You might well get some symptoms if it is intermittent, from the 4Motion. I did.Thanks. I thought probably a sensor as the van drives fine and there hadn’t been any obvious incidents on the road to cause damage. I had covered a lot of miles so the debris suggestion could be relevant.
It has been intermittent. Anything I can do to clear this at home @WelshGas ? ThanksYou might well get some symptoms if it is intermittent, from the 4Motion. I did.
Mine was intermittent then became permenant. During the intermittent phase there were occasions where pulling away seemed as if the brakes were on. I believe this was due either to the ABS or Haldex responding to an abnormal sensor output. Once the lights were on permanently the drive was fine.It has been intermittent.

Thanks for the info. I’ll get it booked in to the garage.Mine was intermittent then became permenant. During the intermittent phase there were occasions where pulling away seemed as if the brakes were on. I believe this was due either to the ABS or Haldex responding to an abnormal sensor output. Once the lights were on permanently the drive was fine.
Carista showed N/S rear sensor. I checked for any debris, the wiring harness - all fine.
When in for its service VW were unable to confirm the diagnosis as their computer system requires a connection to a VW mainframe. Anyway I told them to replace both rear ABS sensors, although Carista said only one was faulty. Contrary to others who have said it’s a simple 5 minute job, both sensors were well and truely immovable and basically had to be removed piecemeal. Took a few hours by my garage. I changed both as it seem when 1 rear fails the other soon will and I’m off to Norway in 5 weeks.
Mines not a true comparison, it took 3 hrs to get both out whereas it should be literally a 30 minute job as the sensor is unplugged, locking bolt removed, sensor out , new one in, locking bolt and plug in. Obviously the vehicle is jacked up and wheel removed and replaced.@WelshGas. Back from the garage. ABS sensor as you predicted. Waiting for a quote. How much did you get charged please?
