[Vwdiesel] 2001 TDi GP bridge & wheel speed sensor error codes

[Tad]

Rolf - if you still have the original GP harness (bridge, I think), change
it.  The original style was a bad design and would result in intermittent GP
faults due to loose/corroded/whatever connections.  The current part is
redesigned and much better.  You can tell them apart by appearance - the
original has a smooth finish from end to end, the new style has a
'segmented' appearance.
For the wheel sensors, you should probably try cleaning them before changing
the sensor.
