Need some advice
Hey all..
It has been a blue moon since I have been on and made any posts.. let me bring you up to speed.
9 days ago, I was driving my 07 Jetta, coming home from work at 10 in the morning. I had made it down the street before I was rear ended by a drunk driver doing 40. Pretty crazy how your life can take a turn so fast. Jetta was totaled. Air bags didn't deploy and I bashed my head into the steering wheel. It was pretty gnarly. I was taken to the hospital by ambulance while the other drive was lifeflighted.
Well, Last night, I signed for a GTi. Drove it around for a couple hours. Still under the recommended 5000 miles for breaking in, so I wasn't driving like an ***. Well, I got home and as I am sitting waiting for the garage door to open, my check engine light popped up. I didn't really think much about it. Got up this morning, and remembered it.. Took it out for a spin, still feels the exact same way that it did last night. Boosts fine and everything. (note that I do wait for my car to warm up before even driving)
Just need some advice.. Should I take to the dealer? (which I am dreading) Or just reset the light.. (if anyone knows how, let me know)
Thanks all.

Not ignoring..
It was in the late weekend when it happened.
Ended up being a faulty O2 sensor, had it finally replaced today because no one in the state had it.. and was on back order..
Thats just my luck though!
Oh well.
