So I have a 2011 VW Passat, it was working fine yesterday and when I got in the car today it wouldn't start. The battery indicator light is lighting up in red, and the EPC and check engine light we're all popping up in yellow. When I start it, it's getting power but it's turning on and off on and off on and off. It's like trying to get power to all the other parts of the car and failing to do so. What's wrong with my car? I checked the oil and the oil is fine I tried to jump it and that wasn't the problem either. What do I do?
Wait… “new battery”? he only stated that he’d tried to “jump it & that wasn’t the problem either”. No “new battery”, nor anything else -new- was added/changed if taking his inquiry @ face value. Just fyi & i’m letting u know in hopes some1 SOMEwhere CAN answer this cuz i had similar issue w/my old Passat i USED to own.
A friend told me the same thing about the new battery, have to take it to a repair shop so they can set the computer and battery together
