Hi guys anyone know a simple fix to my esp warning light staying on i have a 03 cupra r and after taking off to fast from a junction my esp light came on and has been coming on and off itself the last few times out?
Will take it to seat dealer if not, anyone else had this problem?

EEEEHHHHH?????

MAF related??

Have you checked your brake fluid level?
Does your brake pads still have the wear sensors on them?
These might be low or old end not connected to stop the light.

JS , thats what i thought too , but somehow they are related

The ESP has to know engine load...this is calculated by the MAF!

Hi guys thanks for the replys!

The engine management light is not on no but its sounding like the maf by your replys
al put it to the dealer anyhow and pass that on cheers

Ps do you think the light coming on is actually turning off the ESP???

my esp light comes on at random, even though it stays on when it does until i turn the engine off and back on again .Read the codes and it stated 01435. Now alittle research has shown this to most proberly be a abs sensor, but some have stated whole abs control unit ( ouch!)
Question is if it is the abs sensor which wheel would it be? does the code tell you that? my rear passenger wheel sometimes seems to be a bit hotter than the other back one and i did suffer with a bit of brake binding some time back until i replaced the brake disks, pads and gave the calipers a good clean up and lube.
