  • Big problem trying to sort out

    hi all, i have a Big problem trying to sort out, my engine management light is on, i had it in to the garage (not vauxhall yet) they found its coming up with brake sensor fault, suggested cleaning up connections and change the brake disks and pads due to corrosion over the disks etc, seemed to have cured it for a few days and now its back on,the garage did say it might be abs pump which could be faulty or just needs an update (which only a vauxhall dealer can do)

    Any one had any experience in this or any suggestions how i might go ahead in fixing the problem?

    Thanks in advance

    Surely if it was ABS related the ABS light would be on not the engine light did it come up service vehicle soon on the display. It does sound like a trip to have it diagnosed properly.

        Strange but that might be it unless there is a engine code as well i know vauxhalls dont always work well on obd readers unless its a proper vauxhall one.
