Hello all,
Warning lights have just recently started being lit in my Passat, 1,9TDI. It happened while towing a trailor, so I have been wondering if it could have some connection, but maybe not. The “ABS” warning light and the “ESP” warning light lights up shortly after starting a drive. The “pre start glow light” also starts blinking and the text “MOTORSTÖRG. WERKSTATT!” (Engine fault, go to a garage) appears shortly in the display.
Does anybody have any idea what these warnings could be? Faulty ABS sensor?

I like to do as much as possible myself on this old vehicle. So I purchased a diagnostic instrument, so that it could hopefully narrow down the fault for me e.g. tell me which abs speed sensor is faulty or whatever. So I bought an “iCarsoft i908” for Audi/VW/Seat/Skoda hoping it would give me some valuable fault codes. But no It connects fine with the vehicle, seems to scan like it should, and then displays: “ The vehicle has no fault codes”….
Anybody who has used similar diagnostic instruments with or without success and who could give me some hints why this instrument is not coming up with the fault codes?

I will be very appreciative of any help with this 😊
