Every VW owner can relate to this

Of COURSE it's on a VW GOLF!

What does this light mean. I probably need to know this in a few years.

"Penny, your 'check engine' light is on!"
MuffyTheHamburgerSlayer
That's called the VW Owners' Club.

My check engine just came on because the turbo blew up while on the highway

The last one of these had me pay 7000 dollars ????

Mine goes yellow when it wants me to fund a for dealer (service) or red if something is actually wrong
chekhonte
LOL I know right? My oil light has been on for a week. Fuck all that noise.
DickDynasty
I checked, my engine is still there so I kept driving.
pdhackley
Put tape over it, problem solved!

Last time that light came on. Turned out to be misfiring cylinders. Replaced the coil boots and spark plugs myself.
exlurker42
I am one of those people.

Vdub lyfe!!!
Bergmanify
Scare away sea monsters, yeah! I'm gonna let it shine!

Am I the only one who 1st thought of ultralight beam by Kanye West?
noneyobusisness
It's a guessing game and it's sucks!
TheGreatAnhey
Reminds me of grim fandango
Twatimz
I have my one on just now, I ain't fixing it MG ZT V6 190 biggest pile of shite I've ever bought
Hernepera
Grim Fandango +1
NirvanaNik
As a fellow veedubber, can confirm.
TheBelowAverageHulk
My engine light is always on my Subaru. Exhaust emissions, I've chosen to keep it on
okwhynotletsfuckingdoit
Guilty for the same reason, but mine's an Audi A4. Since I knew what it was, I also have chosen to ignore it.
Kitastrophe
Is this something that happens with Subarus? My boyfriend's has been on for a year, same reason.
Where the standard exhaust is so restrictive on emissions, nearly any exhaust to get the proper subaru sound will turn the light on.
There is nothing wrong with the car though, you can get it remapped to turn the light off but I can't be bothered
theangryjanitor
Anything from a loose gas cap to holy crap I should buy a new car, what a fun general alert.
bentwrenches
In the business we call it the check money light.
UzY3L
Mazda RX8 made it very simple: light is solid= CAT is gone. Light is blinking= misfire. Only 2 states, genius!
drickanderson
ODBII readers are so cheap now though
HTButterBunsofSteel
I have to check mine weekly so an OBD was the best purchase ever. (Cat has been running sour for ages so it keeps it on)
TugAndChug
Not to mention most auto shops (Autozone, Advance, OReillys) will check it for free.
chrisjfinlay
Sadly I don't think anywhere in the UK will, not that I'm aware of. But like poster above said, OBDII is cheeeeaaaaaaaap
