SOURCE: MY GLOW PLUG LIGHT IS FLASHING IN MY DASH BOARD VW
Despite what you may read from other comments....The glow plug light is
simple a multi function warning light and IS among many othed
things in fact used to warn of brake light and brake light switch
failure. Therefore it can NOT be treated as glow plug problems only.
I have worked on V.W for many years and have encountered this problem
many times. You should get the OBD codes read. This will reveal the
exact problem...and there may be more than one
You can contact your V,W agents if you wish and check to see if I am correct.
Best of luck

There's a level sensor plugged into the bottom of the coolant reservoir. Unplug it and clean the contacts with electrical contact cleaner. If that doesn't do the trick, replace the sensor.
