Mk3 Golf TDi (again) - Patrick C
My 27000 mile P reg Golf Tdi is now nearly repaired.....

But i am wondering about the airbag. It was deployed, and i managed to get a replacement from a VW breakers yard. The car is a runner but the airbag warning light is not showing (and hasnt been even with the blown airbag fitted).

What i need to know is - has someone reset the electronics and made the light go out and will my new airbag work in the event of a crash ? Even worse, will it go off when its not supposed to !!

Is this just another reason why i should get the car plugged into the VW diagnostic computer ??

Any help appreciated.
