My Octavia has developed a strange fault which the dealer can't repair. First sympton is flashing brake light with associated warning buzzer (always 3 buzzes) which seems to happen at randon - ie not associated with brake use. Very intermitent fault. Sometimes it stops at this, other times lots of other warning lights flash in sympathy, occasional loss of power to speedo, rev counter and panel lights. Sometimes airbag light then remain on (to be removed by dealer). On worst occasions red STOP warning appears in display.

During all this, car handles as usual, but the light display is disconcerting and the buzzing annoying.

Presumably there is some kind of bad electrical connection? It's been to dealer several times - thought they had fixed it but it's happening again now.

All help appreciated!

Welcome to the forums matey - I'm sure someone will come along in a bit and give you some advice...

I'd get it checked out with VAG COM and find out what (if any) fault codes were thrown up. Might give you a start line to work from...

Welcome. Hope you get it sorted.

Hiya.

Probably better to post this in the relevant Octavia 1 or 2 forum so we know a bit better what we're dealing with. A 54 plate car could be either after all.
