Seatbelt indicator issue

[miA4]

So I was driving this morning, and my seatbelt indicator turned off. Well, I was getting close to work and all of a sudden it back to flicker and chime. I also noticed that when I have my seatbelt on, my air bag light will flicker... any ideas???

Bad connection in your seat belt buckle, classic. It will trigger an airbag mil. You can try to see where its failing and fix it or just buy one from a salvage yard and replace it.

Scan via vagcom to confirm this.

To my knowledge, by law, aren't these things covered with a lifetime warranty?

No clue, less trouble for me to scavenge one and install it than deal with a stealership
