    Folks

    I would appreciate the help on the below read out of the VAG-COM diagnosis report.

    (Thank You Simon in Wiltshire for the VAG-COM availability, top guy very quick response)

    Fault Description: Flashing PRNDS, 2004 GOLF GT TDI DSG 140 BHP.

    Fault Code from VAG-COM:
    1 Fault Found:
    18012 - Internal Control Module: Output Driver IC Error
    P1604 - 000 - - - MIL ON


    Initially the fault was intermittent, i.e. would disappear randomly, short term workaround was to reset the fault codes or to disconnect the battery to reset the electrical circuits, however now the PRNDS lights flash continuously and although I am able to put the car into various gears the car simply doesn’t move in any direction.

    I am unable to locate fault code 18012 on the following website:
    http://wiki.ross-tech.com/index.php/Category:Fault_Codes

    I called Ross-Tech and they informed me the website is not updated with all fault codes and the best thing to do was to post on this forum for a quick response.

    Full output is pasted below.

    Faulty Mechatronic unit, £1300 plus fitting or a new box at £3.5K plus fitting.

    A VAG indi will be able to do the work IF they are experienced with DSG’s, the parts will cost the same but the labour will be less. Using genuine parts will still give you a two year dealer backed labour inclusive warranty.

    out of interest what would the value of this car be if sold with this known fault? i am considering all options repairing & keeping it, or even selling it in its current condition. i am open to sensible offers. i am hoping theres independents out there that maybe carry out the work themselves and either keep the car or sell on for a profit.. any feedback appreciated..
