ABS or Traction control problem , may even be a flat or low tyre

  • Author

it shows a failure on the rear left wheel, the abs sensor was replaced and the bearing was replaced in the set.

You have not given much information so some questions to help with replies.

Where they replaced correctly ana with with correct parts?

Where they the correct parts to replace or was the diagnosis process (if any) wrong or incomplete?

Where the error codes deleted with correct scan tool or car driven for a reasonable distance since new cars fitted?

Why was the bearing replaced, has that part of the car been in a bump?

Do you know the current and past state of charge of your car's 12v battery, preferably using a multimeter directly on the battery terminal posts a good few hours after the car has been parked up?

Even if the headlights seem bright enough and the engine starts the battery can still be in a state of charge too low for the computer systems to be happy with and they can throw up all sorts of unexpected warning lights, messages, unseen codes and causes all sorts of unexpected issues. This may not be the cause of your lights but a battery in a lower state of charge can also hinder diagnosis and cvause other issues.

You don't say what model of 2018 VWÅ koda you have but you could look in the forum relevant for that model and year and see if other owners have had the same or similar issue(s) and see what the outcomes were.

I hope all this helps.

ETA: where is your location, roughly if you would sooner not say, inside or outside of the UK as being an English language site with mainly UK contributors the models and situations maybe slightly different in the UK to where you are that members posting don't know about and may have some bearing on the answers.

the bearing was replaced, diagnostics showed that the problem is in the last left wheel, however, the bearing and the sensor were also replaced and again it shows that there is no problem with that wheel..lp

The only proper way to test the health of a battery is to do a load test on it. A battery can show a satisfactory Float charge ( sitting turned off ) but when a load is put on it they just die. Been there had problems with a Passat that looked good till the load was put on.

So the bearing was replaced because diagnostics showed problems were at that left wheel but were the diagnostics complete and correct because you still have the warning lights. The point is how thorough were those diagnostics, was there also another issue or issues in addition to what was found or were the diagnostics wrong, or have different or new issue(s) arrived since the new parts were fitted, or it might just be a computer reporting issue. You may not know and people answering on the internet can't know as the car is not in front of them and don't know the history behind this, hence all my questions.

I assume, so could well be wrong, that your first language might not be English but you can get text posted translated from, and to English. I don't know what you mean by "vrs turns on my lights while driving and shuts off" unless you mean the warning lights go off when you drive but are there when you turn the ignition on?

Yes true, you make a good point but when I'm dealing with a stranger until I have more information I start with the simple, easier, quicker stuff (ETA: not that I know anymore than that anyway) that one person can do by themselves with simple inexpensive equipment - as you know some of us, me in your case, need things typed out slowly (in capitals). 😉

As you've lighten up I'm sure we can rub along, different people work at different levels, and are different people, this can be hard to gather and judge from just what's typed and as we've experienced misunderstandings can happen.

I don't know if you can see my signature panel but in it I put that I am not a mechanic or expert in anything and often put that everyone should check and cross reference any information from any source, including manufacturers, but especially from some bloke on the internet (more so if that bloke is me) so I'm happy to bow out or take a back seat on any thread when others bring better information and advice. Some car owners think 12v battery means 12v at the battery and if the engine starts the battery is "good" or at least not low in state of charge. Others have insisted that the alternator will always cope with keeping the battery sufficiently charged with just driving the car, even frequent short distance use and they were experienced and knowledgeable about car electrics and charging systems (I only have experience).

Of course the state of charge of vreka's battery may not be an issue or really related to the problem(s).

If you have any ideas about vreka's problem(s) please post them, you don't seem shy (and perhaps lost any NZ reserve you might have had now on being on the big island) and your approach might be (much) better than mine, fresh perspectives are always welcome.
