On my 95 highline the ABS light cam on and the brakes had been feeling a bit spongy, then occasionally the kinda 'farted' through the system. So I thought they needed bleeding.

So bleed the brakes at the weekend and they feel much better, the 'farting' hasn't return (yet) but the ABS light is still on, well coming on now, it only comes on intermittently..... So I am thinking I haven't bled the brakes properly/enough??

Does this sound right? Also what order am I supposed to bleed the brakes, I thought it was furthest away from the reservoir first then working closer?

Thanks in advance

As mk3anni has said its not going to be the brake pad warning light as that is a different one to the ABS light. Will hopefully just be a sensor playing up, check the wiring and contacts for the one playing up (found through diagnostics like VAG-COM) and maybe give the contacts a clean.

Ive had ABS problems on my VR since ive had it (nearly 4 years) and im starting to think its probably the ABS pump at fault now as the sensor has been replaced already but its only interrmitant so luckily never seems to be on for the MOT ;-)
