    This happened to mine on Saturday night and yesterday. I've changed my brake lights on Sat morning (both are working fine). I don't have a tune. Can anyone help?
    Cheers,

    Hi Kelvin,

    No haven't been able to check it with Vagcom yet. Will prob get to a dealer next week so they can check it for me. It's so intermittant that it wouldn't surprise me if they find nothing.
    Cheers,

    John

    esp work by measuring tyres rotation, if you got 1 different wheel size in there, esp & abs will not functioning properly hence code.

    Thats right guys, abs and esp all calculated by rolling radius, tyre pressures included, which allowed them to get rid of the RF transmittors in the valves
