reset something to do with this or have I interfered with something else whilst removing the valves? Any input is greatly appreciated : )

Did you touch the throttle body??

Did you connect maf sensor back up again if you had airbox out as that puts tracs light on

Thought it was the throttle body?? have i got mixed up again?? lol

I had a friend with a faulty maf and it put tracs light on,

am guessing it wouldn't run with throttle body disconnected

Never touched the throttle body at all - which reminds me that I need to clean it out and when fitting the cold air intake I didn't have to unplug the MAF sensor so can't see that causing the issue either : (

Cheers for the input though guys : )

Just checked some old posts and the MAF can cause the TC light to come on, I recon you've disturbed it when fitting the CAI. Try unplugging it and plugging it back in and see if that helps m8

Yeah unplugged maf pops the traction light.

did you fit resisters in place of the Valves?

Raf/David - I'll try this tomorrow and report back. I'll also get the chance to whip the beast in VAGCOM too so fingers crossed that'll have it sorted : )

Gee - 330ohm 10W resistors fitted into all 3 connections. However I wasn't sure if resistors have to be put into the connectors a certain way I.e positive and negative - I'm no electrician lol

Oh well - simple and embarrassing fix - air flow sensor was the wrong way round pmsl

I bow my head in shame
