Longitudinal Acceleration Sensor (G251)
VAG · unknown
Data confidence80%
The control module detected a fault associated with the Longitudinal Acceleration Sensor (G251) circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Volkswagen. Documented stored variants include: Implausible Signal; No or Incorrect Basic Setting / Adaptation. Documented across Volkswagen Group applications (Audi, SEAT and Škoda included).

Is 01279 generic or manufacturer-specific?
01279 is a manufacturer-specific code. In this database it is documented for: VAG. The same number can mean something different on other brands.
Can TuningBot remove 01279 at file level?
Not guaranteed. 01279 is a manufacturer-specific code in an OEM format, so removability depends on the specific control unit and how the fault is implemented - some can be handled, some cannot. Ask for a quote and our engineers will check your file and tell you, free of charge, whether 01279 is removable in your case.
