I would like to know the same, but it seems like no one knows for sure.

I have hybrid valves, the lights only come on between shifts, but not all the time.

Default Vag it - you need to know the DTC. With my car it was a faulty brake switch.

With others it was the MAF. Where in Chicago are you. I have a vag tool and work in Bucktown - live in the near West burbs.

Default You either have a bad MAF or boost leak

but sinne you got 2001, I say most likely you have a boost leak, check your TTB, BPV and the intercool hose
