my car just started working this morning...

what the heck...

mechanic cheked VAGCOM codes, just one intermittent immobilizer code and a too rich engine code.

no codes elsewhere...

Keeping my appt at the dealer for next week, we'll see how she behaves.

Not sure if this has been covered yet.....

How's your battery? If it's low, maybe it's messing with other stuff?

battery is pretty new. so that's not an option.

i checked the fuses last night, no luck.

almost certain it's the radiator fan control module....

or my car has bird flu.

Okay...one more stab in the dark....

Maybe disconnect the battery to reset everything. Though, I'm thinking that won't really do much. Could be worth a shot?????
And if not, I hope the dealer can diagnose it easily and start it on whatever meds it needs...
