There is a recall related to passenger seat occupancy sensor. I am not sure how the recalls are handled in Belgium.

 

Happened to mine as well...take it to you dealership and they will take care of it.

 

Need to read the error codes, can be one of many things. For me it was the airbag ECU, expensive ...

 

It is normally the mat sensor built in to the passenger seat, expensive fix....you can buy a plug in box or get it coded out for a fix. This one for later cars http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1808007515...84.m1423.l2649 and this for earlier http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230737358610

 

i had that on my idrive once before from removeing the seat. got it erased at the dealer for free cuz i knew the kid. just the other day it came back on outta no where. im just leaving it on untill i can get it erased again. pain in the ass looking at that all day long

 

it is the mat sensor ...

pritty expensive ...

so i buy a replacement sensor , ...

now the airbag always works , en the error is gone on the screen :-)

and it also cost 40 euro ....

airbag sensor mat = like 500 euro :-)

so i saved 460 euro

It is not always the mat. It can be something else so read the codes so that you do not spend money and time needlessly!

 

"airbad sensor warning" - you may want to get a gas mask (or change topic title)!
