Anybody know? Is it the #194 type bulb, same as the city light on the Golf, but amber colored? Just burnt out on the way to work this morning. Thanks. The fast clicking sound of the blinker is annoying. /images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif

Chris, it may be a PY21W. Do you have your OM accessible to verify?

OM, owners manual? I will look at it when I get home. I didn't think it would be in there.

That's why VW made the little side "ledges" in the glovebox. To put the owners manual.

I have the same problem. Dropped by Autozone (i think), and they gave me a bulb (part #LT3357NA). I can't verify that it is the right on yet as I haven't succeeded in putting it in yet. See my post for how changing the bulb can be a pain in the @rse.

I finally got the blinker out after a protracted effort... The number on the left blinker bulb was (3457A). The right blinker had a slightly different number (3457KNA). I didn't try the new bulb as my "broken blinker" magically resumed normal function follwing bumper and headlight removal. /images/graemlins/tongue.gif /images/graemlins/confused.gif

the American cross-referenced bulb is usually OK though the intensity and the diameter of the bulb's base is usually off a little. A purist would never accept though the general motoring public will never notice the difference.

Same thing is happening to me. I didn't work for a few days, then it worked for a month or so, and now it is out again (currently 2 days). ***?
