I have a 2005 A3 Quattro and the ESP light is on.
Further investigation next week but initial diagnosis points to the ECU control unit on the rear axle.
I believe that a replacement part from Audi is very expensive, so question really is any ideas? Any recommendations for second hand or repair? How vital is it, ie can you run without it?

Many thanks.
