Car-loss Teves

I have just been for a diagnostic at the local VW dealer. The VW said I require a new ABS Unit repair kit. I was wondering how I go about getting them to pay 100% parts + 100% labour seeing there are loads of other people having the same problem and it is a common fault with the units.

I think you are probably referring to the brake pressure sensor in the ATE Teves Mk 60 ABS/ESP module. VW dealers now routinely fix this from around £435. But if your VW dealer wants significantly more you can go to www.ecutesting.co.uk
