My Golf SE 1.6 is 2 weeks out of warranty and today I have been quoted £1353 for a new ABS Unit by a main dealership. The ESP light is permanently on amber and is showing as switched off (I cant switch it back on). What I can't understand is why, if I need a new ABS Unit, the ABS warning light isn't on.
Also, I've been having very intermittant problems with both the ESP and ABS lights coming on and the car juddering and feeling as though it's pulling to one side. A couple of times the car also lost complete power - totally dead, no lights on the dash, no turning over of the engine etc. After a few minutes, came back to life & no problems - mileage trip and clock restarted. Nothing revealed by main dealer first time - second time they replaced the fuel pump under warranty. Now further problems with the ESP and out of warranty.
Any suggestions - please help as I havn't a clue, but I feel as though it's a problem that should have been sorted under warranty and now I'm going to have to pay loads to get it fixed.
Thanks, Kay
