My car just beeped at me 3 times and both the '( ! )' & 'ABS' lights came on and stayed on untill i re-started the car. I presume this means low brake fluid?

What should i be topping it up with?

if you wanted good fluid to bleed old stuff out I have MOtuk RBF600 in stock @ £5.99+vat/500ml bottle

presuming your fluid is in fact low and some other fault has'nt popped up.

Well its done it the last 3 times ive driven the car, and it happens when i 'boot it', so i'm guessing the oil level is sloshing below the sensor?

I'll get off my lazy

in a minute and go check the level :)

I'm rubbish at bleeding brakes so i'll just top it up for now :)

know anyone local with vagcom?
the reservoir isnt that big and cornering wont make any difference as its only extra fluid up there mainly. it sounds more like your abs sensors are dicking about, try power hosing in and around the back of your alloys it could be brake dust clogging them.
