Problem with Tiggy - Dash Lights coming on

Hi guys,

2 weeks ago I got a call from my wife, she left the kids in school and the traction control light and flat tire indicators popped up, she turned the car off later, back on drove 2 blocks erased. 3 days later the same thing in the same place, it happens while she's going an uneven part of the road at slow speed, checked with VAG COM that day (not with the fault present) and just showed this:

I drove it yesterday to the racetrack and on my way out on a dirt roat (uneven) with some stones maybe at 5km/h little ding, and the same 2 lights, turned off the car and back on and it erased itself.

Checked today and found the same exact fault (not sure if I erased it) so I asked her that if it happens she needs to come to my office and check it live.

Any ideas or suggestions by all of you Tiggy lovers.

Well, it sounds like you have analysed it very thoroughly.

Take it back to a service dealer. Sounds like it is still under warranty??

The steering angle sensor seems to be a likely sounding item from the diagnostics you brought up?

I'm out of warranty since may

so that is why i'm trying somebody to help me out. I also think it's the steering angle but need the live fault to pop out to see what is really going on.
