Description of the problem | I have a 2005. 5 audi a4 2. 0t quattro which has encountered a failure of the abs/esp electrical module. The result is failure of the esp system and the abs system. This is the result of a faulty electrical module which many forums describe as a frequent occurrence and as a result a redesign by the manufacturer. The audi part is ~$1900. Based on the experience of many owners and the safety implications i would expect the manufacturer to cover the costs of correcting the defect. |
