Problem after driving in the wet

[Faisal]

yeah so last sunday i decided to check out the MFI car park in hamilton to see if there was any action up there.nothing unfortunately

the problem is,i noticed all of a sudden my traction control light came on,so i made sure by doing some tokyo drifts,and yeah i had no traction control. quite odd,no idea how it happened.

and also iv noticed something which has nothing to do with the traction control go wrong too. when unlocking my car,i press it once to unlock the driver door,and then again to unlock the rest of the car.but for some reason i cant unlock the rest of the car anymore. just the driver door,no matter how much i try.

could this all be linked to a problem with the circuitry or something? im taking my car in to the garage to get a VAG diagnostic done..

You could try reseting the ECU, which might help. (Battery off for 10mins or so)

This might not be a permenant fix though.

car has had some work done,battery was removed for that.but that didnt do anything

I think this may be the 'flux capacitor' actually.

"Flux capacitor" LOL, did u sort this?? Was it da MAF??

does your c/locking work when you use the button in the drivers door? and just not with the key fob...? if so i may have a soution to that one for you because mine did it a while back and the dealer sorted it under warranty. i will have to ask them what they actually did... however i need to go and pick my car up from them this afternoon so i'll ask.

i got it back working again,it just randomly decided to start working lol...and i got the traction control reset by a vag cable
