hello,

 

i am trying desperately to find out what is wrong with my 2.0l 16v black beaut,

 

my abs light is on continuously

 

it was fine until the dash was removed for a heater matrix replacement and the suspension was changed to sports coilovers

 

the temp gauge doesnt work now either after some cowboy mechanic was left to tamper with it

 

 

now the light is on !

 

also a prob with sunroof... i heard it is common it tilts but doesnt retract? any ideas guys pls??

 

i only registered to the site today so be gentle thankyou

 

any ideas would be appreciated

I'd wager the ABS fault is a bent cage on the wheel, but the only way to tell which one is to get the car plugged into VAG-COM which will tell you.

 

Sunroof is a super-common and unpleasant and expensive thing to fix... have a search for sunroof and you'll find far too many results :(

 

Temp gauge for water? It's probably just the sensor in the coolant system, which is fairly easy and cheap to replace...or of course a disconnected wire.

the abs light could be due to the abs sensors being knocked by accident when doing the suspension... or knackered sensor due to old age! they are pretty common to go on all vw's of this era i am lead to beleive from other people and from my personal experience.

 

Ps welcome ;)
