stuey 0 Posted July 7, 2005 Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 Hi, been trying to find the OBD2 port on my '97 Golf Highline but no luck. My mates tester manual says it is behind a sliding panel behind the ashtray on later cars, but not on mine! Any ideas?? Thanks Link to post Share on other sites
Slim 0 Posted July 7, 2005 Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 Pull out the ashtray completely. To the left of the gap you've just made, there's a plate that follows the lines of the dashboard. Slide it to the right. Job done. Link to post Share on other sites

antera309 3 Posted July 7, 2005 Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 The OBD port is behind the sliding panel above the cigarette lighter on all Mk3s, even the 1999-2002 Cabrio models. What is behind that panel on your car? is it an empty hole? If so, the plug may have fallen inside. Link to post Share on other sites
stuey 0 Posted July 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 Thanks guys, the instructions made it seem like the sliding panel was inside the ashtray recess, not next to it! Anyway found it now, thanks for the help :-) Link to post Share on other sites
