SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK:CONTROL UNIT/MODULE
THE ABS AND BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON, THE TRIP COMPUTER DISPLAYED "STOP", "BRAKE FAILURE" AND "SERVICE MANUAL" LIGHTS, AND THERE WERE A SEQUENCE OF LOUD BEEPS. AFTER TALKING TO THE VW MECHANIC, WHO READ AND LOOKED UP THE DTCS, I DISCOVERED IT'S A PROBLEM WITH THE ABS CONTROL MODULE. THERE IS A REPLACEMENT FOR JUST THE CONTROL MODULE AND NOT THE ENTIRE ABS UNIT, MODEL NUMBER 8E0-998-375-G, AVAILABLE FROM THE VW DEALER FOR $686 PLUS LABOR COSTS TO INSTALL. STILL, MY CAR ONLY HAS 63,000 MILES ON IT!! IT IS A 2000 VW PASSAT 1.8T. *NM
