ESP light + lack of power?

Post by Connor_S » Thu Jan 13, 2011 5:53 pm

Driving along today, straight road doing 50-60mph not accelerating and the ESP light came on, a while later, went to accelerate and nothing happend the car just continued at the current speed. Pulled over and switched the car of , started it again and everything was fine again.

Any ideas what happened?

Electronic glitch - worth doing a VAG-COM scan for fault codes. Will most likely show an intermittent problem, which if it doesn't reoccur is nothing to worry about.
