Passat ABS/Brake warning light

[alex b]

Does anyone know of any common problems with the abs/brake system on the Passat Synchro?

Also should the warning lights stay on, or do they flash up intermittently ?

The car is a '99 estate model. Just wanted a rough idea, of what it could be before putting it in the garage.

Well Doucmented issue, google "VAG ABS Pump" - if your lucky its a sensor, if not its the Pump!

Really annoyed VAG havnt done a recall on this!
