My emmissions light is on
A couple days ago my EPC lights came on. After I stop it disappears. Today the emmissions light went on.
The car is a VW Golf 1.6 from 2001.
I have Diagnostic test running and it came up with the following:
Fault code P1553 eight sensor / induction manifold pressure sesor invalid ratio.
P1403 exhaust - gas recirculation system control diference.
