Consumer Description
CAR BATTERY IS IN GOOD SHAPE BECAUSE I RECENTLY REPLACED IT WITH A NEW ONE. THE PROBLEM IS OCCASIONALLY I TRY TO START THE VEHICLE AND IT WILL NOT START WHEN THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT IS BLINKING BUT IF I USE MY CAR KEYS TO LOCK AND UNLOCK THE CAR, THEN THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT WILL GO OFF AND CAR WILL START. LAST WEEK IT OCCURRED TWO TIMES AND I TOOK THE CAR TO VOLKSWAGEN DEALERSHIP BUT THEY TOLD ME, THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST IS NOT SHOWING ANY CODE AND HENCE THERE IS NO PROBLEM WITH MY CAR BUT I THINK THERE IS A PROBLEM BECAUSE I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM FIVE TIMES IN TOTAL. THEY REQUESTED I TOW MY CAR TO THEM THE NEXT TIME IT OCCURS TO SEE IF THE CODE CAN BE DETERMINED BUT I STILL NOT COMFORTABLE BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS COMING NEXT. *TR
