Hello forum,

I'm new here.
Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf III Estate (Variant), chassis code 1Z.

After having read a lot of valuable information (thank you to all the participants for that), I would like to ask for advice or help.

I've been researching GRA (Gasoline Direct Injection) for the G3 1Z and I'm looking for someone in the Leipzig-Merseburg area who can unlock the GRA function in the engine control unit. Additionally, my airbag warning light has been constantly illuminated since I disassembled something. Because my three-year-old daughter was in the car and "helping," I'm not sure if the airbag contact ring on the back of the steering wheel might have been twisted, causing this defect. Perhaps it's just an error code that needs to be cleared.

"Is there anyone in the Leipzig-Merseburg area who would be willing to help me with a problem over a couple of beers and a friendly chat?"

Sure, here's the translation:

"Thank you in advance."

Eric.

Usually, a friendly mechanic will read the car's error memory for free. I would have them do that first. They can then clear the errors, and you can see if they reappear or not.

I don't recommend allowing a 3-year-old child to "help" with work on the airbag system.

That's very true regarding the daughter.

I didn't think that through properly, and it won't happen again.

Thank you for the advice.

best regards

Fox kusu.
