I'm starting to lose my st with this car!

Today the ABS and ESP warning lights came on (to compliment the engine management and EPC warning lights caused by coking, and the TPMS warning caused by the batteries failing).

Any idea what the cause of these new warning lights may be? The car hasn't been driven hard for a couple of weeks - it has done 2 / 3 mile runs to the train station and back and that's about it - could it be a build up of brake dust fooling the sensors? Knackered sensors? Something else?

The car is in for a carbon clean at MRC in 2 weeks, so that will be some of the issues sorted! Unfortunately I don't have Vagcom.....

'Fraid I can't suggest a solution or reason but worth asking on RS246.com if you haven't already. There's lots of knowledgeable guys on there.

I got Vagcom last year - excellent bit of kit and well worth the money 😀
