Problems with my MK4!!!

[Mike_MK4]

Having problems with my MK4 and I can see that i'm not alone!!!

1st, the Reverse Lights stopped working, changed the bulbs but nothing happening.

Then the indicators stopped working but they did work when i used the hazzard buttons. This then stopped after 2-3 flashes!!

But it does still flash when i lock & unclock the car with the remote key fob!!! Now...1 get one flash on the hazzard, and when the alarm set/resets!

The rear suspension bushes have gone and the exhaust has come loose underneath ( doesnt blow, sound different or hang low at all) so need to get it reattached in the centre section this weekend.

The screen detailing MPG, temp etc has started (1-2 per week) not coming on when I switch on the ignition so i have to stop, switch it off & back on again and it miraculousy works again!

any ideas about how much it would cost to fix this?

A friend recokons the electric fault might be the relays??? or switches as they supposedly common on these models?

Reverse lights will probaley be the wiring at the switch on the gbox

Hazard switch has gone I suspect - new switch is about £30 from the dealers - you replace the whole switch

Reverse lights could be down to the switch.
