  • airbag light on

    Just this mornig the airbag warning light started not to go away after engine start. Later I noticed that it is gone after some two minutes driving but at the next startup it remains on again. What is this? On my 2,8 Coupe q it is on all the time.

    Most times this is airbag slip ring. See following threads for more:

    If I remember correctly:
    New slip ring is c. 100 UKP + an hours labour to fit.
    New airbag is c. 600 UKP + fitting.
    Tracking down a loose wire is c. 0 UKP + lots of frustrating hours, and some swearing.
    Ck.
