So I charged the battery for a couple of hours and attempted to start it and all went good but the yellow s/w light and esp light were on ... no worries always happens after battery removal ...
Next vcds check, loads of faults that had not been there before so I removed them and all good
Now take car up the road to get rid of s/w and esp light ... esp off s/w still on ? clear with vcds fault shown torque sensor implausible signal ... clear this and and take for drive no problems no light steering working fine until I switch off ignition and restart, yellow wheel goes off and then comes back on before even moving ?
Check vcds same thing torque sensor implausible signal so I check sensor settings all working as they should left to right + - 1.15 steering feels fine terminal 15 OK basic setting OK
The only thing I did have happen was when one of the legs was off the hub dropped from the supporting block and pulled on the speed sensor wire (no physical damage seen ) but just saying. I checked with vcds and all speed sensors are registering OK .
My only theory is that possibly a wire from the sensor to the rack has pulled ? or flat battery has caused a coding fault ? Car drives fine steering fine just the blasted yellow steering wheel
any ideas much appreciated
