Too Many Cars
Registered
It has been a long time since I have posted on this forum; however I have several problems (hopefully all related) on my 95 MK8. I am not even sure if this is the correct area but here goes.
The car sat for a long time (over a year) and displays these symptoms. The Air Pump doesn't come on at all. The car is sitting about an inch lower (I think from memory) than park height (definitely not slammed) at all four corners (not too bad for sitting so long I guess). I DON'T get an air suspension error message so I doubt the problem is the relay. I tried the self test for the air suspension and nothing happened. It almost seems that the Air Suspension computer is either dead or it isn't receiving power (maybe fault signal is an active high?).
I do get an ABS error message. Another clue is that my turn signals don't work (bad ignition switch?). I took the car for a ride and it drove OK for a car that needs a front end rebuild (the front end and an oil leak between the oil filter adapter/block when cold) are the reasons for it being parked. Before sitting these symptoms were non existant.
I did a search and didn't see any thread that matched these symptoms. I figure that since the weather is starting to get warm I would look into troubleshooting these problems. Have any of you encountered this/these problems. I tend to think/hope that the problems are symptoms of one problem.
