    My steering wheel is also cocked to one side... I hear it could be rear road trailing arm bushes? Anyway, I'll book her in soon and will let you know...

      Hello guys,

      Quite right in saying that the pressure sensors are the most likely cause of these warning lights coming on. There are 2 sensors on the master cylinder.

      As quoted below the only way to tell which one is causing the problem is to use a diagnostics and disconnect a sensor to see which fault code shows as currently present.

      will either list them as 'Pressure sensor 1' or 'Pressure sensor 2', Or fault codes 5E20 & 5E21.

      The warning lights will come and go as the fault is present/not present. This differs from EML light for example, this will stay on unless the fault has not occured for 3 ignition cycles in which case it will then go out. Airbag light will stay on until faults are cleared by diagnostics.

      As for a steering wheel not straight, could be a number of things but its usually an issue with the front axle, not the rear.

      We look forward to seeing you down at Munich's to get it sorted.

        I had DSC and Handbrake light come up on dash this week. GT1 showing 5E20 Pressure sensor 1 when checking quickly. Just need to unplug and find which one it is.

          Pressure sensor 1 is closest to the firewall...

            Update

            Unplugged both my pressure sensor connectors and noticed a very small amount of fluid around them both. Decided to clean both for good measures although only one was showing as faulty, allowed to dry, plugged back in, cleared fault codes, test drove and haven't re-appeared (yet). Hopefully problem solved. :thumbs:

              Sometimes it's the simplest solutions that work best :beer:
              Saved yourself almost £100 and the hustle of replacing that pesky sensor positioned nearest the bulkhead, as well :-D
