While driving to work (2002 Golf TDI) in subzero temps today, I got a flashing glow plug light and a CEL. Engine was running OK, so I continued the drive. On my way home, the car started up fine, but after about twenty seconds the flashing glow plug and CEL returned. Stopped for fuel -- same thing on startup.
I read the thread on flashing glow plug, but I don't think this is a brake light/relay switch issue. The cruise control works fine, and the brake lights all come on properly.
I have a long commute -- 170 miles round trip -- and it might be two weeks before I can get the car to a dealer. Is it safe to drive in the interim, or should I park it until it can get looked at?
Waiting on the collective wisdom...
