When i start my ibiza i get no light but soon as the boost comes in from -vac the abs and Tcs light come on...

the idle when it 1st starts seems strange and it went in to limp mode last night 5psi...for about 20mins even with turning it off and on then after the 20mins wen i was near home i had the lights still but then had full boost

goin to see if chris could get it vag-com'd today

We are just guessing till you get it vag-com'ed,Danny.

I had the same light on when my MAF was shot though.

but those 2 lights come on with many many codes.

I had this when a fuse blew (the red one in second row iirc, i made a thread on it with pics) I was also running limp and had both lights on.

All i am trying to say is that we will not be able to point you in the right direction without guessing

Yea, thats why I said "We are just guessing till you get it vag-com'ed".

We could be here all day guessing, and thats all we will be doing, guessing.

Once we cleared them we went for a drive and the ABS and TC light came back on, but no fault codes appeared when we plugged it back in

My ABS and TCS lights came on not so long ago.

No limp mode or problems though with the running, no vagcom codes either - i dont have any ABS or TCS though (which made the snow interesting)

Im guessing i have a dodgy abs sensor or wire - ill have a look soon, it may be that?

Before you go replacing anything Danny just check your fuses as Reuvers said. Most likely the red number 8 10amp fuse. Then clear the codes afterwards if it has blown.

abs sensor, i know thats what mine is, as needed a new hub, got one really cheap and quick, and doesnt have the asb sensor parts on it, so both tc and abs lights are on now
