ABS control module location

Featured Replies

Does anyone have an idea where the ABS control module/pump is located on the 3.6 FSI engine? I've read everything that is accessible to me, I have the diagrams and whatnot, and I can't find the thing even if my life depended on it ... I even browsed through the photos I took while doing the DSG oil replacement and some other maintenance on the engine, the module is nowhere to be seen (and it is a really distinct piece of electronics, hard to miss it)

Found the thing (my car is LHD) and it is very accessible (yeah, right) ... it has a fault, and I'll probably have to replace both the pump and the controller ... it is a 3T0907379C and I remember having read some sort of discussion that there are slightly never versions that offer something more in terms of features (I have HHC already on the "C"), can anyone shed some light on that?

I think it would be safe to assume that the ABS module is dying ...

Managed to find the exact controller/pump (used), hopefully it will be delivered by the end of next week and I'm looking forward to a hassle-free installation and coding ...

  • 3 years later...

Any epilog? I have a seemingly similar problem..
