Hi Guys, I'm experiencing some intermittent electrical problems with my MkV GTI.
Three dash lights are coming on intermittently. The power steering, traction control & wheel pressure lights have been coming on and off, either from start up or while driving.
1. The power steering warning light (yellow) will come on (& off) if I turn the wheel left or right while driving.
2. the traction control turns off (indicated by the yellow dash light) and cannot be turned off.
3. The tyre pressure indication light comes on and cannot be reset.
Then they go out with no problems till next time.
Local dealer (at Maitland) charged be $114 to check it and commented that it may have something to do with the battery being disconnected causing a fault. They cleared the fault but problems came back a couple of days later.
I've owned the Golf since new, 115k on the clock.
Hoping the forum may be able to point me in the right direction and I've recently lost my job so having an idea before going back to the dealer may help to keep my costs down.
Cheers
