[V8] Airbag lights and airheads revisited

[dsaad at icehouse.net]

All of the cluster lights burn out at once - so Audi engineers it so the air bag
light comes on?

I would ask to see that in writing.
Good call to get the car out of there before they cause a real problem.

WAG-O-THE-DAY:

You need to have the airbag code reset. (easy and cheap. Free at a good indi
shop)

You need to turn the dimmer setting up to turn on the dash lights.
