    Hi all, I have a 2003 VW Passat 1.8T AWM engine FWD Automatic, 138k miles. I was getting onto the highway behind a semi and had to floor it to merge, upon accelerating, the car clunked very hard once and both the CEL and ASR lights now remain lit indefinitely. The car also shifts QUITE rough...

    I have a donor car with 'ASR' button. What constitutes ASR hardware (except obviously a button and a harness)? Is it different ABS controller? Some sensor? I want to transfer it to a car without ASR.

    My Anti skid cuts out power during slow turns (15 mph and up) it's getting to the point where I just defeat it by hitting the button when making turns. Any suggestions as to why this is happening? Thanks!

    As the title says, my ABS light and the ASR light came on the other day and stayed on. This has never happened before but I have a feeling that I may have dislodged something when I removed the bumper (to remove the headlights, stupid system but whatever). As far as bumper removal, I had to...

    I've been looking through the forums and I can't seem to find an answer to this problem... Only on gradual, left turns when I reach about 50kms/h (ie. a highway on-ramp), my ASR light starts flashing and I can no longer accelerate, until I hit a straight-away. It doesn't flash any other times...

    Yesterday the ASR and ABS lights came on on my 02 Passat 1.8T. I have been reading up on this, and this seems to be a fairly common problem and most people get their ABS controller rebuild. However, a couple of things seem to indicate that the controller is still OK. When I start the car, it can...

    Need some help with my 2002 1.8T Passat. About 2 weeks ago I cranked up to leave work, got about 1/2 mile down the road and there was a bang. Sounded like I ran over a piece of metal but there was nothing in the road. I had just reached full speed (60 mph). My ASR light comes on and power is...

    Greetings, This has happened a few times over the past year and a half. I'll start my vehicle (2001.5 1.8T Variant) and the ABS and Anti-Slip Regulation warning lights stay on and the warning bell chimes 3 times. Then the lights go out, and the car drives and stops fine. I can go months without...

    I just took a trip that totalled a little over 500 miles with my 01 1.8t AUG. I had the ASR light come on a few times which was immediately followed by a little engine hesitation - the ABS light never came on. After coming to a stop, the engine would run a little rough at idle here and there...

    I recently replaced my ABS module with one repaired by ModuleMaster. Everything runs fine, no faults on my engine or abs modules (reading with Ross-Tech and VCDS) but it used to be that when my tires would slip, the ASR light on the dash would flash and the ASR would slow my wheels down, now I...

    My 2002 Passat GLX 4Mo Wagon just has a blank below the driver's seat warmer controls Other Passats have an ASR or ESP button there Does anybody know how the 4 posts on the back of an ASR switch work? Is it really just 2 poles, top two are the same and bottom two are the same? If I want to...

    Well I've never really had an issue with my ASR in the past, let me give a quick backstory. Had 4 matching M+S rated Michelin tires all around, 225/45/17 Someone stabbed my rear tire a few months ago, so I got it replaced with all I could find on the budget at the time, and put a 225/55 on, 10...

    I pulled a whole slew of codes off my car using the free shareware version of vagcom. Here the are: So, the car does not seem to have a steady issue. The CEL will come and go (fairly rarely) but recently I've been getting the ASR light on every now and then. I'm thinking it's definitely an...
