Hi,
I had a local garage replace my 5K0-953-569-C and the part I purchased was a brand new 5K0-953-569-AL which I believed was the newer replacement for the 5K0-953-569-C.
However after fitting the part and then charging me extra for a VW person to run diaganostics they advised they believe the part is faulty or I should be using the part 5K0-953-569-C - as 3 additional fault errors lights appear on my dash - one of these appears to look like a traction light, also I am not sure if the auto hold is functioning correctly.
Originally there was an airbag warning light and fault with the horn.
I am not convinced the garage that did the original job know are correct and I was wondering if someone can advise me on the following?
1) Is it ok for me to replace the 5K0-953-569-C Steering Module / Clock spring with 5K0-953-569-AL?
2) If yes what additional programming etc is required for the new errors to disappear?
3) If no and I should have the full exact same part number - 5K0-953-569-C - can you please advise where I can purchase this cheaply I do not mind if it is second hand - I have already looked on eBay?
I am based in UK and I know I could take it down to VW, but they always start charging expensive fees before they even start doing any work.
Thanks in advance
