How do you clear codes for emission test?

My 2001 vw jetta failed smog test due to emission test...i have 8 codes and check engine light on...it has to ?

  • Answer:

    8 codes! Were you just planing to drive it to it's death. The minute the light came on you should of had it checked because one thing can lead to another. Failure to maintain is the biggest reason for a VW's death. Other wise they run forever. I got over 400,000 miles on each of my last two with no break downs. My current one has one has only 120,000 so it's just broken in. Now that being said. you need to have all the codes fixed clear the computer and drive it a week or so and see if any new codes appear. If they light stays off you are good to go for the emission test.

Indeed, it has to. And you need to fix everything that's contributing to those codes, or you're never going to pass.
