Where's the best place to get 2 new sensors and reluctor rings (if it makes sense to replace too)? Euros is over a 100 quid! If the sensors were short or open circuit the light would be on the dash? Does your light come on when you turn the ignition on? Then go off after it’s self check? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'f the system is as it left the factory and is a UK car and the self check is as normal (IGN on - light on - self check - light off) the system is declaring the wiring and sensors OK? What codes do you get? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dox 23 Posted November 1, 2021 If the system is more relliable when the engine bay is hot - suspect dry solder joints on the pumps PCB If the light appears during / after braking suspect the pedal position sensor (this again is dry solder joints and is a DIY fix - I'd do this first anyway and there's no need to break into the brake hydraulics.

You want the shorter ones as the longer ones were for the Passat I think. https://www.trwaftermarket.com/en/catalogue/#market=gb&vehicleType=P&manufacturerId=121&modelId=3887&vehicleId=|1755%2CFront Wheel Drive (08%2F91 -> 12%2F95%3B 190HP %2F 140KW)&productGroupId=412 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dox 23 Posted November 1, 2021 Clear the codes and drive the car to see if they return, they could be old codes from your fiddling? pedal sensor would be my first point of call for the intermittent light Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They were also present the first time I scanned the car so definitely something at fault. If new sensors don't do the trick, pedal sensor is next up I suppose!

UKLonar 10 Posted January 12, 2022 (edited) Long time since the last update, I've a few things left to sort out but have done a few bits. I changed the plastic seat guides on the drivers seat to stop it from rocking left and right so much, made quite the difference for a 2 quid piece of plastic! I also fitted Audi TT wiper arms and 20" Bosch aero blades, whilst doing this I replaced all the washer hose under the bonnet. What a world of difference, I'd recommend this upgrade to anyone! I've gone around underneath to check for any surface rust too, only finding a few bits here and there. I've rubbed these all back, treated and sealed to keep it tidy for years to come. I suppose the biggest difference is new wheels, which are BBS RX201 I believe. I bought these as the RH wheels unfortunately developed a slow leak from a split bolt. Few bits to sort next, then I'd have thought it'll be up for sale shortly after. Edited January 12, 2022 by UKLonar Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
