Hello all


The ABS system on my 2004 Golf started playing up over the weekend. Warning light has come on in the dashboard. A browse online has indicated that it may be a common VW fault with the MkV Golfs. Just wondering if anyone local has encountered anyting similar? And also whether any kind soul has a VAG-COM (or similar) diagnostic tool they could lend me for an hour or so.


Thanks

I have a Mark V Golf, and the dashboard lights up more than an overdecorated Christmas tree. The entire electrical system seems terribly fragile. Hawley, if I were you, I'd get a friendly car mechanic to give the brakes a quick once-over and reset the dashboard light. And then read the other thread about buying a new or secondhand car...

Sounds like the same problem as my Touran, ABS unit failed twice. First time was replaced under warranty but recently I took it to O'Neill Motors near the Old Kent Road who fixed rather than replaced it. Good service and not too pricey.

I drove with the warning light on for about a year BTW!

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
