Just put new wheels, tires on my car...19's with tires 235/35/19, soon as i put them on and took it out to see any issues, the driver side rear wheel/tire making some horrible squeaking noise that just kept getting worse as i just drove the car around the block..ABS light and traction control both came on and stayed on as well (doesn't sound good, expensive) my H20 is ruined it seems.

Ran the vag com on her and it says "AWD control module J492 no signal/no communication" I'm pretty sure I'm just driving around in fwd only right now.

My traction control light came on today, and it's just...on. I am not sure what that could be. I checked to make sure the maf was on snug, Other than that I'm at a loss. Scanned it and found no codes relating. Just the dumb convenience center module.
View 19 RepliesGolf IV R32 :: ABS And Traction Control Lights Came On - AWD Still Works?
From what I've read it seems this combo of lights usually stops the awd from working. However the lights came on and as a test I did a few hard 1-3 pulls listening for wheel spin... Nothing, all traction and pull.
What may be causing these lights? Hopefully I can get my vag com to work so I can scan it. Planning on checking the fuses and connections on the battery too.
Golf/GTI VI :: ESC Faulty Traction Control, Came On In The Dash
Just did the trans mount in my car hooked it all back up and "esc faulty traction control" came on in the dash MFI display, esc & steering wheel(airbag?) light in the dash. I scanned it no codes. Is it something that goes off on its own or do I have to disconnect the batt again and some sort of cycle procedure?
View 1 RepliesGolf/GTI VI :: Are ESC And Traction Control Deal Breaker?
I am currently researching a new car to get. It will most definitely be a hot hatch of some kind. But there is one problem, the traction control and ESC cannot be disabled on the Mk6 and Mk7 GTi's. This is a huge problem for me because I plan on spending between $20k-$30k and that's a decent chunk of change so I better be having $20k-$30k amounts of fun. It's been well established in other threads that there is no way to disable the ESC without a flash or voiding the warranty (or usually both). I just want to be able to occasionally compete in autocross or handbrake turn around a corner or drift through the snow. Or even more occasionally, I like to put serving trays under the back wheels and lock the handbrake and do a little parking lot drifting. Those things are what makes FWD cars so great, and if I can't do that then I should just get a AWD car or even better a RWD car. I don't want to spend more on a new car to be able to less with it.Most of the contenders allow me to do this. FoST, FiST, Mazdaspeed 3, even the Mini Cooper S will all allow me to do this if I want to but the GTi won't as far as I know. So my question is, Will the ESC kick in and ruin my perfectly executed handbrake turn? Will the car even move if I've locked the rear wheels on serving trays? Will it automatically brake when I try to kick out the back around a snowy bend?This stuff may sound pretty trivial to be deal breakers but I really like VW's and want to get one really bad, but I am not so sure about it when they are so crippled by the nannies and may be forced to look elsewhere. Does ESC/traction control ruin a good time?

I put in a new air filter today, 2003 GTI vr6 24v, and three lights (Check Engine Light, Electronic Control Power, and ABS) all turned on and haven't turned off yet, I'm not sure if I plugged in the sensor wrong or if there is something else that needs to be done. None of the lights were on before.
View 4 RepliesGolf IV R32 :: Traction Control And ABS Light Coming On And Off?
I read a thread about this a long time ago and after searching for a bit I couldn't seem to find the info I needed. I am having my traction and abs light come on and off occasionally and I think it's due to the sensor up front? I read that often times when suspension is installed, the sensor gets damaged and causes this issue, is this correct? Can I mend the current sensor or does it have to be replaced? what part is the actual piece that needs replaced?

I know this has been covered. but when i searched it was all mechanical failure.
My abs/traction lights come on together whenever it snows, and i lose both abs and traction control. But in the warm weather it is fine. it ocassionally happens when it rains (but a lot less often)

View 1 RepliesGolf IV / Jetta IV :: ABS And Traction Control Light On
I was pulling out of school the other day and my abs light came on and so did the traction control light, noting was going on at all. I was driving in a straight line. Everything works perfect i have no issues just lights, about 2 months ago. I did coilovers rotors and pad all the way around and a new abs sensor on the drivers side because i smashed it when installing the coilovers. I need to get it fixed because I cant pass inspection with the lights on and I am curious to find out if something is actually wrong with it. My uncle drove it and said it makes a noise when you turn and he thinks possibly the cv joint is bad on the axles? He said because of the excess strain from the drop.

View 4 RepliesFord - Mountaineer :: 2006 - ABS AND Traction Control Lights Work In Low Traction Conditions
I need to troubleshoot a problem with the ABS & Traction control lights on a 2006 Mountaineer Premium with 126,000 miles. During the year that I have owned the vehicle this problem has occurred every time it is driven on a long trip. The previous owner never drove on longer trips so has no experience with this problem.
When you drive the vehicle around town and on shorter trips (less than an hour) there are no indications of problems. The ABS and Traction control lights come on as part of the start-up check cycle and go off. The ABS and Traction control work in low traction conditions and the lights function correctly when either one is activated.
The unusual behavior occurs on trips longer than an hour. Typically after about 1 1/2 hours at highway speed both the ABS and Traction control lights come on as well as the Wrench symbol in the message panel. It you hit "Reset" the Wrench symbol goes away but the ABS and Traction control lights stay on. The brakes work normally. I do not know if the ABS and Traction Control will work. I have never been in a low traction condition when the lights are on.
Both lights stay on until you stop the vehicle and turn off the ignition. When you restart the vehicle the ABS light is on but not the Traction Control light. When you start to drive the vehicle the ABS light goes out immediately.
After about 1/2 hour of driving both lights come on and the Wrench symbol displays in the message panel. Whenever you stop the vehicle and restart during the trip the cycle repeats. The day after you finish the long trip everything is normal for driving around town and on short trips.
Golf/GTI VI :: How To Completely Disable Traction And Stability Control
Is there any way to completely disable traction and stability control. I know pushing the button is supposed to disable stability control but I was told that you can't actually completely disable it.
View 5 RepliesGolf IV / Jetta IV :: Traction Control Light Remains On
My car's front bumper got ripped off this week , parking spots on the grass pulled it off) Ever since then, I've been having weird ass issues. After it happened, I zip tied it back together and started to go to town when my car kicked itself into EPC mode, but only when I went on the throttle. If I let off, the EPC light would go off, but the traction control light would stay on (ESP light, whatever). I killed it and realigned the throttle body (I think that's what it is. Where you hold the brake and throttle in for about 30-60 seconds while the key is on but not started then kill it and restart it) and after I did that, it will start and only stay alive for half a second then die. It's started to make a god-awful crackling noise as well in the engine compartment near the Alternator.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Front End Clunk From Traction Control?
I was driving my car and forgot to turn esp off, hit boost in 2nd gear and the traction control did it's thing. didn't notice anything while driving so I didn't think anything of it. once I got home to back into my driveway, I noticed that when I turn the wheel sharply (at a standstill or very low speed) there's a clunking coming from what seems like the passenger front. I'm hoping it's not the inner cv. What it could be? I know for a fact it started right after the traction control kicked on so that's what caused it.
