| According to both my user handbook and the Haynes 'manual', the display in the centre of the instrument cluster should display oil level info and other information for about 20 seconds when the ignition is turned on. However, mine only displays the brake-pad warning light, fuel level, door open etc but no other text or graphics. Is this correct or is my instrument cluster knackered? And if so, can it be repaired? Thanks in advance. |

| Neither does mine. I don't think my Haynes even claims that there's an oil level readout in the car. |

| You can switch of the warning with a VAG COM or cut of the sensor as in below thread. http://www.briskoda.net/forums/techn...via-mk1/50061/ I did the cut sensor method. Only one sensor on the left front IIRC.
