the glow plugs only come on when the engine is below a certain temp,so if you drove it to the gas station,chances are it didnt need them.BUT,it could have been just at the temp that the glow plugs werent needed and the engine was still coldish.happens very rarely.wet air is colder than hot air so that would also have an effect.lastly, this engine is known to foul up the injectors with carbon so use redexe/wynns or similar at 1can to 1/2 tank fuel,you WILL feel the difference.......

You must have the traction control system scanned for the fault code that is present when the light is on.

The engine number location depends on engine type.

faulty brake switch at foot petal

thats the heater coil symbol for the diesel engines.
does it stay solid at beginning as normal?
if the car drives normal, then maybe its just a loose connection/wire somewhere

replace starter hit it with a hammer to see if it will go

We think it could be the engine management system - would recommend going to a reputable garage for it to be reprogrammed.

If you are losing water and it is not being forced out of the reservoir (unlikely) and ther is no sign of it dripping from the engine plumbing... then if your acceleration is starting to diminish... or you seem to not have as much power as usual, then it is probably a faulty cylinder head gasket... sorry.... hopefully not, as this is a bit of a job to fix.

worn coil pack?
its a problem with some golfs
type worn coil pack golf tdi on google and you should see everything on it. i think theres an uprated set out now don't quote me on it tho!
