eznow - Mine is the exact same with the pump on vagcom showing hi all the time! Had any joy since you posted this? Cheers buddy

Well I tried it afterwards and no fault coming back up with steering angle, I know the tracking needs doing but still no ESP light returned!!

Yeah Westy, not got the logs yet tho just waiting for my pal to send them through, All sensors seemed to be recording near enough the same data all the time so don't think there is an issue there, The reason i'm thinking pre-charge pump is because it never made a sound when running through the...

Right, update time.. Got the car on Vagcom last night and esp light was being caused by steering angle sensor so reset that and light went off, checked ABS Wheel Sensors and everything seemed ok, went into 22-AWD and done the output test and it ran through the pump stuff but didn't hear any...

Thanks very much buddy its appreciated, another tube of haldex oil it is then!! Nice one mate will have a good browse through the link!!

As the title says does anyone have a proceedure for replacing the pre-charge pump on a 2002 S3 BAM Engine?? Does the Haldex oil need to be dropped to carry this out?? Thanks James

Yeah its a sh1tter!! These things are like a money pit!! One thing after another! I know VAG lovers wont like me saying this but I've mostly had jap cars before this and never know so many things to go wrong!! Sensors sensors and more f'kin sensors!! My subaru never went wring and was drove how...

Thanks Erf, so did you sort your issue out?! Been reading through but didn't see you sorted it yet? How annoying is it!!!!!! Thanks again for the input!!

Thanks pal, Do you know exactly what I need to do in Vagcom to check these, also how do I test / reset the steering angle sensor (YAW Sensor?!) incase my pal doesn't know and I can explain it to him as I havnt a notion of how to use VCDS!!

Anyone any updates on fixing this problem recently?? Does anyone know how hard / easy it is to change the complete rear diff / haldex, also would any haldex coupling / rear diff fit as I have a spare off a MK1 TT I am thinking of fitting but want to be sure it'll fit before taking mine...

Bump/

Klappe what exactly does thie fuse look like or how do I know which is which? My car has the battery cover misssing and I dont recall any fuses on top of the battery?!? You wouldnt have a pic for me to check against would you? Not with the car at the moment! Also Westy I dont have vagcom to...

Cheers Westy, tried that today and didn't change it but now it feels really like the rear dragging again, serviced the haldex and changed the controller but didnt work, then I thought it was at the front now it feels like the rear locking up again, only light I have on is the ESP light...

I did consider this Blackie but no oise / knocks as you'd expect from a CV joint?!? I've had them go in other cars and got a load of knocking on turns before hand!!? Thanks for the input buddy

I'll second this! I changed my springs as the front passenger snapped, only when I was replacing the rear ones (they were lowering springs so changed them all obviously!) did I come to find the rear drivers spring had snapped!! right near the top and looked like it was just fractured until I...
