EPC light?!?!?
The EPC light came on in my 2003 NB on my way to work this morning? The manual doesn't say much about it (EPC = Electronic Power Control). Can anyone explain? It's next to impossible for me to get the car to a mechanic until Friday! HELP!

epc light can come on if the air filter is clogged, the maf is reading erroneously, or a variety of other things. try changing your air filter first, see what happens.

Buy a VAG-COM cable off of Ross Tech or a copy off EBay and then download the trial software from Ross Tech.
read the cars error codes and post them here. regards, Ian

I had this happen to me too - we had been driving around and while accelerating to 60 (highway) I noticed that my EPC was on. And yeah, the manual is vague about details...
For the rest of the afternoon - the duration of turning on, driving, parking, off, errands, on again -- the EPC light was on and off... It never flashed, and there was never a loss/reduction in power. It is now off and has stayed off. Should I be concerned?
