no i have a aftermarket stereo in my own audi it does not cause the engine light to come on. If the engine light is on it has to do with your engine.

if your using a regular obd it does not register more then half the codes a vw generates. You need a Ross Tech scanner software and dongal to gain access to those codes. You have 1 of two options Find a vw specialist shop or buy the proper dongal and software from amazon. some vw specialist shops will scan your car as a curtsy and let you know whats going down.
