Hi all,
My wife was about to drive home from work the other night - when she started up the car (Golf Mk4 V6 4motion, 2002, 52 plate, 53000 miles) she was greeted by a barcode on the dash display which then changed to text saying:
Test 1 ok
Test 2 ok
Test 3 ok
Test 4 ok
Test Complete
As puzzled as she was by this, she let the routine complete to the 'Test Complete' bit and left it a minute before switching the car off. ('Test Complete' remained on the screen)
She restarted the car and it started normally with no odd displays.
My question is: what the hell was this and is there anything to be concerned about?
My personal opinion is that it's some sort of self diagnostic routine, but having never seen it before I'm a bit confused about it.
Can anybody shed any light on this one?
Thanks in advance!:D
