These codes popped up during a search on the Carista app, can anybody clarify as to what they are as I've searched online and can't seem to locate all of the code definitions.

 

Should I be worried that my car is going to explode into a million pieces? I've read on a few of the SEAT and VW forums that Carista faults should be taken with a pinch of salt? I mean how can the ABS be linked to the camshaft?!?

 

It's a 65-plate Octavia TDI VRS.

 

Thanks

Carista is being rubbish and giving the wrong description for the ABS error code, it's actually a common TPMS fault code...

 

As for the others:

- 131586 suggests a low battery voltage at some point

- 05898 I've no idea about

- 263442 could be an alarm issue

- 204546 means one of your keys may have a low battery

 

If I were you, I'd make sure the TPMS system is set properly (after checking the pressures) and replace the battery in your keyfobs. Then clear the fault codes and rescan in a week or so to see if any come back

Batteries and phantom faults.  Nightmare.  Take your VRS for a long spin around Liverpool, charge up the battery, clear the error messages and as @langers2k said - rescan in a week.
