Hi, this is to help a mate out, he has a 2.0 DSG Touran on an 07 plate, he's been getting the car going into limp mode and cutting out recently, at the same time he gets the glowplug light and the ESP light on the dash.


I'm at a loss as to why this combo would arrive, on the surface of it you would probably say it's a glowplug gone south, and maybe an ABS wheel sensor, his mechanic says the ECU is doing it but I'm not sure, the DSG doesn't flash any fault's, but it is in the year that had the DSG temp sensor trouble iirc.


Was the DSG sensor a recall, and do you think if it is that playing up it could send the ESP light on

There is no recall for the sensor,you need a fault code read to find the source of the limp mode
