mike 6 Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 iv been told, turning the ignition key so the lights are on, and leaving it for a few minuites does it? or diconecting the battery... wont clear codes tho.... Link to post Share on other sites

UnitedMotorsport 55 Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 To remove all adapted values from the ECU simply remove ALL power from the ECU. This wont clear fault codes though. Link to post Share on other sites
golfgirlvr6 0 Posted December 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 So basically without the use of vag-com you cant remove the codes?!!!! What are adapted values?! Link to post Share on other sites
UnitedMotorsport 55 Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 Adapted values are things like fuel trims, idle adaptions. Things that can be wrong if the engine was running incorrect and is now fixed for example.Fault codes can only be removed with a scan tool such as VAG-COM. Link to post Share on other sites
