Tonight i braked quite hard and skided a little i felt the abs kick in then after this happend the light stayed on for the rest of the journey home. Turn the car off then on again then there was no abs light on..

Hmmm faulty sensor maybe? Mine came on after i plained on some water, now its on permantly. Broken sensor.

You need to VAG.com, see if there is any faults. If not. Look up the sensor change thread to show you how to test your sesnors.

Failing that, pump? or i dunno...

Try the multi meter bit on this to test them all if you dont have VAG.com

I know this is a old thread but worth a try before starting a new thread. I`ve also been getting a vibration/clicking noise from brake pedal/bulkhead area when braking lightly usually just after start up. Also sometimes when almost at a stop it will brake harder than needed (i`m sure the abs is kicking in as i can feel it through pedal)it does this when my abs light is not on yet when the light is on it seems ok. Also the vibration/clicking noise happens when light is either on or off,From what i`ve read im guessing abs ring for the vibration clicking noise and  brake load sensor valve for the unpredictable braking whilst travelling slowly.(less than 10mph)
Forgot to say its a mk3 Gti 2.0 8v 1996, Any help muchly appreciated as i imagine driving might get a little tricky soon as we get some ice on the road!
