  Hi Loren,

 I think your questions have been answered pretty well so I won't repeat the
same thing.


Thing is the check engine light now
>comes on.  I'm wondering if it's causal or coincidence?


 The best thing to do to find out why the CEL is on is to invest a few $ and
get a copy of the Vag-Com software, found here:

http://www.ross-tech.com/

 You can use their cable or get it elsewhere. Here are two sources for
interface cables to use with Vag-Com:

Explained in this thread, you'll have to cut and paste it:

And,
http://www.obdtool.com/

The first one is $50 and the second one is $70, compared with $100 from
Ross-Tech.

 I haven't got it, YET, but will definitely do so. I have heard nothing but
good comments on the software. It's a must for the TDI do-it-yourselfer.

 There is also a thread on Frd's site listing who has Vag-Com and where they
are located, who are willing to help fellow TDIers diagnose problems.

 You'll have to cut-n-paste that one, too.

Happy clattering,
