Yeah so it hummed for a few seconds but on my output tests using obdeleven, it hummed for a long time. I got the connector off, it was much easier than expected, no signs of corrosion. The cable was fine, I learnt that trick a bit late. I got a used pump from a breaker for 70e (including shipping). Got it changed at a garage, the job was very easy as you said, I could have done it on me own. Guy charged me 140 for the job including coding (not sure if that was even required, feel like he fleeced me there). All's well now, hopefully I don't see that error anymore!

Thanks @Alasdair1 for the quick reply. I checked the fuses, they all look fine. Did the voltage test too. No signs of wear and tear on them. I did an output test today with my obdeleven, I could hear the pump humming and it was vibrating when I touched and felt it. Could it be a jammed pump? I tried the loose gravel breaking again but it is still there. I found some on my the marketplace for a 50, do I try it? My only concern is the bleeding, I don't want to deal with it now, I'd rather give it to a mechanic to fit it.

please delete this, wrong forum. cannot delete it

So, I have this 01276 for a while, was told need a replacement ABS pump, its a 2010 Octavia did not spend more than 2000 euro to buy it last year. 300k+ miles on it now. I don't want to spend 500-800 euros on a pump fix. Last night I took it for a spin. I found a spot nearby with loose gravel (secluded area, no traffic). I did a couple of hard braking there to force my pump to work. To my surprise the error went away! Did a couple of km's on the dual carriageway, all good. But the error came up today morning when I turned on my car. I checked the fuses and relays earlier, all looks fine. Is it the pump acting up? Electronics seems fine? Should I try the hard braking again? I want to get the NCT done (this week, due in November) and drive it for a while before upgrading (cannot afford to spend more, just spent 800 on it on a rocker cover leak and other suspension related stuffs on all wheels). Cheers! ABS module: 1k0614117s

So I got the ECU mapped leaving the valve off, intake flap off as well and not sure why did the lad turned off the P0101.

So I have the EGR deleted today. Did a test driven on the dual carriageway. Nothing popped up. I'll check again tomorrow on way to work.

Thanks man! I will check it out.

Will cleaning the valves do it? I was hesitant to touch it since it's in the most inaccessible place.

Hi! I drive mostly dual carriageway to work, 40 km one way. I get this P0101 when I approach a roundabout (i.e. when I have to slow down) while driving at constant speed. The first time this came up was a couple months ago when I threw in a bottle of cleaner with a full tank, I drove on the 4th gear at high revs close to 3.5k for around half an hour. And since it has been coming up every single day. I don't feel any difference in the drive. I have replaced the MAF, got one from the breakers. No luck. What could it be? My MAF readings are always in range and as should be. It's a 2010 diesel mk2 1.6. Thanks!
