Is there anyone out there who lives near Gloucester who could plug me in for 2 mins???

I need my Passenger air-bag switched off for now.

We had a baby boy on Tuesday, and id like him to sit in the front (rear facing baby seat) - but im not allowed if air bag is active.

I have asked SKODA to turn it off, but their policy has changed and they are no longer allowed to switch it off just incase i have a normal passenger in the car one day.

My mrs will be driving my FABIA vRS every day whilst im at work, and its a bit difficult to put baby in a rear facing seat in the rear of the car.... what if he is sick? or chokes? May as well just put him in the boot - wont hear him then either! (joke)

someone help please!!!!

Do you have the correct information for disabling the aribag?

Do you have the correct information for disabling the aribag?

nope - i just heard that its possible to be done via VAG com. do u know any different Stu?

Yep

You can do it with VAG-COM but you need a login code.

You are also supposed to order a sticker set and display it on the dash.

youve lost me!!!!!

where do i get a login code?

i can get a sticker somewhere.

The sticker has a part number - 1H0 010 076E

The login code would come from the dealer or someone who knows it.

do u know it? PM me if u do

anyone?

Any ideas if this can be dealer fitted ?

I don't think it's a retrofit.

Dealers used to disable them for people who needed to put kid seats in.

I don't mean to pass judgement or owt, but imho kids belong in the back. Let the driver concentrate on driving, and pull over if need be. Makes the baby less of a distraction.

If you can get your 4 digit login, and the "how-to" to do this, I'll do it for you at TSR. I have not got the foggiest how to do it myself, so I would not even attempt it. The 4 digit code usually came in a plastic sleeve attached to your keyring, but with the long code off the back of the dashpod, along with vital info like reg, etc, the login code can be found.

It's not the 4 digit SKC that you need Jason.

Kinda agree there.

But if i'm doing a longer trip on my own with my daughter (8mths) i like her to be in the front.

Never been a problem till now, as my last car didn't have a passenger airbag.

Really? So a different code than you use to login to recode keys?

Yes, there are different codes depending on the model of airbag fitted.

i cant post in "ask a tech" - ahhhhhhgggg!

You could if you were a freedom member
