Hi,only had my s3 a few weeks and already come across a potentially big and expensive problem
with all the snow we have had i was finding it hard to get anywhere in the car,then my mate said that only the front wheels were giving any drive.i had noticed the esp light lighting up here and there.Anyway i got a mate who has vagcom to see if anything was showing,here are the results

audi tell me its a £900+ part, which i simply cant afford at the moment
anyone tell me if the esp control is part of the abs pump?as i read somewhere it was possible to disconnect the connector the the abs pump and check there wasnt any crud built up on the connector,is that likely or am looking at a new part?
its a 2003 car by the way
