Hi Folks,
I'd appreciate any comments and suggestions please. I HAVE spent quite a bit of time searching on this matter to no real avail. I have an auto 2012 T5.1, 132kw as below.
Recently the Glo plug lamp has started flashing whilst driving. The first time it happened last week I stopped the car and restarted and the matter was solved. I drove 100+km without an issue. I have driven the car a few times since on short trips with no issue. Today the lamp started flashing again so I started reading in this and other fora.
It is NOT an issue with the brake switch, as the rear brake lights work as they should.
I should say that much of the 206,000km I have travelled has been on longer trips so issues of a dirty DPD are unlikely - even my VW mechanic has said this is never likely to be an issue for me.
I have run diagnostics on my vehicle and partial results are below. (A radio error is due to my having an aftermarket radio and the ambient air temperature error has been a feature of my vehicle since new!).
I'd appreciate any suggestion as to where the flashing light issue might be coming from please - that is, which of these errors might be pointing to it. It is only a matter of about 6 weeks and maybe 400km since my last VW service. I don't really want to go back to them $o $oon.
Sorry the print in the file is so small. Clicking on it should pop the image out.)

Any suggests would be appreciated, especially if there are matters I can address myself.
Thanks folks.
David
