Why does VW Golf glow plug warning light flash?

Hi all,

l have golf mk4 but most cars vw use the same parts.

glow plug or "spring" light on my board started to flash, found on line two reasons ...
Before, check your book but not much over there for that problem so as l said there is two reasons that l know.
1. electric problem with back breaking lights, both bulbs were blown so check the all the bulbs or..

2. break pedal switch has stuck or gone, so found any car parts shop and ask for one.

Very easy to replace, take off the panel above the pedals , there is three screws to undue and simply you have access to break pedal switch. Replace it with new one.

Soon as l have done that glow plug light stopped to flash, there was no further issues.

have someone with you cos in the day light make sure break lights are working properly.
Or simply use the mirror, that's what I've done.

You will find on line many answers and pictures of how to do that but on some there is just too many things to take off, SO IT IS ACTUALLY VERY SIMPLE !!!

Hope this helps.

Ive had headgasket replaced now being told its blowing smoke from the exhaust which it wasnt doing before what could course this how to fix.?

You did not mention what kind of car it is. However, what kind of smoke ? If it is blue(oil), it could be that the car is one with fairly "low tension" piston rings, which can quickly become ruined in a situation of severe overheating.

If it is white smoke, you still have an internal coolant leak of some kind that is causing anti-freeze to enter the combustion chambers.

How do you change piston rings on a 1986 Volkswagen GTI Golf?

Disconnect all the wiring, exhaust and fuel system at the motor. Separate motor and transmission to pull the motor out. Take off the oil pan, intake manifold, cylinder heads and connecting rod bolts. Pop the pistons out the top of the block, take old rings off, clean ring grooves and put new rings on. Make sure groove on rings is positioned according to MFG specs. Hone the cylinders, compress rings on piston and reinstall. Replace all old gaskets with new and tighten connecting rod, intake manifold, oil pump and cylinder head bolts in increments to MFG specs. Make sure that pistons, connecting rod caps, pushrods and head bolts go back in the very same location they came out of...don't mix anything up because each part wears in a unique pattern. Reinstall motor and reattatch everything taken off. I wouldn't advise attempting this without a shop manual.

**Firstly its not necessary to remove the transmission/engine for rings - that's a MUCH bigger job. u can simply take the top off with the engine mounted as per the original manual.

Secondly - Note there are very delicate checks when dismantling the block - its not just remove this remove that etc, u have to turn the engine to a specific position before removing internal bolts,u have to also undo various bolts in a specific order - ie the cam caps for instance... this is not a bmx - its a car engine!

I agree though - get a manual or pdf on the net with images. Make sure EVERY bit goes in the way it came out - take pictures if necessary and make notes. Place bolts in bank bags with notes written on - etc etc.
