I wouldn't be worried. As they state they are intermittent.

I'm used to VCDS which gives you a little more detail on the fault. It gives you the date and time it occurred, how often it's occurred and the countdown until it auto resets.

With these minor intermittent faults they usually have a countdown. Say a fault throws up a code. The car then watches that system for correct operation. If it operates correctly for, say, 200 times, the computer decides it was a one off and will delete the fault code.

In your case, the codes all look related. I'd say a component was disconnected for some reason. Maybe a fault was found in the factory before it left and a component needed to be replaced. That would throw up a few codes.

I noticed on the dealer delivery checklist that came with my car, included the clearing of nuisance fault codes. Maybe this wasn't done in your case.

Thank you ISDON, im worried it might have big impacts on car operation, if you ve said so i rather ignore these reports.

If it was anything major you would have other symptoms, lights on the dash or a warning message of some sort.

You could clear the codes yourself and then rescan again after a few weeks of driving to see if they reappear. I generally don't clear fault codes myself unless I've caused them myself through my own tinkering and know exactly what they are. They are there for a reason after all.

Sometimes a fault code will stop a system from operating. It may be appropriate to clear it if you can fix the problem.

Our new Tiguan's electric driver's seat refused to change position when opened with different keys. It's supposed to remember the settings for the seat and mirrors for each driver. A VCDS scan threw up a fault code for the drivers seat basically saying that it was missing it's basic calibration. This operation is easily initialised with VCDS. 30 seconds later the seat had calibrated itself and was working fine again. The fault code remained. In this instance I knew what the code was, I corrected the problem so it was entirely appropriate to clear the fault code as it was no longer relevant.

If it were me, I'd just leave your codes as they are. As long as you have no symptoms then don't give them another thought. When you take the car in for its first service then do an up to date scan for codes and ask the service department to explain to you what they are and to fix the problems or clear the codes as appropriate. You'll probably find many of these intermittent codes have already cleared themselves by then anyway.

Oh I see, honestly it is first time i can be approaching this kind of scanning technology, after few seconds i felt depressed due to many faults found keep adding up while scanning. Thank you for relieving my stresses, your explanation lifted 100000 tons away from my shoulder .... hehe.... i dont care about it anymore unless it starts playing around when im driving otherwise id keep it for service people to look at as per IsDon ...hehe ....thank you very much Isdon again .....i meant to delete the fault code at that time but i did not hit the button because i knew im not in position that can make decision due to my car 's knowledge .....hehe
