I just thought I'd let you know that I've also had a Teves Mk 60 ESP failure. Having read the forum on honestjohn I noted that I met the 'criteria' (i.e, under 5 years old, under 60, 000 and full main dealer service history) on my 2005 2.0 GT TDI MkV Golf. Armed with this info I went to Newbury Ridgeway VW where, after diagnosis, they confirmed I needed a new ABS Pump that would cost £1,600. I pointed out the growing numbers of problems reported online to be advised that “less than 1% of cars” are affected and that VW would make “a contribution.” They then came back and told me the “repair would be undertaken and we'll discuss the price afterwards.” I rejected this as I wasn't prepared to commit without knowing the final cost. After more haggling and a chat with the dealer manager about VW strategy and brand loyalty I was advised they would carry out the full repair at no charge to myself. Maybe I was lucky but I’d suggest that if people go to VW armed with the evidence that it's a widespread problem and are prepared to stand their ground they may get a favourable result. I've subsequently informed VW of my disappointment that their first line of action is to try and recoup costs on what is now a widespread problem rather than hold their hands up and repair FOC.
