I've had Brake/ABS warning recently on my 1.4tdi.
A bleep accompanies the rectangular centre panel flashing with the red "Fault in the Brake System". At the same time the amber ASR/ESP symbol comes up on the LH dial, and the amber ABS symbol on the RH dial.
When this does occasionally happen, it is always triggered by pressing the brake pedal, and stays on until I switch off ignition... when it usually (but not always) starts behaving normally when re-started.
The car had new rear brake shoes and a rear cylinder (at same time as cam-belt kit and water-pump) 20 weeks/1250 miles ago at my regular non-specialist garage, and 6 weeks/660 miles ago the same garage stripped and adjusted the rear brakes while carrying out a service.
Since then, the handbrake travel has increased and has to be cranked up pretty high to hold at all.
Brakes seem to be behaving as normal, though have not tested the ABS out.
MOT is due end of November.
Anyone got any ideas as to possible causes, or able to offer a checklist in order to track it down?
