Hello folks, (bestest pals) ;)
I know this question has been asked before, and I've done loads of searches, but the answers seem to vary so much, from "ignore it" to "have it exorsised".
I've just had the front pads and discs changed today, and now when I start the engine I get three beeps, followed by the messages "STOP", Brake Fault", "Service Manual", plus the red circled (!) symbol. The ABS light comes ON for a few seconds, then goes OUT as it should do. The garage where I had the jod done is not a VW one, but the mechanic took the car to our local VW ******** for advise. They gave the stock reply about unless the car is hooked up to the diagnostics it could be....the hand brake switch, blown fuse, low brake fluid level etc.. Fluid level is fine, and brake associated fuses are fine. I realise it could be a glitch as the brakes seem to be working excellent, but it's a bit worrying as I'm supposed to be off down to London in it on Friday. :(
Any help would be most appreciated.:)
