Interrogating and erasing fault memory
Fault codes 16485 - 17948
Note:
SAE-codes (e.g. P 0101) are listed in addition to the familiar V.A.G. fault codes with five digits. These P-codes do not have to be considered for the time being, they will be relevant for future generations of self-diagnosis systems.
