Own a VW 02 Polo bought 2 half years ago
The Airbag light on the dash came up
Mechanic told me that only VW dealer can fix it
Just got the quote today €430 including fitting!!!
The Airbag Control Unit is gone
Is this normal for VW and are airbags that expensive
No wonder scobies rob them from cars
Yeah bit of a rip of but dont have much choice
VW dealer did hook up laptop and said it was a circuit in the control unit and
they have to replace it all
that sounds like the instrument cluster to me..i had the same problem with my car..my airbag light is on..but the real problem i snot the airbag..its a faulty instrument cluster that cause it

So how much was it to fix this Faulty instrument cluster ? The airbag light came on but only quoting what they said to me
Time to ring them up damn they are closed for lunch
Will ring and post

yeah, having talked to the mechanic in VW they told me to replace it, but the speedo/ rev meter working fine) so i am not really convinced if putting in a new instrument cluster can really solve the problem...so i asked many people here on AAM but after days still got no response,
eventually week after someone told me in Rathcoole theres a c/o fix faulty /electrcial fault in car. and that they seen similar case in VW/Audi car before and quote me 230 to get it fix.
i would be much happier to get spiecliast who know wats happening to get it fixed for me

On V.W.'s, Air bag's, control units, pre-tens, they all go from time to time. I've seen polo9n on this web site a lot and fair enough in your case it prob is the cluster but you have been saying your going to get it done for a good long while now, so it's prob best you go get it done and then let us know. As regards Air bag units etc being replaced if something goes wrong if you were in an accident and when the insurance co. do a report it will show up the faults in history and it will have to be a V.W. approved dealer that fitted the parts. If not they won't pay up.
