Hi. Took the plunge and bought a 1997 300tdi XS at the weekend. (Thanks for previous buying advice). It's great. Had it 4 days and the ABS light came on(?) Brakes still work fine until I dropped my daughter off at Brownies tonight, set off again, came to a junction, pushed the brake pedal and had no brakes for a few seconds! Scared me senseless. The brake pedal vibrated like the ABS was working and then the brakes came back on again. After that they were fine but the ABS light is still on.
Any thoughts? (No ice or oil on the road and the tyres are good). Not keen on driving it if the brakes can disappear. Any advice on why the ABS light has come on? (Just serviced before I bought it). Is it ok to drive with the ABS light on? Please help settle my nerves. MarkJ
