  • Warning Lights When Turning Wheel Hard

    Hoping someone can help! Have a GTI MKV (2006) DSG.
    Weird problem going on! When I turn the wheel too hard whilst driving (say I take a corner a bit too tight), I get a steering wheel light, the ESP light, and the low tyre pressure light. They stay on. When I turn the car off they come back on, but then after driving a few hundred meters they turn off one by one and stay off until I take a corner too hard again.

    Need to get a fault code scan with VCDS mate...might have a loose connection somewhere or a ABS control unit issue...where are you in Australia?...VDUB.

        Could be a dying steering angle sensor.

          Without scanning for fault codes it could be a number of different things mate....if its happening all the time then you should get it sorted..if its just once every 6 months then worth leaving alone......VDUB...
