Hey Guys,

This weekend i lifted the box on my 2003 Mk4 golf V6 4 motion just to see how throaty it would sound. For a While it was driving fine and i was enjoying the sounds Until. . . . I was putting foot on a straight stretching it a bit when the car bogged down. it still drove but power was intermitent. i looked down and ECP , ESP and Engine managment lights were on :( Anyways got home and checked it out and the pipe to the air box had pulled off the throttle( this would explain the bogging down because of the Air flow meter being mounted on the pipe) we fitted the pipe back and power was restored.

The Issue now is all these warning lights are on. If anyone knows the Reset Sequence or something to clear the Errors i would be very happy( I have tried disconnecting the battery for 3 hours which does not work)

I was a bit concerned with the ESP light being on but apparently this may be cause by a brake switch issue? My top brake light is not working.

Thanks guys

the faults clear them selves after a certain amount of time my esp fault went after 5 days as for the ECP light ive heard many stories of this getting broke by changing your air box as it breaks the mass air sensor which is why i wont put a kit on mine. ive had to had an air sensor changed in mine and a ECP chip after the air sensor broke!

esp light can come on for many different things

as soon as ur ESP light comes on ur t/c is turned off

the Esp system is linked to the many of the cars systems it cud b a long long list without a vag com that is the only way of finding out whats goin on with ur 4motion and as for the back wheels pass as the system is very complicated a vag com will again tell u that i think?
