Hello,

First of all you thank you for your help in easing me into my first Skoda - I've just bought a Fabia Estate 1.4 TDI and your postings on this car and Fabias in general were a great help. I've had it for a week now and love it!

I'm sorry to ask for help in my in my first posting...I've just got back from the garage with my partner's Fabia VRS (06 plate 53000 on the clock). The traction control warning light keeps coming on after a few miles driving - (about 7 miles on the motorway and 4 miles on other roads). I'm not sure if it's distance or time related at the moment or whether that's a complete red herring! It disappears once the car is restarted.

My local garage put it on a diagnostic machine and it came up with the following fault code: 18265 load signal error message from EMU P1857 intermittent. They think it's a fault on the EMU - they're not sure whether it will need to be replaced or whether the faulty component can be changed.

I would be grateful for any advice you could give me.

Thank you

Hello and welcome

On the vRS when the ignition is on do you get a battery light?

Hi, thanks for your reply. I don't think so - the car's not here at the moment but but I will check in the morning. So far as I can remember all is normal until about 10 mins into a journey when the traction control warning light comes on.

Thanks
