So I got my VAGCOM in the mail today and decided to try it out. I had many more failures than expected.
I did a forum search and from the comments it sounds like disconnecting the battery may cause some codes to pop up that are not really codes. I have disconnected the battery a couple of times recently so I am hoping this is the case.
My thought is to clear the codes and see if the show again. Do you think there is any harm in clearing the codes and driving on the car? The paranoid person in me doesn't want to harm the car by driving when codes are showing.
I am heading out of town tomorrow but the car is going to an Audi Dealer (scary I know). A couple of options I have are to
- Clear the codes and drive around tonight to see if they surface again
- Leave the codes as is
- Clear the codes
Thanks
